OLD FORT VW CLUB
Meeting Minutes of June 6, 2022
Seventeen members of the Old Fort VW Club met at the Purdue Parking Garage 3 for our
monthly meeting, with the threat of a pending rain storm.
Welcome, new member, Carla Barrett! You are joining a great team of VW enthusiasts!
Carla has a 1970 orange Beetle that is soon to be restored.
Kyle said that Vorderman VW has donated $500 towards our trophy expense. They are
also replacing their signage, and will have an old sign that we can use as a raffle item at
the Show.
Sweetwater cannot donate this year. They said they have already reached their
allotment for contributions for the year.
Trophies will include the Top Ten in each category, Best in Show, and Longest Distance.
The trophy design will be like our T-shirt design, cut in metal.
Kyle has all the registration cards and necessary paper work printed.
KYLE WILL CALL THE WAYNE H.S. COLOR GUARD IN MID-JUNE.
THANK YOU TO LARRY AND ANN THIEL FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK GETTING OUR T-
SHIRTS ORDERED AND READY FOR THE CLUB AND FOR THE SHOW!!! THEY LOOK
GREAT!! THANKS AGAINT TO CORINA FOR THE NICE DESIGN!
Larry Thiel suggested that we sell the shirts for $12.00, instead of $15.00, just to make
sure that they do sell. He is concerned that attendance may be down, due to the price
of gas. MM&P
Kyle said the dash plaques can be in brushed silver, with royal blue print, to match our
shirts, if we choose. Club voted for the matching theme. They come to .98 each, plus
$14.95 shipping, and we get a $25 gift card from Rock Auto. We are ordering 125 dash
plaques.
Orlyn showed a sample of a new pen that is available for .69 each, plus shipping and tax.
Kyle said to go ahead and order the pens; we are getting low on the old ones.
We do need to be collecting Door prize items. Please report at the next meeting if you
have any items to contribute.
Several Club members are recuperating; please keep them in your prayers: Chuck and
Becky Ellis, Dave Strassburg having eye problems, and Gary Stetler recuperating from
pneumonia. We had a good report that Churck Ellis is making progress. We are all
pulling for you, Chuck!
OUR NEXT MEETING WILL BE JULY 11TH, AT SHOAF PARK. BRING YOUR CHAIR, IF
POSSIBLE.
