SCCC OCTOBER VETTE FEST MEETING THIS SUNDAY, 8-1-10 AT POWER CHEVROLET

To all of those that are either on the car show committee or would like to help out in some way there will be a committee meeting to discuss show progress on Sunday August 1st at 12 noon at Power Chevy. I hope to see all of you there. As I have said at the monthly meetings there is much to be done and not a very long time to do it.

Thanks to all that have volunteered.

Joe Bria

SCCC President

Place:  POWER CHEVROLET

9055 W. BELL ROAD

PEORIA, AZ

Time:  12:00 p.m.

 

NOTE: VETERANS DONATION DRIVE SCHEDULE FOR NOVEMBER

We are starting to collect items to bring to Veterans home in November.  Please see write-up in Upcoming Events for details and list of items.

 

ANNIE OAKLEY SURE SHOTS

A few of the ladies have expressed an interest in shooting instruction so Tom Visinho has contacted Ben Avery Shooting Range to see what they have available.

Here is what they have:

The Annie Oakley Sure Shots program was designed by women and is hosted by women. It is held on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday evening of each month from 6 to 9 p.m.

Tom has been in contact with Nanci Hays and if we provide a list of the women and email addresses she will work with us to have a class in which all the ladies would be able to participate together rather than having each person register individually and not be assigned to the same session.

It is a free program, at least for the first 3 sessions.

Anyone interested, contact Carol or Tom Visinho and they will make the arrangements.

If you need a copy or want to be on the Social Roster, you need to fill out the Social Roster form and only the information you want available to fellow members and submit to Jimmy Mistretta.

MI2AZ@aol.com

NOTE:  The information on the Social Roster is for personal use only and not to be shared outside the club.

 

REMEMBER Your Radios!  (New members in particular):  Sometimes you will see the phrase to “remember your radios!”  Typically when we caravan, we use Motorola Talkabouts (or equivalent) to communicate between cars.  You don’t need them, but they sure come in handy!
