Hello Members I'm extremely excited to be the incoming President of this terrific club in 2019. I'm asking for everyone's support and participation in our club this year. We just finished our annual club business meeting and we have a very busy and exciting year ahead (see the events calendar in this newsletter and on the web site). First of all is our hosting, along with Delmarva Chapter, the 2019 POCI Annual Convention in Gettysburg, Pa the week of July 16th through the 21st. We have been planning this event for almost 3 years and our convention that we want to be considered the best ever. We continue to need help from our current club members, other clubs in the area and fellow car enthusiaist. If you enjoy the POCI conventions in the past please try to find some time to assist us. You can contact me, Dick Stover or show chairman Jim Martin. The second half of my request is support our 2019 club functions. In this newsletter is the schedule please come out to our car shows and our club events. A lot of time is put into planning and we would appreciate strong attended events. So finally my message for this newsletter is please support your club on 2019. See you at car event, please introduce yourself as I surely will be doing the same. Thanks Tom Wright tommyjw22@yahoo.com 2 of 8
