Monthly Meeting Notes
September 2009

 

The September 2009 meeting of the St. John's Austin Healey Club was held on Sept. 7, 2009 in conjunction with a Shop Meet at Tony Martini's home. The Shop Meet was held from 9 AM to 3 PM and then a cookout and meeting was held. Our surprise attendees were Andy and Yvette Norton - long time members of the Club. It was so great to see you both. Thanks Tony for hosting us.

In the absence of our treasurer, we are assuming that our bank balance is still $$$$$$.

Old Business:

Report on our Moonlight Run and Ice Cream Social held on August 29, 2009. This event was a huge success as we had twenty-four people and seven Healeys attend. We had dinner at Billy's Boathouse on the Intercoastal Waterway and then went down to Ponte Vedra Beach to have ice cream at Yogaberry's. Thanks John for organizing.

New Business:

Shop Meet today was a huge success. Good turnout and lots of work done.

Tony Martini and Bill Young advised that they will be driving their Healeys up to Tennessee Sept. 17-20 for the SE Classic. (Note: they are home safe and sound and had a great time)

Sept. 26th is our 35th Annual Club Shrimp Boil to be held at the Leenhouts' Hangar House. (Note: this event too, was a big success. Thanks John and Nancy)

We were reminded of the All British Car Show at Buffalo Cafe in Orange Park FL on Oct. 17th. To find out details of this event, go to www.mgclassics.org
