President’s Message
Gale and I were absent most of the month of May visiting family and friends
in Washington and Colorado. Actually, Gale went up to Washington earlier
in April to help her sister with her gravely ill husband. Ray passed away
several weeks ago. Ray had ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease).
We are home for a couple of weeks and then it is off again to the NCCC
Annual Convention in Tulsa, OK. This will be our first time attending this
event and we are looking forward to it.
I would like to express my appreciation to Bill Johnson and Chris Fanello
for taking the initiative by mailing a package to each club member with
information regarding upcoming events. What a team!
Please check the calendar of events for upcoming activities. Also, I
encourage everyone to take turns hosting a fun run.
Hope to see you all at our next club meeting on Thursday, June 5th. E-Board
will meet at 6:30 pm and general membership meeting will follow at 7:00
pm at Home Motors.
Thank you all for everything that you do.
Save the Wave!
