OLD BUSINES

 

 

  1. Jim Spawn gave an update on Union Station.  Gary Blakely in charge of publications at the Ford plant said that his stay at the Hotel was excellent.  Problems that developed the Union Station laid off at lot of their staff including the two that were helping us just before our event.  And those two continued on helping us and performed as professionals as if nothing had been changed in their personal lives.  It created a sore spot when Model A people started pulling out their cars at 1PM, since the event was advertised as being an all day event.  The photograph turned out great, and there will be a follow up in the Restorer magazine.  Chris addressed the board on how we could better address the concern of people leaving early.  Chris thanked Larry for his dedication to the swap meet, and asked the board on what their thoughts were toward dropping the swap meet.  Larry stated that there was too much competition.   Chuck stated that we no longer need it.  Glen said there was too much competition with the larger swap meets.  Jim Spawn said it was time to end the swap meet.  Lynn said to keep the swap meet in a modified form, maybe combining it with another club event. Ed said to think out of the box.  Chris will bring it up to the membership at the next meeting.  Jim brought up that we should ask people for some ideas.
