<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><STRONG><EM>Hi
everyone!</EM></STRONG> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Dave McMillan
has just e-mailed me the breakdown of pre-registrations we have so far for the
Clark's Show. One figure showed right up, only about 1/3 of our
membership is </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>pre-registered. Just so there is no
mistake, even though we are the host club for this big
event, <STRONG><U>all</U></STRONG> of our members entering their cars in
the show have to register for this event whether we pre-reg for $15.00 or pay
$20.00 the day of the show. Of <U>all</U> the events we're a part of
over each 2 year period, <EM><STRONG>Clark's</STRONG></EM> is the
major fund raiser for our club's operational expenses. As such,
we depend on you, our members, to help out at this <EM>one</EM>
event. If you physically cannot attend the show there are other ways
you can help the club out. We need more small items to add to the
'give-away' bags we present to each registered participant. We are
planning on 80 and hoping for 100 show cars making this the largest Clark's Show
ever so if you are in a position to acquire at least 80+ of some small
promotional 'trinkets' we could add to these give-away' bags, please call or
e-mail me ASAP.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Also, if you
cannot attend but wish to help the club out, we can still use any and all larger
donations for our <EM>'Raffle Table'</EM> or the <EM>'Silent Auction
Table.'</EM> These items can be new auto related items.
For the Clark's Show 4 years ago, Joey Smiley walked into an auto parts
store, told them we were having a car show and he was looking for a
donation that we could use to raffle off. The fellow turned
around and presented Joey with a brand new 2 ton floor jack. We're
all not going to be that lucky but you don't know if you don't ask.
We'd more expect items such as car care products such as waxes, polish,
flashlights, shop rags, pre-paid gas cards, or other accessories etc. or new
non-auto related items that others present would buy raffle tickets on like
Yankee Candles, Avon products, Dunkin Donut cards, 'chain' restaurant gift
cards, etc. and lastly new items that could be donated for raffle or silent
auction that children would be interested in having their Mom or Dad buy a
raffle ticket on such as new games, radio control items, even matchbox
toys. If you need a club "letter of introduction" to
acquire any items I've mentioned, please call me at 508-473-7026 and I'll get
one right back to you. Please gather all the 'give-away', raffle and
silent auction table items you could acquire and bring them to the August
Monthly Meeting so we can sort through, categorize and box up any and all
donations to bring up to Clark's. If you can't get there Wednesday
night, just call me or any other executive officer and we'll make arrangements
to get those items from you before the show.</FONT></DIV>
