 Now that the City has cleaned the streets from all the junk leftover from our Winter, Now we can Cruise again  with No issues to our "rides"..

                                         

                                                                     

 There was some discussion on the plans for the Annual Show n Shine on August 26... These were minor and those present have spoken to be heavy on the volunteering side of things.. As the date approaches  the club will finalize these areas.. Jim to meet with the "powers to be" at NAPA in July to "touch base" with them..

Just to let ya' know, the 149st location has requested that all car clubs in Edmonton and their members do respect the parking in front of the SuperStore Warehouse till about 7 p.m..

Still seeking some membership renewals for 2023..

                                                                                         

 

It is with Great sadness to announce that one of very good members has passed. on March 11/2023 Gene Boisvert was taken from us.. His family have planned a celebration of life on May 17 @ the Woodvale Facility ( Millwoods Golf Course starting at 11 a.m.. Cheryl has expressed that the club members that want to come out with the cars be there for 10 a.m and you can wear your jeans and a Black T-shirt.. I am sure that Gene would like all of us to wear our "colors"...Apparently they have a reserved row for our group, if you plan to attend give Jim a call  maybe we can "cruise" down to-gether ( and avoid being scattered in the parking lot)..

                                                                                         

 

The club was at the Quick Times swap meet in March & received lots of interest, the club has a spot at the Stony Plain swap meet on April 29.. Drop by and say "Hi"..

We need assistance from the members make this event "run" smooth, too much to do with only two people... Event discussion at our May meeting...

                                                                                         

 

 A suggestion was made by a member present to hold the Monthly mixer at the A & W on 149 St/111 Ave on Saturday evenings..Sounds good !, we will discuss the idea at the May meeting.. May be better as the weather is muchly improved up here in the Great White North..

                                                                                           

 

There are still lots of areas in the city that have to be street swept, be careful when "cruising"..

                                                                                           

 

The May meeting attendence will be affected by the Oiler game that Nite. Thanks NHL !!!

     A brief discussion on 2023 edition of Bowties vs the World has held. 50% of last year's sponsors are returning so far

           and at this time we are searching for a new location due to the increased entries and location size...

                                         

 Most members have renewed their memberships but we are still accepting renewals & NEW Members (always)

       Only $25.00 per year ( includes cost of Insurance coverage when attending club events plus office operations)...

This meeting was a "open floor " type meeting, members discussed various topics.... The monthly "mixer" dates will be 

discussed at the April meeting..

                                                   

The club will be at the Quick Times Swap Meet this year (March 25) & at the Stony Plain Swap meet in April (April 29) to  promote the club...

The popularity of the Tri-5 Chevys is Still very strong, however finding part cars for our hobby is drying up in Western Canada.. We are all waiting for the snow to go and start cruising, there is lots of sand & debris on the roadways still, so be careful !!

 Next month we will be able to provide info on our Annual show plus others in the Area... Seems like there are many this summer..
