The Treasurer reported the financial activity of the club for March.  A motion and second were made to accept the Treasurer's Report.  A voice vote approved the motion.

The Governor reported that G-Burg Vettes needs help with  the judging at the NCCC Convention in August.  If you  can help, please contact the Governor.  The Governor passed out a sign-up sheet for corner workers at the Convention.  Contact the Governor if you can help.  You can also order day passes for the Convention.  Contact the Governor on this; he has the request forms.  These passes are not for competition events, just to enter the grounds.  The Governor also reminded everyone that all upcoming NCCC Sanctioned events for the Eastern Region are on our web site (Go to the Calendar.)  You can check there for information on the the events you wish to do.  If you do not have access to the web, contact the Governor for the flyers and other info.

There was one First Reading (one couple) but two Second Readings (one single/one couple) for new members.  Upon motions and seconds from the floor, a voice vote accepted these new members into the club.  WELCOME ABOARD.

When we have the 50/50 drawing, we usually draw two tickets.  We are now going to draw a third ticket.  Each month we will put $10.00 into the pot.  When we draw the number, if you are wearing your NAME TAG, you will win the money.  If that person is not wearing their name tag, the money goes into the pot for the next month, then you could win $20.00.  It will be a progressive pot.  So if you do not have a name tag, contact any officer who will notify you of whom to contact to obtain a name tag.

The trip to Massanutten is May 3rd and 4th.  We are meeting at Exit 5 off I81 south (Waynesboro/Greencastle) right off exit to light.  Left at light, meeting in parking lot of the Buckhorn Restaurant.

Allenberry Play and Dinner May 30th.  Money due now. 

Judged & Fun Show at Rufe Chevrolet March 8th.  We had a good show despite the cold weather.  We were very pleased with the turnout from our own club members.  The Chairperson thanked everyone for their help and gave special thanks to two members for all their help to make the show the success that it was.

A sign-up sheet was passed around by the Treasurer asking for workers at the Pocono Driving School.  We are short workers.  If you can help, please contact the Treasurer.

On June 14th there is going to be an air show at the Capital City Airport.  They would like to have Corvettes there.  Gates open at 8:00, stay until 3 or 3:30.  CPCC is also having a concours that day.

Spina Bifida Fly-In is May 3rd at the Capital City Airport.  Be at the airport by 10:00.

A sign-up sheet was passed around for the Spring Cruise which is planned for May 10th.  If interested, see the newsletter for the chairperson or ask any officer.  Please reserve soon; a count is needed for the restaurant.

June 1st is the double sanctioned autoX at Pharo's Truck Stop.  From 8-11 AM, club members can try their hand at auto crossing.  This will be a non-competitive instructional time period to permit you to learn and/or fine tune your autoX skills.  In the afternoon all Corvette's will be running in the two competition events.  A motion and second were made for the club to invest in six regulation helmets with the amount not to exceed $700.00.  The motion passed on a voice vote.

Don't forget our annual picnic and rallye on June 21st at the home of the newsletter editor(s).  Chairpersons have been appointed to organize the rallye.

The President thanked everyone who helped him with the Mini Grand Prix's throughout the years he was co-ordinator.  The Mini GP's have been canceled because of lack of funding for them.

A motion and second were made to have the Holiday Party again at the Raddison and to put a $100.00 deposit to hold our room. 

The October Club meeting is changed to Thursday, October 9th to avoid a conflict with Ocean City weekend which is October 3rd, 4th and 5th.  Most people leave the Wednesday or Thursday before to make it a long weekend.

Club watches are still for sale.  Only men's watches are in stock.  Unfortunately, the batteries in these watches are dead.  The price is now $6.00 because of the dead batteries.  More watches can be ordered if enough members are interested in sending in an order.

The Vice President announced that he needs six cars for the Memorial Day Parade in Carlisle.  The six are for Elk members.  Contact the Vice President if you want to participate.

Email the President if you have interest in going to the 50th Anniversary Celebration in Nashville.  If there are enough people going, we could caravan together.

The Governor has a flyer from the Skyline Drive Corvette Club about a twilight show June 12th.  If interested, contact the Governor.

The Comfort Inn will be our back-up for the Pocono Driving School.  $66.00 per room for single, $76.00 per room for double.  570-443-8461.

A motion and second was made to adjourn.  A voice vote approved the motion. 

Respectfully submitted,

CVCC Secretary

The Board meeting was held at the home of the Treasurer on April 15th and opened by the President.  All officers and board members were present.

We have been discussing at the monthly meetings about reducing the cost of the Newsletter.  We need your co-operation to do this.  Ken has sent e-mails to everyone that we have e-mail for, so please let him know if you will be willing to read the newsletter on our web site instead of having it mailed to you.  Of course, those people who do not have e-mail, it will still be mailed to you.  He has had a response from about 14 people.  Please respond to Ken ASAP.

The Board discussed club points for workers and participants at the NCCC Convention in Hagerstown.  The points will be 200 per day.

Respectfully submitted,

CVCC Club Secretary
