FROM THE PRESIDENT

First of all, I want to thank you all for attending the Day in Pompeii/Imax Day in Ancient Greece/eating at Felix’s/Shopping at Eastern Shore event. We had several club members on hand and the we could not have asked for better weather.

I’d like to thank everyone for the great turnout at the Valentines Cruise. James Alverson made some humorous observations on the trek from Mississippi to Louisiana. If you missed the meeting, you missed out on a funny tale!

March suddenly has become a busy month so please check our website calendar. You have SEVERAL opportunities to drive your Corvette!

Again, I want to stress to you that we make every effort to support our neighboring Corvette Clubs. Please drive carefully and try to attend all of the car shows. RSVP is quite important as reservations and purchases must be made in advance. If we only have 50 RSVPs and 75 people show up, it really throws a wrench in the machine.

Please note that the Holiday Cruise Line boat cruise to Mexico “final payment” will be coming up on March 6^th. A few rooms remain if any of you have friends, family, co-workers, or neighbors who want to attend.

Dorr’s Automotive March 3^rd.

NSCC Hood Chevrolet March 10^th

Vettes vs Vipers March 11th

Legends Car Show – 17^th

Fun in the Sun – 24^th

Cruisin the Pearl – 25^th

Minutes of the MSGCCC Meeting

Thursday, 22 February 2007

We had 45 members in attendance. Way to go, Gang!!

Robert opened the meeting by introducing one of our long, lost members from years past, Mr. Wayne O’neal (WayneO), the original voice of “Vettes by the Shore”.

Robert made the point that new members are entitled to one blue Club shirt.

Please see Jim Harrington about club shirts (we are placing a new order for Blue Shirts).

We welcomed a new member to our Club, Kellye Rushton. Kellye has a ’86 Red Coupe. Welcome aboard, Kellye!

All members are reminded that $10 raffle tickets on a 2007 Victory Red Corvette Coupe. Please see Ed Nunenmacher if you are interested in purchasing a ticket.

Our Club membership directory is available for $10 at each monthly meeting. New members are encouraged to obtain a form and fill it out for inclusion into the Directory.

Ed Nunenmacher gave a report on the visit to Mobile for the Pompeii exhibit, followed by lunch at Felix’s on Battleship Parkway. After lunch, a bunch of us boogied over to the Eastern Shore Shopping Center. Some of us spent a lot of money; most of us spent a little money; and some of us didn’t spend any money. But we had a good time none-the-less.

Jim Alverson gave a report on the Valentine Cruise to Catfish Charlie’s in Hammond, LA. There were a total of 65 Vettes in attendance.

Robert showed a short film on the dyno day in Lucedale. It was interesting and informative.

Rain is sending out flyers on all the Corvette events coming up in March. If you are planning to attend, please RSVP to Rain. (CHECK THE WEBSITE CALENDAR)

The Vetter Halves will meet at Jada’s house on April 1^st.

Robert again touched on the Carnival Cruise Line Ship Cruise in May. If any of you are interested in going, please contact Robert as soon as possible.

Ken Klein gave an update on Vettes by the Shore. Everything is moving along quite well. The show will be presented by the Mississippi Gulf Coast Corvette Club. Host clubs will be Crescent City Corvette Club, North Shore Corvette Club, and Greater New Orleans Corvette Club.

The Club’s visit to the Corvette Museum is scheduled for April 19-22. Microtel in Bowling Green will be the “Host” hotel. Robert will put out the contact information soon.

Member birthdays during the month of February included Darrell Suber, Mike Leeds, and Sharon Breazeale.
