Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! Hope your holidays were great, and you received all those coveted new corvette accessories. We want to thank Daryl and Cindy Burbach for hosting the annual December Drive and Eat/Christmas party. On behalf of all the club membership, we also want to thank all those that showed up early to set up the event. We also want to thank Betty Henderson for providing the wonderful Christmas decorations, everyone that brought the tasty food, Gary and Cindy Dyke for cooking the meat, and those helping in the clean up effort. The club collected $284 to be donated to The Lord s Diner. The Lords Diner does a tremendous job providing nutritious hot meals to anyone in our community who walks thru their doors. We hope this donation will help continue the good work that their organization provides. This was a great start to the holiday season, and a nice way to end the year. I want to thank the E-Board for having confidence in me, and electing me to the position of club president. Dale Brotton did a fine job and his shoes will be hard to fill. I also want to welcome our new VP, Barry Hoofer; and Art Warren the new treasure to the board. Officer at Large Mike McKee N.C.C.C. Governor...
