March - Sedona Car Club

Hey! Where did Winter go? It’s only the end of February and it feels
like late Spring. Of course, owning two convertible cars I guess I
shouldn’t complain, but it just seems like we should have a little more
Winter before Summer comes. The weather could change though. I
was snowed on in the St. Patrick’s Day parade once, and I’ve seen snow
in April.
Meanwhile, the weather is great for our club outings. Those of us who
made it to the “hamburger outing” had a great time. A lot of us showed
up, the weather was nice, and our many cars made a great display in
front of the restaurant. I met a man, Mart Schonberg, who has been a
member for some time, but has not participated in our events or
meetings. He just happened to be driving down Cornville Road and saw
all of our cars and came in to look. Coincidently, he lives near Gary and
Patti Lamb (it was nice to see them after an absence for a while), and I
introduced them to one another.
I regret that I don’t have any news about our car show yet. We would
like to have it at the airport, as we have for many years. The airport
has not made a decision whether or not it will be having an Airport
Day. The last information the airport gave me was that a new manager
was starting on March 1st, and then they would start discussing an
Airport Day. I hope we will be able to find out something soon. Our
alternate venue choices just don’t work as well as the airport.
I hope to see many of you at our March
General Meeting.

Please bring it out
and let others see it
at the Sedona Elks Lodge
The lodge will be hosting a fun cruise in on the third
Wednesday of each month from 5:00 to 7:00 in the Elks
Lodge parking lot at 110 Airport Road, Sedona. The
Lodge will be serving tacos and good quality grilled hot
dogs on the patio. Beverages will be available in the
lounge. This is being done to provide car owners an opportunity to show off their
fine rides just for the fun of
it and for the comradery.
Seems too many great
looking rides spend a lot of
time in garages when
showing them off and driving them is why you built
them. So bring it out!
The Elks will have a page
on Facebook. Look for Sedona Elks (or visit
www.sedonaelks.org)
cruise to check the dates
and photos from recent
cruise nights.
