September 2016 North Texas Region Cadillac & LaSalle Club

[Bill Levy CLC # 25695]

   It’s September in Texas â€" School has started, so try not to run over any of those book bag-lugging tykes on their way to gain an education so that they can get a good job when they graduate and pay my Social Security.   
                             
In this month’s Standard Of The World newsletter:

Front page.  Times moving on.  Let’s get your reservation into Jim Hanson for the Regional Meet at Southfork.  It’s going to be fun, a great car show, and good food, along with the opportunity to visit the home of Dallas TV and JR’s home. 

Page2. Our super September meeting at Triple F automotive, including a free meal.  Please RSVP Rubye Musser as soon as you get this newsletter so we have a good head count.

Page 3 is an announcement of Leak Auction’s Dallas fall Show November 18, 19, and 20th.  Sevenoaks has had ‘em here before and they get better every time.

Page 4 is the President’s Message and also the Activities Director’s calendar of events.

Pages 5-6. One of my favorite subjects regarding the Arsenal Of Democracy.  This is from the Cadillac point of view.  I remember seeing Patton’s car at Ft. Knox when it was with a collection of junk that would later be called the Patton Museum. 

Pages 7-8. I covered our road tour to Weatherford, Texas where Terry Mann took us through his fabulous museum, the Vantage Grill and Car Museum.  We had a great lunch, and latter ventured out for some delicious ice cream.   

Page 9. Karen Phillips tells about the neat meat we had at the Vantage Grill.  Also Election Information.  We have openings â€" so get your nominations in, as we vote in October at Southfork.

Page 10 is our special invitation to Honest John’s 11th Annual Fintastic Chili Cook Off and car show.  We had a great time last year and this year promises to really be better.  Lots of awards.  Last year’s winner is defending his championship.  Come hungry.

Pages 11-13 Mark Anderson sent me a great story about his beautiful ’67 Cadillac convertible.  He sent some photos, and I had some also, snapping this car every time he brought it out.  It’s a winner.

Page 12 is the registration flyer for the NTXCLC Regional meet, held at J.R.’s house at the Southfork Ranch in Parker Texas.  It is where we will vote on the elections of officers and directors (see page 13).  We have invited car clubs all over the country to join us, so it should be a super meet. Please join us and please register by September 15th.
