Allen Fisher — Editor for Life May 7, 2014
Dear Members, Just a brief newsletter to remind members of our May 14th meeting. I’m sure everyone knows the drill by now, 6:30 PM Dinner, 7:30 PM Meeting. Same location, Barbara Fritchie.
Our 21st annual truck show is now history. 67 trucks were registered down from over 100 last year and a marked drop from previous years. Jack Boglitsch’s A20 Mack was the people’s choice award winner and Jack also won the 50/50 for $145 dollars which he donated $70 dollars back to the club. The Longest Distance Traveled was Cindy and Rich Fraer from Avella, PA which is next to the West Virginia border. Pat Herbst was presented with the Phil Ridgley Award for all that she has done for all these years.
We are again going to sponsor the Veterans Dinner at the Tri-State show. We are trying to have more Vets from the VA attend so we need additional support. Please contact me or Mark if you can help. In closing please look at the, for sale and calendar, you might see something that will interest you. Allen Fisher

There are now five chapters helping as Metro New Jersey has come onboard. There was a Tri-State meeting at the show, the club dinner will be on Thursday night at 5PM or a little after per Laura.

In closing, Mel Fair has retired from Central Maryland Truck. The Motor Home is rolling the miles as it travels the USA. Next stop, Springfield MO. at the National Show. Just a little secret, The RV has a CAT C7 Engine (NOT an International). Sorry Mel I had to let the CAT out of the bag. I have also made a change to the Hood Scoop, It is now published as a word document which should make it easy to copy. A big Thank You to Pat Herbst, Mel Fair, Wayne Shankle, Randy Pickett, Mike Uphold for all you do and have done to support the chapter each and every year at the show
Mark Vassallo, President
