| Minutes-OBR for May 2013 A dinner meeting was held on the above date. Paul Dimbath was asked and gave the blessing. Then President Kerr led the pledge of allegiance. A lovely meal was then enjoyed by all. The business meeting commenced at 7:15 PM. The minutes from the previous meeting were acknowledged as read and accepted by the membership. Don Allen gave the treasurer’s report. He also referred members to the latest copy of the Antique Automobile and to the articles concerning our recent winter meet and the article by Paul Dimbath and the one by Earl Beauchamp on Judy’s 1971 Buick Riviera. Paula Dimbath thanked everyone who donated goodies for the hospitality room. Paul also made some comments about the show and thanked everyone again for their participation and help. The May birthdays are: Greg Rager, Don Allen, Judy Briley, Katherine Kurash, Ron Laird, and Steve Nason. President Kerr thanked Norman Mathews and Katrina for all the drinks and setups for the dinner. President Kerr announced that Bob O’Hara has sustained a bad accident, the membership was encouraged to send cards. Also Fran Reiter is doing better. She also brought up the subject of the labels discussed at the last meeting and that we need to have one or more contact members put on it. President Kerr announced that a deposit has been made to hold our reservation to the restaurant, Elmo’s and Linda’s for our Dec. 7 Christmas party. Our next club car show will be March 15 in Haines City. It was agreed that there will be no formal judging, instead we will have door prizes, Chairman’s choice, President’ s choice and possibly others to be decided on at a later date. It was also agreed that there would be no charge for more than 3 cars. President Kerr announce that Bob Lewis will be the chairman for the show. Norman announced that his son is in touch with the Sun and fun show discussed at the last meeting which will be Nov. 15 & 16 at Linder Airport. Katrina said that anything with a motor is eligible to enter. Katrina Dowdy won the 50/50. Then a powerful rainstorm ensued and the power in the meeting room went off, so Jim Emmitt made a motion to adjourn and Tom Kerr seconded it, all agreed, and the meeting was adjourned at approximately 8PM. Respectfully submitted, Roxie Lewis |
| June 12, 2013 Dear OBR Members, It may not be officially summer, but the weather (and Tom’s health) has kept us from attending two Cruise In events. First it was Winter Haven and then Davenport, the skies opened and gave us a good dousing. I have it, thru the grapevine, that Lake Alfred has ceased their shows until fall. This is our month to meet for lunch or dinner as our monthly meeting, so we will be traveling (for us in the North part of the county) to Avon Park on June 22. We will meet in the Olympic Restaurant, 504 US Highway 27 N, Avon Park, Fl 33825. The time is 2:00 p.m. and hope all can attend. LeeAnn Laird was kind enough to make the arrangements for this event. We do have several members in that area who travel to us each month so it is our turn to take a ride. They would like a count if possible so would appreciate knowing if you think you can attend. We will have a short business meeting after we eat. John Weaver has checked on our status for use of Lake Eva park for our car show on March 15, 2014. We are still on the events board and he does not expect it will change. He will watch any changes for us. Thank you, John. Speaking of the car show, Bob Lewis has agreed to be our show Chairman. Thank you, Bob. If he calls you with a position, please consider taking the position. We, again, will need all of you to help. When we all pitch in with the work it will not be too stressful for any of us. I am looking for activities for the coming months. Don has a speaker for our July meeting but the only activity would be the Winter Haven Cruise In. Call me with any ideas so we can discuss it at out meeting. Glad to hear Fran Reiter is getting along much better. I know we all look forward to seeing him at future meetings. Also the “First Man” is doing well after getting a stent on the 30th. It was a surprise but he is getting along much better these days. Remember, I had a very nice serving fork follow me home from out last meeting. If it is yours, I will have it in Avon Park. Looking forward to seeing you on June 22. Peggy |
