Paying your Dues
Automotive comedian Dick O'Kane (how's that for an arcane profession?) says that the main purpose of a car club is to collect dues. That is not the case although it may seem so.

Those of you who are charter members, it is now time to renew your $10 dues to our regional chapter, and some of you will also need to forward $25 to CLC, Inc. Remember, membership in the CLC, Inc., is a prerequisite for membership in our regional group.

Sympathy ... To Sonny Gray, co-founder of the Lincoln Club, whose wife died unexpectedly earlier this month.

April Meeting
The members present at the Historic Ale House overwhelmingly chose to continue on into next year with the current officers - me, Duane Medley and Bill Coleman. Thank you all for your vote of confidence and we pledge not to disappoint you. There was further discussion on the issue of membership chair and newsletter software before the meeting dissolved into merriment. Our master of the internet, Fred Hollins, won the Cadillac clock. I'm sad I didn't win but Fred is a deserving guy; at least I had it for a short time and will cherish the memory.

Eldo opp. ...
Potential member Kevin "Rocky" Holman informed me that rock artist Mellencamp wants to sell his white '56 Eldo convertible for $30,000 plus. If you buy it, maybe you can get John to autograph the dashboard - then you'd have a real collector's item. Call "The Rock" at 281-583-9931.
