President’s Column
Hi, everyone!
I hope that the New Year has started off well for you.
The Holiday Party at Shelter Point Resort & Marina
was a HUGE success! I received many e-mails and
phone calls recounting how much fun various
members had. The venue, food, service and music
were first class. Many members came down to
Shelter Island a little early to see the Parade of
Lights launch just across the street from the resort.
And we were surprised by a visit from Santa! Thank
you so much to Diane McDonald and Nedra
Rummell for working their magic. The evening was
an absolute delight! Plans are underway to secure
the same venue for next year.
Welcome to our Officers and Board Members for
2005. Our club members thank you for your service
and I look forward to working with you all. The first
Board meeting of 2005 will be at 6:30 PM on
January 19th in the Cush Jaguar Board Room.
It’s time to renew your membership in the San Diego
Jaguar Club. Will you also take a few minutes to
complete the Member Interest Survey? The
information you provide helps us set the direction for
the club. We rely on your feedback to tell us what
types of activities you would enjoy throughout the
year. Please let us know what special skills you
have and how you can help the club. If more
members help out with just a few things we can
avoid a few members trying to shoulder it all. We
will be recruiting members in a few weeks to form
committees to support our Concours D’Elegance in
August. I’m looking forward to another year of fun
club activities and a chance to work with you.
The committee for Rolling British Car Day has
advised that the date for this year’s rally will be
Sunday, April 17th. Mark your calendars. This is a
short, fun, non-structured, untimed amble through
some interesting parts of the county in the company
of many lovely British cars and their drivers. The
day ends with a lunch. More details as they become
available. It’s always a fun day.
Enjoy life’s drive!
Hazel
Jack Bolson Neathercutt, owner of the Neathercutt
Collection and Museum in Sylmar, CA, also famous
for co-founding Merle Norman Cosmetics, passed
away Monday, December 6, 2004 at the age of 91. As
many SDJC members know, the Neathercutt has one
of the finest automobile collections in the country, an
outstanding automobile library, and a state-of-the-art
restoration shop. His wife of 71 years, Dorothy,
preceded him in death by just two months, on October 8, 2004. They developed their interest in cars early
in their marriage and began collecting automobiles in
1956. The first two cars in the collection were a 1936
Duesenberg convertible roadster and a 1930 DuPont
town car. Today the collection contains close to 250
automobiles, along with numerous musical
instuments, a 1937steam locomotive and a 1912
Pullman railcar.

JCNA Survey
On Page 6 of this issue is a survey from the JCNA. This
is the same survey as on the JCNA Web site. It has been
included in the newsletter for the benefit of our members who do not have access to the Internet or wish not
to answer the survey on-line. Please fill out the survey
and mail it in. The mailing address is at the top of the
survey. The following paragraph is a note from the
JCNA regarding this survey.
Dear fellow JCNA Member,
The information gained by this survey will be used to
show potential Jaguar Journal advertisers and JCNA
event sponsors, the effectiveness of working with the
JCNA. Determining our membership's involvement in
various types leisure activities, will guide us to solicit
help and Jaguar Journal advertising from the most
appropriate sources, resulting in further Journal
enhancement.
Jaguars are our reason for being, and Jaguar Cars,
being our largest single advertiser and supporter, is the
reason for the concentration of questions about automobiles. Your answers will be of particular interest to
them.
By asking your most and least favorite things about the
JCNA, we are soliciting your "constructive criticism."
The Challenge Championship, the JCNA's biennial
North American championship Concours d'Elegance, is
made spectacular, because it attracts the support of
many companies interested in doing business with you,
the members of the JCNA. To gain that support, we
need to show them that you are planning to attend.
Finally, your responsiveness will help guide the JCNA
board's future decision making.
Thank you!
JCNA Board of Directors

