Congrats to Trophy & Plaque Car Show Winners in May
MEMBERS:
Please tag Brett Houchin or Donnette on fb or e-mail me pics of anyone who has won a plaque or trophy going forward starting in July this
year. If I missed anyone in the FCCC June Newsletter, my apologies. I searched several sites to find most of these pics and I am hoping I
didn’t miss anyone. Since I can’t make all the car shows to take pictures of plaque or trophy winners, I am asking you to send them to me.
