SOUTHWEST METRO MUSTANG CLUB
WWW.SOUTHWESTMETROMUSTANGCLUB.COM
Getting Started
the moment we have the
weekend of July 26-28, 2019
on hold with the MCA as we
work with two hotels on getting a venue chosen. More
details at the June club meeting.
I apologize for the newsletter being so late, but May
was a blur and June isn’t
slowing down. The highlights
from May: the All Ford show
on the 15th was far and
away our best show. See the
details below. A fantastic
day all around; We added
nine new member households
in May—another record
breaking effort; We had a
strong showing for the May
cruise to the Veit Auto Museum with 18 cars and 33 people attending.
Our quest for a national
MCA show continues. We
have missed the opportunity
to host a show in 2018. At
The upcoming cruise to the
Fagen Fighter WWII Museum
should be great as we will be
getting photos of our cars with
a P-51 Mustang. Thanks to
Dan Nicewander.
See the tid-bits section for
more activity and news.
There was one low light over
the past month. I was disappointed in the club attendance
at the NF Upper Midwest fund
raiser on June 4th. The club
had a total of three people
show up. The NF folks were
nice enough to give us a shout
out, but I was hoping for a
better turn out after months of
advertising the event.
May All Ford Show Recap
We had an absolutely great
show on May 15th! There
were 117 registered cars
and easily 200 spectators
for the show. The weather
was a little chilly but great
nonetheless. The boy scouts
served good food and essentially ran out of most
items by 12:30pm. We had
enough cars and trucks to
award all 36 trophies. This
was by far our most successful show as a club.
I want to thank all those who
helped put the show together
and those that helped Saturday and Sunday to make the
show go smoothly. A special
thanks to David Kronk for
getting the club's online presence to be a difference mak-

er in building awareness of
our activities. Lastly, we
need to thank all the companies and organizations that
contributed to the show especially Apple Ford
Shakopee for their sponsorship and support. Check out
the pictures on Shutterfly thanks to Anthony Sagat and
Jeff Mattson for the great
photos.
We will have final financial
figures for the show at the
June club meeting, but the
amount should be in the
$1,200 range.
See page XX for some sample photos.

Home 952-898-3366 Ask for Dan
Cruise Invitations
Dan Nicewander has set up Google calendar to
send invites to club cruises (and possibly other
club events) via email. The plan is to send
everyone on the club email list an invite a few
days after the previous month’s cruise, and a
reminder invite a week before the cruise.
Club members just need to reply to the invite by
selecting “Yes—I am going”, “Maybe”, or “No”. The
invite serves as a way to make sure everyone
knows about our cruises, and also a tool to gauge
interest and attendance. The June cruise is the
first cruise to be scheduled using Google. As of
this writing we have 19 cars with 29 people
planning on attending the cruise. Nice to know
ahead of time for planning.
Take advantage of the invites when they arrive in
your in box.
SWMMC June Cruise
The club’s June cruise will to the Fagen
Fighters WWII Museum in Granite Falls on
Saturday June 11th. The club will rally at the
Fleet Farm in Carver with a departure time of
8:00am. It will take about 120 minutes to
drive to the museum.
We will have the opportunity to get pictures
of the club and member cars with a vintage P
-51 Mustang fighter. VERY COOL! We will stop
in Sacred Heart for lunch after visiting the
musem. See page 7 for more details.
Let Dan Nicewander know if you plan on
attending.
