PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE...
The “55” Portland Roadster Show
is over and was a huge success.
Most car owners and vendors were
glad that it was moved to the Expo
Center. Move-in-and-out was a lot
easier. RCC had five cars in the
show, and all took some kind of
award. I want to thank so many
RCC members for volunteering at
the Roadster Show. To put on that
BIG of a show takes many people
each day.
At the April 21st meeting we will
do our mass mailing, so plan to
come to Northside at 5:30 PM. We
will mail out over 2300 flyers from
the Planter‟s Days Cruise, Wooden
Chicken Cruise, and Beaches.
Maybe the weather will improve and
someone can think of a fun
Bumper-to-Bumper Cruise, so we
can get our classic cars on the road
and enjoy some much-needed
sunshine.

more shows”. The next Wooden Chicken meeting will be at Chet and Mary Jo’s home on April

A happy marriage is falling in love
many times with the same person.
Communication is the key to love, trust,
and harmony. As prayer is food for the
soul, lasting love is greater than gold.
