Everyone had a great time in spite of the heat. They did arrive early enough to get spots by the big Sycamore tree shade next to the Court House. They stayed till the end, and some members got home very late. Photos courtesy of Doyle Cole. Thanks very much Doyle!

August Meeting

The August 9 meeting had 20 attending, in spite of the heat! Members discussed the previous night’s Jay Cruise for quite a while. Wayne told a few stories. One was about some woman who got shot (but not really) and trouble on his way home with someone’s bright lights behind him and something about bugs. Then he told another story about his harmonic balancer bolt falling out and denting his hood in three places, and more yadda, yadda.

Wayne has ordered caps from INK 82 in Locust and will be looking into buying some t-shirts, as our usual t-shirt vendor has been having many personal problems. Mike Walters said he was about finished up with preparations for his August 15 Pryor show. Don’t forget the Oct. 3 Annual Picnic at the Stott’s facility, more info next month; and Club Officer’s nominations will be held at the Sept. 13 meeting. Quite a few shows in Sept were discussed.

Curtis Lamb won the door prize.
