Members-
We have had a great start to spring activities. There has been excellent participation in almost all of our planned activities. It’s obvious that everyone wants to get out and enjoy the weather and get away from our past isolation with COVID protocols.
Our spring season of autocross has been very successful so far. Lots of new faces and cars joined in the fun of running the courses in Madera. I would like to thank Larry Kirlin and all the volunteers, like Geneva, Bruno, Leon, Russ, Babette and so many others that are always there to help coordinate and coach fellow drivers! Looking forward to having continued growth as we start back up in September.
Tours continue to bring in new people and fun rides. Randy, along with Danny now for wine tours, are bringing us fun new adventures all the time. There is an upcoming tour this weekend May 21st heading up though back roads to Bass Lake. It will be a short tour of about two hours ending up at Ducey’s for lunch. Hope to see a good group for this tour. Need to sign up quickly, so we have a good head count.
Our next club dinner will be held at our house (Casa de Suarez) on June 11th. We are limiting the size of the crowd to 70 people, so as soon as you see the invite get signed up early, as this event always maxes out! This year we will be catering from Westwoods Barbecue. More details coming soon.
Our monthly Cars and Café always has a huge turnout. And this year we have had more variety in cars of all sorts and it’s a fun time to spend together on Saturday mornings. Now that we also have the south end Cars and Café in Hanford, we have seen this event grow too. This gives you two events per month to get together. The first Saturday of the month in North Fresno, and the last Sunday of the month in the South Valley. Please look at our website for more information.
There is another event that is not being held by our club, but a member of the club has teamed up with a local church to put on a car show. They are doing a community outreach with a craft fair, food trucks, with the main event being the car show. It will be held on Saturday June 4th, after our Cars and Café, at Southgate Church near Temperance and Kings Canyon. They do, however, need more cars to sign up, so check your calendar, as Prizes will be given for best of show and very nice plaques will go to each person showing a car.
