March 2016 President’s Message

The Colonial Region March 2016 President’s Message reviews the February 2016 Meeting, upcoming anticipated events, and details of the March event:

“I know it isn’t actually spring yet,  but as I write this, the trees are growing fat buds.

Ioka Farm has already boiled OVER 100 gals of maple syrup and the daffodils are up.

Soon we will be uncovering our antiques for another year of cruising.  Some have been out already.  There are several “rat” rods in this area and they don’t worry about the salt on the roads.

The February meeting at the Nichols’s home was well attended with several guests.

Brian Siplo joined while there, so we welcome him into our club.  Thanks go to the Nichols for hosting.  We worked on the meeting schedule and have some good suggestions.

However, no one is available to organize a meeting for April, so we will skip that month, unless there is a volunteer soon.  The May event at the Thompson Speedway sounds exciting.  Bruce has been working hard to organize the event.  Driving your old car on the track is very enticing.  June will be at the Crook’s in Rhode Island.

Don Palmer discussed the web site.  It contains upcoming events/meetings,  member’s car photos , cars & parts for sale, and technical articles.  You may contact  Don if you have items to put on the site.  He is willing to give help to anyone having trouble navigating the web site.

Next Meeting:

Sunday, March 20, 2016  at the Whitman home in Hancock, Mass. 3326 Rte 43 , near Jiminy Peak Ski Area (Approx. 5 miles from Rte. 22 in NY.)

Lunch will be at 1:00 at IOKA Farm for pancakes, waffles, etc. followed by our meeting back at the Whitman’s.   We need reservations at the farm, so please let Don and Judy know if you are coming.  413-738-5322 or gvebigman@gmail.com  by  March 16th.  Cost is $5 each for members.

Judy