Re: Car Club Council of Greater San Diego (CCC of SD)
Over 50 representatives attended the December 7th
Car Club Council meeting at the Auto Museum. We had
first hand reports from President Bob Schlotter of the recent
SEMA show in Las Vegas, Nevada. There was a strong
emphasis at the show on after market tuner parts for
American and Japanese cars, or “Tuner Cars,” as they are
often referred to in the motor press. Additionally, Ford was
a featured manufacturer with special displays of the new
Mustang and Ford GT sports car.
The Auto Museum will begin a new display
featuring Italian automobiles beginning January 28 through
March 28, 2005. Marques in the show include Ferrari,
Maserati, Lamborghini, Alpha Romeo, Bizzarini, with some
others, such as Fiat and ASA. The current exhibit
celebrating Oldsmobile ends January 25, 2005.
Radio and television personality Dave Stahl will be
hosting a new weekly show on 800 AM, ESPN Radio, starting
January 2, 2005 from 7 to 9 am Sunday mornings. The show
will also be carried by www.wsradio.com according to Dave.
Discussion topics will cover all forms of motor vehicles,
including airplanes, bikes, go-carts, trucks and cars. Dave also
said that shows would be broadcast from remote sites, such as
car shows, or other auto events. Dave can be reached at KUSI
television in San Diego.
The next council meeting will be held at 7:00 pm,
January 4 at the Auto Museum. All Jaguar club members are
invited to come to any of the meetings to participate or just
observe. If you have a special event you would like to
promote, contact me and I will get you on the program for the
evening and you will have time to promote your event to the
club representatives and you can hand out flyers about the
activity.
Respectfully submitted,
Mike Partain

San Diego Jaguar Club (SDJC) Board Meeting Minutes
Cush Jaguar Boardroom, 17 November 2004
Present: Board members Hazel Beck, Len Sonnenberg, Nedra Rummell, and Grant Rummell

Hazel called the meeting to order at 6:40 p.m.
Board Reports
President:
Elections for the 2005 officers and board members were held at the November 5th dinner meeting. Paul Novak received no
ballots in the mail. All 44 ballots cast were done so at the dinner. According to Jane Anderson’s membership list, there are 177
memberships. The 44 voters represent 25% of the membership voting at the meeting. Four of the members voting did use the
ballots printed in the Jaguar Tracks. The other 40 were cast using the ballots handed out at the dinner. This is similar to the
voting in 2003, where the majority of the votes for officers and board members came at the dinner meeting. So in 2005, the
ballots should be brought to the November dinner meeting, as well as being printed in the October issue of the Jaguar Tracks.
Results - President

