several club events this year, it appeared

workers to perform the activities required

days prior to those events. When this wa

last minute phone calls and/or send e-ma

number of workers. Most of the time, bu

yielded adequate staff to perform the req

case, the events did not go nearly as smo

number of workers were available.

As you know, Ruth Ann circulates sheets

volunteers to sign up to help out during u

of volunteers sign up on these sheets, the

time without requiring extra effort by tho

these sheets to indicate your willingness

ensure that our events run smoothly with

occasionally been hesitant to sign up bec

commitment scheduled for the same date

has happened to you as well. So, if at all

your personal calendars before or while a

have scheduled events that would conflic

to use our signup sheets at the meeting an

doing event planning for our club easier.

Personal Notes

Continued prayers for our Lou Ann Chipman, Larry Jobe, and Janice Casey as they recover fromtheir shoulder surgeries.

An update from member Pat Hardy. Recovery from shoulder surgery is not for the faint hearted,especially if one is older. Have been back in hospital twice since then and now am trying to get betterafter 7 days of feeling very, very bad. Take heart, Lou Ann, I think there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Prayers for former OSC member Ann Gregory on the passing of her dear husband, Dennis Gregory.Continued prayers for Noel Sheffield as he recuperates from his Carpal Tunnel surgery and wife Donna

as she battles Chronic Lyme Disease with new medication.Prayers for Brenda Hockaday & Bertie Moore for upcoming cataract surgeries in their other eye.

Let’s Take a Drive to the Quaint Little Town of Floyd, VA!!

Activities Director: Thinking originally that we could do this earlier in the year but the weather didn’tcooperate so we are gonna give it a try now! Perfect time for a drive in the mountains!

On Saturday, September 1st, we will take a drive up Hwy. 8 to the quaint little town of Floyd, VA.Drive your Classics, if you can! Some of us have been there before but we have quite a few new memberssince then and this is such a fun drive and cool little town for everyone to experience.

Upon arrival, we will go to the Downtown area. The recommended first stop would be the Floyd CountryStore where, starting at Noon, they have their “Americana Afternoon’ from 12:00 – 3:00 pm. The music isvaried, but has the common thread of Americana, traditional acoustic music. Some of it is indigenous,including bluegrass, or the music of contemporary singer-songwriters; you might hear the blues, or some ofthe Celtic or African sounds that underpin our American folk traditions. And … this Country Store has lotsof good stuff to check out, too!

Saturday lunch at the Country Store is a special event. Pick up one of our homemade soups or sandwiches,or a plate of farm-fresh salad and find a table near the stage. (Don’t eat too much; reserve your appetite forthe Pine Tavern Restaurant later in the afternoon.) This is a free event.

Then you can wander this cool little mountain town and all of its unique shops until 4:30 pm and then wewill go to the Pine Tavern Restaurant, 611 Floyd Hwy N, just a short distance from the Downtown.

“The historic Pine Tavern was started in 1927, withold state Route 221 running behind the restaurant.Originally, the Pine Lodge served meals in theirlobby. The fare was similar to what you can find intoday’s Pine Tavern. Most of our recipes are fromMama Nell, my grandmother. These recipes weretested by me every Sunday for over 25 years in a small town, much like Floyd, in the shadow of thebeautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. We hope that the same feeling of family, hospitality, history, and heritageis imparted to our guests.” –Reed Embrey

Family Style means sharing food as you would in your own home. Meats are served on platters andvegetables in bowls. Family style includes all the vegetables on the menu, it includes extra serving of meatsand vegetables if so desired. It includes your beverage and cobbler.

All meals come with Fried Chicken and one other meat for $15 per person, two other meats for $16, get allfour meats for $17 per person. Entrees: Fried Chicken / Country Ham / Roast Beef /Pulled Pork. Andserved with family style, Real Mashed Potatoes, Dumplings, Green Beans, Pinto Beans, Cole Slaw or Salad,Extra Vegetable or Fruit of the Day, Buttermilk Biscuits, Family Style Dessert, Homemade Fruit, ChocolateCobbler.

Sooo … with all that being said, we will meet in Walkertown at the shopping center at Hwy. 66 & 158 atthe BIG ICE MACHINE between Wendy’s & Sheetz, LEAVING at 9:30 AM. It will take us about 1 hr.45 min driving time and we will stop about mid way for a “pit stop.” Since we will be eating around 5:00pm, allowing for a leisurely meal, we should still be able to drive home before it gets dark.

PLEASE RSVP ASAP to me, Ruth Ann Ronchetti at … ra_ronchetti@usa.netor … 336-817-6553.

A Little Bit of This & a Little Bit of ThatFYI – We will no longer be collecting old car magazines. Our member that was overseeing that will nolonger be able to do it. Thank you for your support in the past.

FYI – The Auto Enthusiast Personalized Products Form that is attached further in this newsletter is anupdated form from our friend Tricia Linville, owner of Framed Impressions here in Kernersville. Tricia hasdone all of our Folly Car Show awards, Dash Plaques, our Purple Heart Show awards, and special projectswe have needed in the past and she does such a great job. For any purchases that are made from this list, shewill graciously donate 50% of the proceeds to our OSC treasury! What a deal! These are great products, wepersonally love the Koozies and Key Fobs that we have for our Classics!

FYI – Note the North Myrtle Beach “Fun in the Sun” Nov. 1-4 information and registration form is alsoattached again. We wanted to remind everyone about it since the Registration Deadline is next month,September 30th. Carol & Benny Huff were at our Cruise-In last Saturday and Carol told me that if we get 10members from our club to attend, they will knock $10 off of the Registration. (I am guessing that it will bein the form of a refund since we wouldn’t know if 10 registered till after the fact but I guess we will findout.) Y’all … This is a REALLY fun event to attend! John and I have been to the previous five that theyorganized and thoroughly enjoyed every one of them! ‘YA NEED TO DO IT! Get those Registrations in!(And then let me know, too, please!)

FYI – Next month at our Kville Cruise-In, we will have our ExtravaDance kids back for another greatperformance at 5:30 pm! You won’t want to miss it!
