PRESIDENT’S LETTER

I would like to encourage our membership and especially our new members to come out and join us this year at the Mount Sunapee show October 5th & 6th. For those of you that have Friday October 4th off or can take that day off from work to come to help set up for the show would really be appreciated. There will be a buffet type lunch set up for the people that help participate. There will be plenty do Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. There will be a barbecue on Saturday night for members and dealers after the show who want to stay. A small fee will be charged for the meal. This is a good way for the club members to socialize and have fun at the same time. This our club and our show and with everyone's help we can make it the best one ever.

PRESIDENT,

Bill Brown
