New Business
Tom Ferguson asked the members to be thinking about coordinating Club Drive destinations for the 2022 driving season so that we can be more active when the weather improves.
John McNurney volunteered to hold a clinic on what to look for when evaluating an early model Mustang for purchase. After the meeting he and Art Apple proposed holding the clinic inside John’s home workshop immediately following the Saturday, February 12th FRMC Meeting which will be at Café Del Sol. John will use his classic 1965/1966 transition Shelby GT350 to point out things to look for. This should be a helpful event for all our members and I encourage everyone whose ever wanted an early ‘Stang to participate.
Before the meeting, long-time members Jack and Susan Redmond notified us that Susan has had some serious health issues which have kept them away from the Club this year. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers this holiday season.
The meeting was adjourned at 2:04pm.

MCA Report
President Standiford encouraged the members to try to attend some of the MCA National Shows next year, however, he acknowledged that since none of the shows are nearby (South Carolina, New York, California and Georgia are the locations) this will be harder to do than in 2021.
