Happy Holidays and Happy New Year 2016!

Yet another year has come to a close.  Hope everyone had a chance to enjoy some good times with their rides, and let the countdown to Spring begin!!

Everyone is cordially invited to attend the Chapter’s “After the Holidays” party at Dolce Novita in Moonachie on Sunday, January 17, 2016 at 3 P.M.  Hopefully you all received our e-mail and/or mailing with all the details.  As in the past, dinner will be a la carte, and the Chapter will cover beer, wine and soda.  We’d love to see you come out for some great food and company.

Another date to note is the Tri-County Cruisers annual bus trip to the Atlantic City Car Show and Auction on Saturday, February 27, 2016.  Tickets are $60.00 per person and includes the bus ride and admittance to the car show/auction.  Please contact Bill Wolf, Steve Kiellar or me no later than January 20, 2016 so we can get a ticket order in.

Mark your calendars, too, for Sunday, March 6, 2016 at 2 PM at Your Own Winery on Route 23 in Riverdale.

The Chapter Vintners will be at it again.  Come join the fun!

When you get a chance, take a few minutes to check out the Chapter’s “new and improved” website.  Many thanks to Jeannine Perry, whom we hired to bring the website more up to date, and many more thanks to Mike Stone for all his years of managing the website up until now.  Feel free to e-mail me or any of the other officers or directors if there is anything you’d like to add, particularly to the new Calendar feature.  We’d love to be able to list local car shows, cruise nights and the like.

Last, but probably most important, Chapter dues are due in January, and our next regular Chapter meetings are January 21 and February 18, 2016.

Once again, on behalf of our Chapter, I want to wish all our members very Happy Holidays and best wishes for a very Happy and Healthy New Year!!

Dianne Lennox

President

Happy Halloween!
Many thanks to all who attended our Chapter’s annual show, which was held on Sunday, October 11, 2015. We went with our rain date, and it looks like we made the right call as the 11th turned out to be a great day weather-wise. We had a great turn out even though we were competing with a few other regularly scheduled shows, as well as a couple of other rain dates. Many thanks to all of our members who helped run the show!!!
Not too soon to think about and schedule our “After the Holidays” party. We are looking at either January 18 or 25, 2016 as the date. We welcome suggestions as to a restaurant, preferably a BYO.
Also, we have already reserved March 6, 2016 for our next wine-making session at Your Own Winery in Riverdale, New Jersey. More details to follow.
Our next regular Chapter meetings are November 19 and December 17, 2015. Come on out to The Hearth in Clifton. “Car season” may be over, but no reason not to come by and “shoot the breeze.”
