I think that spring has finally arrived. The trees and flowers have started to bloom. The grass is

turning green. Hopefully we won’t have any more snow until next winter. The beginning of our busy

season of car tours, displays, and parades is just around the corner. We have many events already

scheduled for this year. “ON THE ROAD WITH YOUR MODEL A”, found in the newsletter, will list

most of the activities the Club will participate in. Another good resource in the Eastern Nebraska

Western Iowa Car Council Book which has listings chronologically by months. Contact Linda Buckley

or our car council representatives (Dick W. & Bob C.) if you need a book. A special outing this year

will be attending a Salt Dogs baseball game. Sounds like a lot of fun. Thanks to Dave Allder for

arranging this event. I’d like to encourage members to participate in as many events as you can,

with our without your “A”.
