***Monthly meeting***

A brief note from Rick Aiello

I would just like to take a moment to thank all the people that made this summer season a good one. To all those who worked or volunteered in any way, Thank You. To those who were unable to help this year..Remember there is always next season and it will be even better with your help. Thank You to our sponsors for the car show namely Rite Aid, and all those who donated door prizes. Thank You to the Lee Town Board and  Bill Valade. Thank You to all the weekly sponsors of the cruise ins and especially Carbone Ford of Rome, Bob Cain and Oldiez 96. We accomplished much this year and we need to keep it going. We had our first car show at Lee Town Park, got our club t-shirts, we chose a club jacket, and printed our static cling stickers for members. None of this would have been possible without the chairpeople and volunteers who worked so hard…Thanks….
