EDITOR’S CORNER

Things are happening! I can almost feel the ‘Driving Season’ in the air. That white stuff is finally gone (I hope) for now and my car is thawing out also. The Swap Meet is in good shape to be a happening this year with hopefully a good turnout. Jim Evans is busy assigning vendors to spots in the DuPage County Fairgrounds building and postcards have been sent out to potential buyers. Fingers crossed…

Familiar driving events are being added to the calendar and the hope is for a few new venues and rallies to happen this year. I’d like to send out a plea to all of you to consider hosting an existing event or fabricate your own. There are many members in the club that could help with the details of setting something up – just need your ideas, we can help fill in the blanks! Please contact Jamie Schafer to get the ball rolling.

See you on the road.
