2013
Summer is definitely here as temperatures rise and car shows start to dwindle.
Since it is getting too hot, we decided to
have a fan drive for the Caddo Council on
Aging to try to collect up some fans for the
elderly in Shreveport. We set up a time to
cruise out to the Channel 12 Studios on
Fairfield to deliver the fans on July 20th.
We started out at the St. Vincent Mall
parking lot with 12 cars and 18 fans to
deliver to the studios. After standing
around in the shade cleaning cars for
about 30 minutes waiting for last minute
Club members, we left St. Vincent Mall
and got to the Studio at 11:45 where we
met Jeff Ferrell and presented him with
the 18 fans and a check for $500.00 to
give to the Caddo Council on Aging.
Thanks to all who
came out in their
Mustangs and
cruised with us to
the TV station. We
got several pictures
of our club members
in the parking lot,
and in the lobby of
the TV station under
the KSLA sign, and
Jeff was nice enough
to plug our Club and
put the pictures on
the 6PM news that
Our 20th Annual Mustang Roundup and
Ford Show at Wray Ford is now just 7
weeks away. We still need lots of Door
Prizes and Goody Bag Stuffers. If you
have any of these or can get some, please
get with a board member so we can get
the items to Lane Butler’s house for storage until the big day. Also, we are collecting 125 Hot Wheels or Matchbox cars still
in packaging for our goody bags. Obviously we need the cars to be Ford Products.
We have 50 so far, and we still need 75
more, so if you see any, please pick some
up to donate to our show.
See you all out there!

As of today’s Club meeting, our show is exactly
7 WEEKS AWAY!!!!!!!
That said, and I know you hear it every month but, I
really, REALLY need door prizes and goody bags
stuffers. Our flyer advertises door prizes for the first
100 entrants. Historically, a door prize is given to
everyone who participates in our show. If you have
items to donate, please give them to any Board
member no later than the September Club meeting.
ANYTHING to advertise a business is great! So, if
you, or a friend, have a business you would like to
advertise, please donate some swag for the goody
bags!
A VERY significant part of our show is sponsors. For
the low, low price of just $100 a company can be a
Show Sponsor! They get their company logo on the
back of our shirt and everything!
This is a CLUB event and we need everyone in the

UPCOMING ACTIVITIES
Can you believe the summer is almost over and what fun it
has been. We have done lots as a club this summer including having a club picnic and a cruise to the track. With
summer coming to an end and the kids going back to
school we all know what that means. It's Roundup Time. It
is time to get things wrapped up and finalized for our
show. We are keeping our fingers crossed for fantastic
show weather without last year’s drizzle. Don't forget we
need door prizes and goody bag stuffers (anything of 100+
of a single item). You can bring your items to the August
or September meetings or to the goody bag stuffing which
will be held Sunday September 15th. It is usually held at
the VFW Post, ask Donna for details.

MCA NEWS
Just got back from the MCA quarterly meeting. This time we were at Streetside Custom Cars. This is a consignment sales operation. All I can say is "WHAT BEAUTIFUL CARS!" They sell anything on wheels. I fell in love with a
beautiful Aston Martin. Strange looking, but cute. George Valeri was not there because he was at the Tour de Elegance car show in Kentucky. Check out the MCA website for I'm sure they have the pictures posted. Lot of Mustangs.
The MCA has recently picked up some new corporate sponsors. Two of them are Mother's Car Care Products and
Lucky Brand Jeans. Soon you'll be able to purchase a MCA car care bag loaded with all kinds of cleaning supplies
from Mother's. It's a real nice heavy duty bag with the MCA logo on it. If you pull up the Lucky Brand jeans website
and register for their newsletter you receive a certificate for 25% off your purchase. Check the marketplace on the
MCA website for our sponsors. There's lots to find.
Ron Bramlett talked about the 50th Birthday Celebration. I urge all to check on the website. Things are being
added quite often now. Routes for the Great American Pony Drive are now being planned. These people aren't
the Mustangs Across America people. This is another group. They usually take the northern routes where the
Mustangs Across America people go the southern routes. Please check both for you might want to travel a different route. Most of us are going with the Mustangs Across America. You have a choice.
Don't forget our show is just around the corner. Make sure you read all articles. Lots of
things are needed. If in doubt on what to get, get something that you yourself would like
to get.
Till then, see you on the road
