Minutes continued on page 2

2 Minutes continued from page 1 Copies of the flyers to advertise the show have been made in color, as well as black and white. We ask that the color flyers be used to hang up in businesses around the area. Black and white copies can be used to pass out to individuals at truck shows, etc. Please take some and hang them around town and pass them out. We ask that members sign up to volunteer. We have time slots to make it easier. You can volunteer on one day, or both days. R. Zigmont asked if there was any news from the other two clubs. T. Spencer reported that he does not have much to report, but there are upcoming meetings and he will make contact with them. T. Spencer also wanted to remind members to sign up to volunteer at the show. R. Zigmont also added that you may come up to him, Tom, or Jeanie the day of the show to find out what needs to be done or how you can help. This year s show should run much smoother. There will be no silly extras. The food vendor worked out well. T. Spencer is looking to get an ice cream vendor. Terry Davis mentioned he know someone with an ice cream truck and relay the information to him. Programs are being put together for the show. T. Spencer says the intent is to sell enough ads for the program to cover the costs of the printing and the fairgrounds. He has gotten a quote of $400/ 250 programs in black and white. There will be 20 pages in the program and will be 8 ½ x 11 folded in half. We should have approximately 16 pages to sell advertising. At $100/page, that would cover all costs and leave us with a nice profit. The size of the ads can range from President Twin Tiers Chapter Officers Richard Zigmont 9 Ronan Street, Binghamton, NY (607) rzigmont@stny.rr.com Vice President Ed Greene 20 Skyline Drive, Barton, NY (607) Secretary Treasurer Sunshine Jeanie Selby 9 Ronan Street, Binghamton, NY (607) jselby001@stny.rr.com Tom Spencer 876 Teeter Road, Owego, NY (607) Mary Reiling 326 NYS Rt. 7, Afton, NY (607) business card size to a full page. We can accept hard or digital copies of advertisements, whatever is easiest for the individual. We have forms for advertising. The program will also have information about our clubs. Tom Evans has written the information about our club and will pass it on to Jeanie. We may also like to have a page on International. T. Spencer wanted all to know that he has the insurance forms from the other two clubs. Everyone is covered. Calendars were brought up. We still have many calendars left to sell. The price will be dropped to $5. It was discussed whether or not we should print calendars this year. Some members like to have them. A motion was made by Darrel Whitman to print 50 calendars this year. Second by Bob Gordon. Passed. Jeanie will put it together and will make sure year and make of truck are included as well as the owner s name. Bob Gordon gave some more information about the JC Partners Group cruise-ins.

Hopefully, summer means the weather will be nice so we can all enjoy the truck shows in and around our area. Hanging out with truck buddies and checking out trucks we do not normally get to see is a great way to spend a day. If you plan to go to other shows, please make sure to take flyers to pass out and display to advertise our own Twin Tiers show in August! I am planning on pre-registering for our show and I ask that all members do the same. It can get a little backed up at the registration table on the day of the show, so it is best that we take care of our own stuff ahead of time. We have attached a registration form for your convenience. We also have a program ad form for you to use to sell advertisements. Call me or Tom Spencer with any questions. Thank you to all the members who have signed up to volunteer so far. Our show depends on the volunteers and we appreciate all your hard work! Motion to adjourn made by D.
