From the Prez... 
Now that I am entering my third year as President of Mustangs Northwest, one would think that I have all the processes and procedures "Down Pat". Well I am here to tell you that even I make mistakes sometimes. Now, some mistakes can be very subtle, and in fact no one but you may know that a mistake even occurred. However, being the up-front and honest person that I am, please read on to hear my confession:
The annual Mustangs Northwest year-end banquet was held at Griots Garage in Fife this year and was certainly a huge success due to the hard work of Vice President Kevin Crader and his team of volunteers. They all made for a fun-filled evening honoring all of the officers, board members and committee chairs from 2008. We even had a Murder Mystery during dinner, as well as both silent and live auctions. Lance Lambert showed us all his auctioneer skills once again during the live auction, with all proceeds being donated to the Make-a-wish foundation, Susan G. Komen breast cancer research, and the Vic Edelbrock Revved up for Kids Charities. The "MPG" (Membership Presidents Gift) was won by Larry Russell and by his reaction, he was totally and pleasantly surprised.
Now for my mistake - The whole purpose of the annual banquet is to honor all of the volunteers, committee heads, officers and board members from the previous year, as well as introduce the newly elected officers and board members for the current year. Well, I was so caught up in the festivities at the end of the evening that I totally forgot to introduce the 2009 Officers and Board members. These are the dedicated people who step up and volunteer their time, energy and passion to guide this great club into the coming year. So without further adieu please let me introduce "TEAM Mustangs NW" for 2009:
Pat Trine - President
Mike Zimmer - Vice President
Debbie Moore - Treasurer
Connie Trine - Secretary
Lois Robinson - Membership
Board Members: Nancy Atkinson, Kevin Crader, Jeanie McCain, Bob Moore, Dave Penwell, Larry Russell, Scott Robinson and Bill Smallwood III.
Let's kick off this new year right by coming together at the February 13th General Meeting to learn about upcoming events, socialize and just have some fun. Hope to see you there!
