AUGUST 11 - AUGUST'S MEETING WAS HELD AT QUAKER STEAK AND LUBE AND WE HAD ONE OF THE BEST TURNOUTS ALL YEAR. ALMOST EVERYONE BROUGHT OUT THEIR CAR AND DISPLAYED IT RIGHT OUT FRONT OF THE "LUBE". ALL THE MUSTANGS LOOKED SHARP OUT THERE. INSIDE WE ALL ATE DINNER, AND THEN HAD A QUICK MEETING.

THE GRAND FINALE OF THE NIGHT WAS ANOTHER ROUND OF OUR NEAR WORLD FAMOUS GAME OF "THE PRICE IS RIGHT". WE PUT FIVE CAR PRODUCTS ON A TABLE ALONG WITH FIVE INDEX CARDS, EACH WITH A DOLLAR AMOUNT WRITTEN ON THE CARD. EVERYONE TOOK TURNS ARRANGING THE CARD WITH A "PRICE" ON IT TO THE CAR PRODUCT THEY THOUGHT WOULD COST THAT MUCH. IT IS SURPRISINGLY DIFFICULT AND IT DEFINITELY STIRS THE CROWD UP. CLUB MEMBERS BRIAN JOHNSON WON THE FIRST ROUND AND TOM O'CONNOR WON THE SECOND ROUND. I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A FUN TIME AND THANKS TO ALL WHO SHOWED UP AND PARTICIPATED.

AUGUST 16 - SUNCOAST MUSTANG CLUB HAD OUR SECOND ANNUAL BOWLING NIGHT AT TWEDT'S LANES IN LARGO. ABOUT 20 PEOPLE SHOWED UP THIS YEAR AND I THINK EVERYONE HAD A GREAT TIME. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE NIGHT HAD TO INCLUDE AL CLARKE BOWLING FROM A WHEELCHAIR AND JENNIFER FARNHAM BEATING HER DAD. AFTER A COUPLE HOURS, WE ALL WENT OVER TO SONNY'S BBQ AND ATE DINNER. ONCE AGAIN THANKS TO ALL WHO CAME OUT AND PARTICIPATED. SPEAKING OF THANK YOU'S FOR PARTICIPATION, I WANT TO THANK OUR VICE PRESIDENT JOHN STOCKOWSKI FOR SETTING UP ALL THESE EVENTS. JOHN ALWAYS COMES THROUGH WHEN IT COMES TO ALL THE BEHIND THE SCENES WORK INVOLVED IN ARRANGING THESE LITTLE GET TOGETHER. THANKS JOHN!!!
