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.

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.
