Box 65399ck, TX PRESIDENT'S NOTES Hey folks, it s officially spring and feeling like it, for most of the time. We and other clubs will be active this month with shows and various events on every Saturday of this month. Check the website and the great coming events list that our IT staff has available so you ll know what s happening. As for our club, we re adding a display event on April 4 th at Alamo Draft house theatre. They approached me with a request and, pending any last minute changes we will have a display for the new Fast and Furious movie that debuts on Easter weekend. As of the writing of this paragraph it's set for 4pm on the 4 th. As soon as we have specific details Mike will and update the website and facebook. Each driver will get a free pass that can be used anytime

3 for any movie at Alamo. It may be too crowded for us as a group to see the movie while we display, but we can determine that before or during the event. Also, we ll need to watch our cars since they will not be providing any security. The next April event is the annual birthday party at AIM bank from 10-2pm at the Slide location. We hope to have a large grill to cook on and AIM will provide most of the food and we ll cover whatever else, including the cake. This is a major sponsor and a fun event, so please make an effort to come. We will also have Celebrate Today doing their fund raiser again which helps patients through the Southwest Cancer center at UMC. I m getting a long in these notes, so Mike will have more details on Blue Ribbon and other events in the month. Hope you can make the events and our meeting Thursday April 2 nd ( no fooling)!
