Wow! Winter has arrived, most of the LBC’s are in hibernation mode at this time. While some of us are busy tweaking and
making improvements for next summer’s drive. Thank you to Elaine & John for hosting the November Meeting, it sure was
well attended by our members! At this time we will not hear from our Prez as she and John ventured down south to attend the
Delegates meeting in Louisville, I’m sure she will have a full report to share with us in January.
Our next Club Function will be The Austin Healey Club Annual Christmas Party.
Once again we will be at fabulous Rembrandt’s Bistro in Lockport MB, we will also be having the gift exchange
( $20.00 limit ).
If you are planning on attending please contact Graeme Lowden with your menu selection, the menu can be seen on the next
page of this Newsletter. lowden@highspeedcrow.ca
