Presidential Post June 9, 2021
Members,
As Summer is about to begin and Texas has pretty much opened up, we can feel a real sense of normalcy that has been missing for way too long. You have probably noticed there is no shortage of car shows throughout the DFW area. With that the Board is working hard to find a place we can hold regular meetings. The church is still closed down to non-church related activities so we may have to be creative in finding a way to hold regular meetings. Bear with us as we work to re-establish our regular meetings.
Parker Square management has been gracious enough to offer the use of their indoor event center for the June member meeting which will be held Thursday June 17th at 7:30 pm with social time between 7 and 7:30. The club will be providing pizza and drinks so come hungry. We hope to see everyone there. I will have more details in the next couple days as far as getting to the event center.
ELECTIONS:
We will hold our mid-year elections during the June meeting. The following Positions will be on the Ballot. Vice President, Secretary and 4 Directors. If you are interested in running for any of the positions, please let nominating committee members, Jim Harrington and/or Jerry Flowers know. If you would like to know more about what the positions involve, please don't hesitate to contact any of the Board members.
ARLINGTON 4TH OF JULY PARADE (JULY 5th):
Since July 4th falls on a Sunday, this year's parade will be held on Monday July 5th. As in years past Bill Waible will the NTMC parade coordinator. He will have room for 6 cars plus the club trailer and tow vehicle. If you want to participate, please let him know. bill.waibel2@gmail.com
YELLOW ROSE CLASSIC CAR SHOW JULY 24TH-25TH :
Planning for the 31st annual Yellow Rose is in full swing. We are going to need plenty of help during the show to include Friday morning set up, running the admission desk, merchandise sales and judging just name a few. If you are able to help out please let the Yellow Rose Coordinator, Craig Grant know via email (cgrant@craiggrant.net). During the Cruise on the Square on Saturday we are going to try to have the poster and flyer kits ready for members to distribute to the area Ford dealerships as we have done in years past. If they are no available by then we will hand them out at the member meeting on June 17th.
TEXAS STATE FAIR:
The Texas State Fair will be open this year so our traditional trip to the Texas State Fair corral will happen. Stay tuned for details as we get closer to September.
Member's only access to the NTMC web page:
Compared to the membership as a whole only a small percentage of members take advantage of accessing the members only portion of the NTMC web site. To assure you have access to all the information available to you, be sure to request access to the members only area of the web site. This will require a g-mail address to add you to the group. If you don't use g-mail, that's ok. Just create a G-mail account so we can add you to group giving you access to the members only portion of the site. Send your request to Steve Gold at info@ntmc.org .
Missing Emails
If someone mentions to you, they stopped receiving emails or the pony corral from NTMC ask them to check their junk mail folder. They can also send an email to: Info@ntmc.org with their name email address and phone number so we can verify the information is correct on the email lists. They can contact me as well at prez@ntmc.org or call 817-793-2048.
