I had a little space left, so I'm taking it to request something from our members.                   I am secretary for another year & need your help with the newsletter!!                                  I added a place for member news to this issue, please let me know what's happening with you over the next year. As you can see, it doesn't have to be car related, just member related. We all have things that happen that are interesting that others would like to hear about. Some of it's funny, some not. Some members tell  great stories when we all get   together for one event or another, but if you're not there you miss it. Why not write it down & email it to me, or regular mail works too, & I can use it for a front page article.      There is a lot of restoring, rebuilding, fixing, buying & the like that happens over the course of the years that would make quite interesting articles. Maybe you have a tale to tell about your car that  would inspire or help another member that's having the same problem or working on the same kind of car now. What about those articles you read in your magazines that make you go….Hmmmm. Send the article to me, & where it came from, and we can share it with others.  I can't make it to all events, if you go send me pictures & a little blurb about it so we can showcase all events.                                              This newsletter is for you & about you!!!!                                                                            So please help me make it what you want to see!       Thanks, Dayna Dechent, secretary
