A Message from the PresidentWhat a nice turnout at the July meeting! There
were about a dozen old cars and many more old friendswho got another chance to chat, look at cars, and catch upwith each other before and after the meeting. This monthwe will do the same, with the meeting starting at 6 p.m.
The annual NHHAC picnic is scheduled forSeptember 8. The club will provide the main course anddrinks. We ask that you bring a dessert to share if yourlast name begins with the letter A - M and bring a sidedish if you are N - Z.
Please take a moment to thank Sean O'Neill for the great job he is doing as newsletter editor.Sean is moving to D.C. but has graciously agreed to stay on as editor until the end of the year. Weare in need of newsletter editor. Just send a note to Sean and he'll make it sound like an easy job.
Plenty of good weather in the forecast, so go for a drive in the old car!
