3 This Month s Meeting Minutes Greeting to all Thunderbird Lovers and Admirers, Our February 2015 meeting was held at China Delight Restaurant in Rohnert Park. It was hosted by Tim & Diane Roden. Attendees were Herman Schulze, Jutta Einstoss, Denice Bahnsen-Brown, Maryanne & Mike McLucas, Dee Dee & Dennis Byrne, Pat and Jim Arieta, Tim & Diane Roden, Louise Johnson & Wes Crandall, and Jan and Dave Kibler. President Pat thanked Tim & Diane for hosting the meeting. We all had delicious Chinese cuisine along with good fellowship and conversation about T-Birds, and lots of other subjects. Tim gave the treasurer s report on behalf of Arlis Minetti. All is well in the TOS bank account. The next meeting will be held at Mike & Maryanne s home in Petaluma. We will be having a BBQ and members will bring a dish to share. Dee Dee motioned to give a check from the club to the McLucas for $75 for the BBQ meat. It was seconded by Diane. Looks like we may have tri-tip. The raffle winners were Louise, Mike, Diane, Herman, Denise, Louise, Diane again (she gave it to Dee Dee). The raffle took in $20 for our club account. Respectfully Submitted, Dee Dee Byrne Secretary CTCI # Tech tip of the month from your editors Check your T-Birds tire pressure before you take you next drive. Many of our cars have not been driven for a while and tires do loose air pressure over time. Use a good quality air gauge to check the pressure when cold. Fill your tires to the manufacture specifications. If you have Coker's the recommended tire pressure is 35 lbs. Let's have good air pressure in our tires when you come to our house next month. Check your regular driver car tires too!! ANNIVERSARY CLUB MEMBERSHIP Please let your editors know when you joined Thunderbirds of Sonoma so we can have an anniversary list. Thank you!!
