The Holiday Season is here!!

Hope everyone has their Menorah’s out and the Christmas Trees are all trimmed with sparkly, beautiful ornaments!! Now it’s time to wrap all those gifts – after all, tis the season for giving and receiving!!!

It’s been a GREAT driving season!!!! IT REALLY FLEW BY!!!! There were a total of ten (10) driving events/Rally’s and six (6) “other” events this season. The turnouts were IMPRESSIVE!!!I EVERYONE was ready to get out and enjoy driving our MG’s and gathering again!!! WE REALLY DID HAVE A BLAST AT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THESE EVENTS!!!!! A HUGE THANK YOU to all the members who stepped up to organized and host all the FABOULOUS events we were able to participate in!!!!

We had one (1) event last month. Dave Bralich hosted and organized the annual Fall Tune down on Sunday, November 7th. It happened to be gorgeous warm day out! In past years, the temperature doesn’t make it past 40 degrees AND WE FREEZE!!!!! There was a very nice turnout of 17 drivers consisting of 11 MG’s. We all had a wonderful time hanging out and observing work being done to some of the cars. The highlight of course was the BEER AND DAVE’S FAMOUS CHILI!!!! DELICIOUS!!! I had a large serving and enjoyed EVERY BITE!!! There was also scrumptious corn bread and homemade brownies!!! (As you can see – I am all about the food!) The guys had a GREAT time bonding and tinkering around with several of the cars!!!! Thank you Dave for another GREAT EVENT!!!

Unfortunately, the Cruise to the rock was canceled this year due to construction and road closures. This driving event was truly missed!!

So long 2021……HOPING 2022 brings us all GOOD HEALTH and HAPPINESS!!!!

I will be in touch sometime in February to get the driving events on the 2022 driving season calendar! I AM COUNTING ON HEARING FROM MEMBERS WILLING TO STEP UP AND ORGANIZE SOME NEW EVENTS!!!!!

WISHING YOU ALL A LOVELY Christmas/ Hanukkah and a Safe and Healthy NEW YEAR!!!!!!
