The Edmonton & Area 567 Club Sept. meeting held
Sept.3/2014
Minutes recorded by Bernie M.
August minutes were
reviewed by Roy M. ( Club Prez) & Accepted.
The treasures’s report
was given by Jim K. and widely accepted.
1 . Discussion on the
August 23rd Show n Shine Donation to Kids with Cancer.
The group has decided to donate $2,500.00
to the Charity.
There were 83 total
entries, 5 vendors and lots of walkabouts, our show seemed to be heavily
impacted by other events that weekend. The one area that causes concern is the
Show N Shine that has moved their date to the same date as ours, this has
occurred twice in 2 yrs.
The group is open to suggestions on how to handle this. It is noted that for those who do support our event, that we
keep the same time/date as we always have. Also we discussed the feasibility of
maintaining a nominal car count (100 plus). And try to improve on a better
access to view the entries. Roy M. thanked all the members for their great work
& to Jim K. for all his efforts that he puts into this every year.. We have
to plan something special for the 15th Annuel event next year. Open to any
constructive suggestions, A concern, however, to have Portable Toilets for the
2015 event was brought forward by Shawn.G and accepted plus a Hospitality table
w/chairs ( rest area) was also accepted. The idea of moving the show location
was Not accepted, as it would not be the best interest of the entries and have
a neg. Impact towards our club.
Jim.K to send out
Thank-you letters to all sponsors and supporters for this year’s event.
2. Club Raffle – we
sold close to 87% of our 1600 tickets, the other 13% of the tickets were either
lost by members or not sold ( remaining tickets). The amount that was earned
will be put in our account and used for our future projects.
The Raffle winners are
listed on the website along with the Show n Shine results. The winner of our
1957 Chevy Nose piece elected to take the value amount of $300.00 rather than
the nose piece.. There are a couple of members that want to purchase the nose
piece however.
3. Annual Club BBQ –
