NOVEMBER 12, 2023 MEETING

 

Every November our meeting has consisted of our usual business meeting followed by a Brown Bag Auction.  We also bring food donations for a local food pantry to assist in helping folks in need at this time of year.  The meeting went as usual, plans discussed for the Christmas Party in December,  we got to the scrumptious refreshments – and then- the AUCTION started.  Sparky acted as our favorite auctioneer again this year.  As always, it was an exciting and fun time as we tried to out-bid each other for unknown items – and then got to see the surprises in =side those brown bags.  Proceeds from the auction augment the treasury.

NOVEMBER 11, 2023 - VETERAN’S DAY

 

It has become a tradition of sorts for club members to tour the Rhode Island Veteran’s cemetery on Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day.  We try to come out with flags waving and our Veterans on our minds.  It was a beautiful breezy, sunny day and many folks were visiting final resting places.

NOVEMBER 5, 2023 - THE ANNUAL CHICKEN RUN

 

We had a nice turn out for the annual Chicken Run at Wrights Farm this year.  We joined several other antique car clubs at the restaurant at about 11:30.  Unlike many years in the past – the weather was very co-operative. Sunny, breezy and mild!  The meal, as always was served family style, all you can eat – and we did!  Before and after the meal we got to tour the parking lot and kibbitz with old friends from other clubs and enjoy the car show!
