It was reported that Mary Brown’s Birthday Party
was fun and the food was great. Terry and Dennis Trimble
were the only T/A Club members present.
Terry and Dennis also attended the Pontiacs at The Pines
II, Western Regionals on September 25th. They reported
that Ted Klein and Bob Oleson were there as well.
Twenty-seven cars attended the California Burger Show
and Shine. The 50/50 raffle was won by Terry Trimble
but it was probably a fix since Dennis drew the ticket.
The Peoples Choice Trophy was won by a White, ‘91
Chevy Camaro belonging to Kerry Aye. We were very pleased
and excited to see Dave, Paula and Paul Gershon. They
brought the 20th Anniversary Turbo Trans Am. Gary &
Trevor Vollstedt were there with a ‘73 Formula
that Gary is working on. The paint job is gorgeous and
Gary is doing it himself!
