Upcoming Events

December

NO FISH IN DECEMBER! We next meet at the Windmill Inn in Nehawka as a club Friday, January 25. Take the time at the end of the month to enjoy your family. Should you choose to search out a small town restaurant for a holiday meal remember that the good people at the Windmill Inn have treated us very well. If fish had been held, it would have been December 28. If you have no obligation that evening, you might just show up at the Windmill Inn.

It won't be an official club meeting but it might be fun! No matter which winter holiday you celebrate, may you and yours find the greatest joy which is a part of this time of year.

Breakfast is December 8 at Mahoney State Park. Next month Breakfast will be January 12. Breakfast is about 9:30 a.m.

Ice Cream is Thursday, December 13, and Thursday January 10. Ice cream is at the Baskin Robbins at 70th and Pioneers in Lincoln, and begins at about 7:30 p.m.

NEW EVENT

The first Sunday of each month at 5:00 p.m., P.O. Pears on the Lake will have a Classic Car People Rally. There is no park permit needed to come sample their famous burger madness specials, and you also get free Coke refills. The event is open to all people whose club is a member of the Car Council (that includes us).

The cafe is located on Branched Oak Lake in Area II. This is 3 miles north of Malcolm, off Highway 34, or 4 miles west of Raymond, off Highway 79 at 10005 West Davey Road. This is a chance to mix with other car clubs and see what they do. Give it a try.

From the President's Garage

by Marvin Marshall

Merry Christmas, fellow car nuts! This year has really shot by the way to fast. Seems like only yesterday I was planning to get Sue's Bugeye out of the alley and into the Presidential Restoration Centre. Maybe next year. Besides, her side of the garage is full of car seats and upholstery material. Did I mention that Jim Danielson and I are now proud owners of a Hillman Minx and almost two 1958 convertible Rapiers? They were gifts from Rev. Greer of Beatrice. He is a long-time friend of Ben Anderson and Bob Bredwell. Steve Espelund, Bob Shaw, Bob Bredwell, and myself hauled two car trailers and two pick-ups full of goodies back to Dr. Danielson's storage facility. (And Jim actually thought he'd make money "renting" storage spaces!) I bought the upholstery rolls and the padding with the money I had put aside for some Austin-Healey parts. After all, I don't even have the Healey ready to work on and this deal just sorta popped up. You know, gift horse in the mouth and all...

On to other subjects before I end up sleeping on those Hillman seats. First, I want to say thank you to all the club members who entered their LBCs in the showing at SAC Air & Space Museum. It was a great showing! I especially want to thank Jerry Needham for his hard work and dedication to bring this show to reality.
