Bay Area Meet and Greet?

lpl

I use to be an officer in that group many moons ago and remember introducing a few detailed written proposals re: improving and streamlining the annual show/misc events and increasing communication internally & externally. I handed copies out to each officer at the officer’s meeting. As I began going through them, I could see smoke coming out of several people’s ears. Very shortly after, I heard some group speak basically saying that my proposals were too complicated and that they liked doing things the way they’ve always been done. The club has always had a difficult time evolving. The times they are a-changin’ but not so sure if MA is changin’ with it. Hopefully, they can and are.

In Northern/Central CA, there use to be four main Mopar clubs that held annual shows: Mopars Alley, Capital City Mopars, Wine Country Mopars & San Joaquin Mopars. It would be interesting to look at the membership, annual shows and overall health of the clubs today vs 20+ years ago.

We still have our show (San Joaquin Valley), but it has moved out of Madera (they basically told us they didn't want us) to Clovis. The show is next Saturday (Sept. 24). We have never really had a big show, but it is smaller than 20 years ago. The club has gone through several membership changes with a few of us still around since 1994. Just got a new member in his 50s who recently bought a '69 hemi Super Bee survivor. Very interesting car, option wise (buckets/console and power windows).
