MARC Award for Continuing Excellence

Congratulations to Ruth Andre!

 

 

The Model A Restorers Club Proudly Presents a 2015 MARC Award for Continuing Excellence to the Little Rhody Region for their Quail Tales Newsletter.  Dawn Mennucci presented the award to Ruth at the  May 15, 2016 meeting.

 

Producing a quality newsletter takes a lot of effort and time.  The Quail Tales has been an example of continuing quality improvement under Ruth Andre's watch.  Great Job Ruth!

 

 

At the May Meeting, A Real Festive Spring Spread

Susan Mosca and Sandy Bowder were our phenomenal hostesses for the May meeting.  The food was terrific, and the presentation was amazing as can be seen below.  We loved the ducks - Charlie, Mildred and whasisname....!

The Baby Picture Show on May 15 2016

Moe and Jan came up with a winner of a program when they devised a way to have members guess at the identities of those who brought in baby pictures.  They set the thirteen pictures rendered on a fabric covered board.  Each member who wanted to participate obtained a sheet of paper with the numbers assigned to the pictures.  Then they proceeded to write down their "matches" to the list of members who brought pictures.  Carol Trudel came up with the most matches - Seven of them!!!  Some of us came up with none, OH  MY!  We did find out that we were a bunch of cuties when we were little tykes.  Jan and Moe had "very valuable prizes" for participants - thanks and kudos to the Rousseaus.

2016 Dust Off Tour April 23

The 2016 Dust Off Tour

It was a beautiful day on April 24th - clear, cool and breezy, just right for going on the first ride of the season!

Bob Osborne led the group up into Massachusetts to Purgatory Chasm over some beautiful Model A roads.   It was so nice out that the parking lots were crowded, and everyone from miles around were there...so we did not stay long.  At noon, the first day that the West End Creamery was open this year, we drove just a short distance and enjoyed the views, and some of us even got some ice cream!  Then it was off to Harmony, RI, another nice ride to Chester's Restaurant for baked stuffed chicken - yummy!     A very nice day!
