To all members and friends of the ACCP:
We are now well into the Harvest Season with farmers taking off their crops and gardeners reaping their bounty, storing and canning in preparation for the months ahead. It’s perhaps a bit early, but our thoughts are already on storing our autos, boats and other toys for the winter. I know of some of us who have acquired an extra toy here or there, which means the garage or barn needs to be rearranged or expanded.
This past month has been fun but a bit of a challenge, at times, to determine which event or tour to engage in. With Pembroke’s Hockeytown Centennial Parade, The Renfrew Car Show and the Renfrew County Plowing Match all taking place on the same day, September 14th, it certainly reminds us we are all busy in a most busy season. I thank all the members who have volunteered their time so freely in bringing their vehicles and families to help make each event a success. Over the club’s fifty years, one thing is clear; tours and other such events only come together well with a lot of ‘behind the scenes’ preparation.
We welcome Myrna and Lorne back from the East. They’re a big part of our ACCP family and their absence in summer is certainly noticed. We offer condolences on the passing of Myrna’s sister. On a happier note, the question is: “when is Maiden Lane the Lobster Fest” ?
By this meeting, we’ll be just getting over the fine fare at the Mount St. Patrick’s Parish Supper and there’s already good vibes about Oktoberfest in Ladysmith. Dave has suggested an interesting route and meal venue for a fall colour tour if the weather holds out, and then there’s the Christmas Shine on Saturday, December 7th. For this, there will be tickets printed and available by the November meeting. Plan ahead to invite family and friends to join us for a fun-filled evening. Guaranteed, it will be an entertaining Christmas party. We’re confident that Santa has had ample time to work on his beard for this year.
Our October 2 meeting venue has been changed to the Kingburger Restaurant, 1294 Pembroke St. W. in the dining room there. Myles and staff are looking forward to us joining them at 5:30 o’clock for a socializing, dinner at 6:00 and for any who wish to attend only the meeting, it will start at the usual time of 7:00. I look forward to seeing you all then. Delores
