Happy New Year everyone!

At least it is according to the VMCC calendar.  Last night, we had our AGM.  It was a stormy night, and I would like to thank all that took the time to attend.  Princess Mary restaurant lived up to Lloyd and Dana’s recommendations and that I think everyone enjoyed themselves.  I would like to thank Jean Margison for taking the minutes of the AGM.  It was also decided that we will be looking into Golf shirts as this years Club memorabilia for renewing membership.  We did survive a close call with a bad joke; and NO, I wasn’t the one that told it; that credit goes to Duane.  I would like to thank the members that have stepped up and renewed their Executive positions and especially those that have done so for the first time.  I am looking forward to this coming year and what it has in store for us.  I would like to thank Richard Ford owner of the Elk Lake Auto Center (NAPA AutoPro) 5498 Patricia Bay Hwy (Hwy 17) for donating the door prize.

We still do not have a host location for the Christmas Party.  Is anyone willing to host it? We have not selected a date as of this time, but it would be a Sunday in the first two weeks of December (either 7 or 14 December) — Your choice.

Also, I will not be here for the 15 November meeting, Is anyone willing to host it?  I would hope that most of the Executive will be there and introduce themselves at that time.  Now,  I would like to introduce you to your new Executive:

President:  Terry Hogan

Membership: Mike Smith

Events Coordinator: Doug Hall (taking up responsibilities from Dwayne Kalynchuk)

Treasurer: Mike Smith

Sponsorship: Dwayne Kalynchuk

Web Minister: Dylan Parker

 Secretary: N/A

Thanks to all of you for your support and I am looking forward to a great year ahead full of adventure and fun!

Terry (aka Da Prez!)
