Updates From the President:
I have some sad news to share, Jim Nielsen’s wife Mona passed away in hospice this past Sunday, June 28. I will share details regarding services when I receive them. The Board met on the 26th and discussed the planned August Events. While the live general meeting (Clements Center still closed so we will have a Zoom meeting), luncheon events and pinochle (organizers decision) continue to be cancelled, we will be going ahead with the Hubley races on August 16. The Women Drives an A event will be replaced with a women’s fashion seminar (and possible men’s seminar) on August 29. We are still waiting to hear if Celestial Seasonings will be open for our planned August 22 event. The annual picnic is now being planned for September 12. Organizers of the Park Hill 4th of July Parade, the Strasburg Hometown Days Parade and the Wheat Ridge Carnation Festival Parade have cancelled their events. We are looking forward to our upcoming July events, Gymkhana (car games) on July 11, Zoom videoconference general meeting on July 17 and a MAFCC Mini Golf Tournament on July 25. Based on the turnout at the 2021 Tulip Festival Tour planning event on June 20, we are expecting good participation and a lot of fun at these events. We continue to hear of small group gatherings, drives and repair sessions and hope you continue to look for safe opportunities to get together informally. And keep calling each other (maybe we will all get into this habit and even continue it when this is all over!). Jim Huff PS on July 8: We have been hearing several concerns today from club members regarding the extreme heat potential for the Car Games Event on Saturday, July 11. Since this promises to be a really fun time and we would like to have as many people as possible to enjoy it, we have decided to postpone it until the weather will be cooler. And the cars will run better too! June 20 was a busy day! After the Railroad Museum and two senior community drive-bys, the Sybesmas hosted a Tulip Tour 2021 planning meeting. Photos by Mike Smith

The Colorado Railroad Museum invited us over to celebrate Father's Day weekend. On Day One, Andy Scheer spotted seven Model A's, each one a different body style. Take a guess: who's in the locomotive driver's seat? (It's our very own Al Blount!) Przywitowskis and Andy took these great shots.

When we share our time, memories and old cars with others, everyone wins.
Visits to senior residences are a favorite club activity.
