were discussed. Announcement and reports
were made as follows:
a) The Summer Barbecue for the Club is on August 11, 2013 at 11:30 a.m. at Devon,
Alberta. It was announced that we need 4
extra prizes for the barbecue at Devon, which will have our annual 1/64 scale
drag race. Hamburgers and smokies plus
beverage will be avail for paid members. However the 1/64 drag race has a $5.00
entry fee per person..
b) Availability of Canopies – Jim Kennedy said that we needed 2 more canopies for the show n
shine. Members were asked to bring theirs if they can
c) Broadcast/Advertising News – Kellen Kennedy said he had arranged for some items for our Show and
Shine, and to have the event advertised on radio. The Mall has arranged the
advertising on the radio and paid for it, saving the club lots of $$$$$.
d) Our Show and Shine will once again be at the Northgate Shopping Centre in Edmonton. The total number of awards which will be
given out to winners is presently at 24
e) Northgate Mall – It was announced that the Northgate Mall will help with publicity
for our Show and Shine.
f) Show and Shine & other News – Jim announced that the Show and Shine will
have vendors who will be selling automobile products, such as car polishes and
waxes, etc. Jim confirmed that the Super
Chevy Show, which is produced by an organization in the U.S., will be having
their Alberta Show on September 1st Labor Day long weekend and it
will be held at the Castrol Raceway. Maybe we can have some members & their
vehicles appear at this show…
g) Blackjack Premises at Nisku – It was noted that we prefer to have our
meetings (which are to be held in the Blackjack premises at Nisku from here on)
on the second floor of the Blackjack premises. Having food brought up to the 2nd
floor will be discussed with Clarence for next meeting..
h) Liability Insurance – Jim announced that the insurance covering our club activities is due
and it will, according to Jim, likely be more expensive that last years. A Motion was made that we pay the necessary
premium and the Motion was PASSED. This covers our insurance for the year 2014.
i) Flowers for Funeral – Jim Kennedy announced that former Club Member’s wife, Mrs. Joyce (
Horst) Urbaniak, had passed away. Jim said he arranged for flowers for her
funeral.