Next year’s ballot will be published in the October issue of the Jaguar Tracks. This year the ballot went into the November
issue.
Vice President:
Nedra and Hazel held a 1st VP Handover breakfast meeting with Carolyn Clark. They discussed Carolyn’s role as First Vice
President in scheduling upcoming events and the Christmas Party.
Reservations are pouring in for the SDJC Holiday Party. Nedra is going to send out a thank you e-mail and a last call for tickets
over the Thanksgiving weekend. Diane McDonald and Nedra have purchased the centerpiece decorations. The program for
the Holiday Party is being developed next week by Diane, Nedra, and Hazel. Nedra is also going to send out an e-mail asking
party attendees to bring new, unwrapped toys for the Polinsky Center.
Nedra thinks January social event should be casual and less expensive. All plans, if any, for the January social are TBD.
Tentative plans for the February social event is a lunch at Jasmines to celebrate Chinese New Year. Patsy Millard is working
with the owner to set up a private room for us with dragon dancers. The date is Saturday, February 12th. This is a joint event
with the Mercedes Club.
Membership Renewal forms for 2005 - Grant printed the membership renewal forms for Jane Anderson. They were sorted,
stapled, and stuffed into envelopes. A member interest survey form is going in with the renewal forms. These will be mailed out
the first of December. Address changes were submitted for Steve Boyle and Grahamm and Diana Timms.
There were no requests for new memberships.
Nedra passed out a Telephone Tree Roster sorted by area code. Over the past two months we have been discussing
Jaguar Tracks January 2005 Page 16
(continued on Page 17)
17 November 2004 Meeting Minutes (continued from Page 16)
reinstating the tree to help boost attendance at socials, drives, etc. This telephone tree is feasible if board members and
functional chairpersons are willing to make calls per the list in their area code. Grant wondered if we could use an automatic
dialer that leaves a message about an upcoming event and to call back the event coordinator. He is going to check on the cost
to acquire and set up such a system.
We received a check for $470. This was for the return of the $500 deposit check paid to the Admiral Kidd Club to reserve the
date for the 2004 Holiday Party minus $30 for a cancellation fee. Steve Boyle was reimbursed for a $500 check he paid to
reserve Shelter Point for the December 12 Holiday Party. The contract states the deposit was paid.
Hazel asked that the club have reserved parking cordoned off at the hotel for the Holiday Party due to the amount of traffic
expected that night for the Parade of Lights, the Rolls Royce Club dinner, etc. Nedra is going to check into this request.
Some of the costs for the party include: $65 per meal, $400 + tip DJ, centerpieces, and parking, coming to
$96 total, per person. Members are being charged $65 each and guests are $90.
$1750 is the projected subsidy for this year’s party. $1965 was last year’s total cost for the holiday party.
Roger Townsend suggested a different venue for the 2005 Holiday Party that might be more cost effective. He said the Navy
has many venues for parties open to the public. The clubhouse at the Admiral Baker Field was mentioned. Can we use our
own caterer or do we have to use in-house catering? Roger will get the description book and find out about the catering.
The Auto Museum dinner was a huge success. Nedra has gotten a lot of positive feedback about both the food and the venue.
We appreciated the owner of the Imperial House donating two tickets to a Mystery Dinner show to use as a Gold Ticket Drawing
Prize.
Secretary:
Katherine is Acting Secretary today. Paul Novak is out-of-town on business. He e-mailed Katherine the final version of the
minutes from the 13 October 2004 meeting. She printed them, made copies and passed them out at tonight’s meeting. Grant
motioned and Nedra seconded the motion to accept the October minutes. There was no discussion as everyone had previously
reviewed the minutes via e-mail and sent comments to Paul. A unanimous vote approved the minutes.
Treasurer:
The quantity of money spent and on-hand is about the same as last year. There is some money earmarked for Orson that
needs to go to the Zoo. Dues are down a bit from last year as we are 6 or 8 members less this year, plus we reduced the fee to
$59 for this year only. The dues are going back up to $65.00 for 2005. That should help increase the bank balance in 2005. All
of the renewed ads were paid. We earned $255 from the White Elephant sale to subsidize the cost of the Holiday Party.
Logowear showed a profit this year as we sold inventory purchased last year, especially at the Concours. The Concours also
made money this year. The newsletter cost more money to produce this year as it has a greater number of pages now. The
laptop was an extraordinary expense for 2004.
Grant proposed some changes to the tracking method for checks. No checks should be issued unless accompanied by an
SDJC check request. The check request would then be used as a tracking slip until the check clears the bank account. Grant
said he would accept a completed hardcopy in person, by fax or electronically. He wants this to apply to all spending.
With the elections, the signers on the bank account need to be changed. Len brought a new signature card for people to fill out.
The signers are the President, the Vice President, the Secretary, and the Treasurer. The following list includes both the
outgoing (2004) and incoming (2005) officers for the San Diego Jaguar Club. A copy of the final, approved minutes of this
meeting needs to be given to the bank so it will accept the signatory changes on the club account.

Jaguar Tracks:
Lesco Engine Rebuilders sent in a request for another three month ad for December, January, and February. Roger requested
that Katherine provide him with the ad format information as an 8 1/2 by 11 page so he could distribute it to existing and
prospective advertisers.
The December issue will most likely be late due to the Thanksgiving Holiday.
Old Business
The Roster production still needs help. Castle Phelps volunteered to help at the October meeting, but he still needs help.
Raffles needs a shopping person to take over for Diane. Hazel will check with Diane to see if she got a response to her Jaguar
Tracks ad yet.
New Business
The Board put forth nominations to JCNA for Jaguar Dealer of the Year, the Andrew Whyte Award and the Karen Miller Award.
They also voted unanimously and selected the SDJC’s Most Valuable Member for 2004.
