As November rolls in, we have to take time
to recognize our veterans. I'd like to
thank all of our veterans for their sacri-
fice of time, family and their own lives. I
have had a father, brother and now a son in
the military. The Rebels have shown their
appreciation by sending troop packages to
those in the military and will continue to
do so. If you know someone that would like
to receive troop packages, let Sandy Fran-
cisco know. Please take time to think about
those who served and are now serving. They
say to all of us that freedom isn't free. I had a great time at the Halloween Party at
the Masters'. Thanks again, Bill and Linda,
for hosting the party and Sandy Ready and
other members for organizing. November is nomination month for Rebels of-
ficers. Please note the changes for this
year's elections. Terms for President,
Treasurer, and one Director at Large will be
for a one year term and Vice President, Sec-
retary, Coordinator and the other Director
at Large will be for 2 years. Elections
will be held at the December meeting. It's
not too late to volunteer for an office.
Members need to step up and take their turn
at helping to run the club. New blood is
always welcome. The change in terms for of-
fice will always insure we have experience
on the board. If you are interested, con-
tact someone on the nominating committee,
Jim Holstein, Craig Foster and Sandy Fran-
cisco. It's time for most of us to store the car(s)
away for the winter. I will probably hold
out until after Thanksgiving. It's time to
work on winter projects for those with
heated garages or for the brave souls that
don't. It's always fun to see what happens
over the winter. I'd like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiv-
ing. Hope to see you on the road soon.

It was just an old hand me down ford
With 3 speed on the column and a dent in the
door
A young boy two hands on
the wheel
I can't replace the way it
made me feel and
I would press that clutch
And I would keep it right
He would say a little
slower son
Your doing just fine
Just a dirt road with trash on each side
But I was Mario Andretti
When Daddy let me drive
Drive—Alan Jackson
Wow November has just snuck upon us!!! The
weather is changing fast but there is still a few
days left of driving the old toys!! Some have already
put them to rest for the winter. I always seem to
think that one more day isn’t going to hurt. This
year I am going to put it away sooner than last, so I
am not playing catch up the night before World of
Wheels. This just shows how slow this month is
when I am already bringing up the Omaha show.
I would like to thank all that showed up for the
Troop Packaging at The Garage, and once again I
had to miss it for work. These packages are very
appreciative. Thanks Again!!
There are a few events that need to be brought up
before I forget and we all know how I have been
forgetting things lately.
