We always need volunteer judges at this show so please consider stepping forward to help out. We did cancel our planned trip to Al Engles and the Rosie Riveter site in Richmond planned for March 5th because of the weather. But don’t despair, we have rescheduled Rosie for June 11th. See page 5 for details and make sure you call Denise by June 1st if you plan to come. Anybody going to the Kingsport, TN Nationals in July? I know Jon Manji is for sure and he wants to know if you have any questions or ideas you would like him to bring to the meet meet- ing. See next page for the “Ask Your Zone Director” article. Another change we made was to drop the Fairfield RR trip in July and concentrate on going to the Cadillac sponsored show July 31st at Portal Park in Cupertino. We can all park together on the lawn, there is shade and a great BBQ available. Please contact me if you are going. We, as a club have planned to go to the Roamin’ Angels, Crusin’ in the Pines Car Show in Ne- vada City Sept 9-11. We plan to group together as a club. There now is a form in this Oldsletter and I do have some full size official forms if you are interested. I’m going to the All GM show (less Chevy) in Clovis April 29-30 for the first time. See page 17. This was recommended by our member Dennis Baker. Join me if you can! Mike White and I are going to the National Antique Oldsmoble Club Nationals in Colorado Springs, CO in June 22-25. Many So-Cal members plan to go as well. Best Regards, President, Larry Ewing Editor’s Note As you see on our cover and inside this issue we had our Golden Gate Bridge photo shoot. April 3rd turned out to be a picture perfect day for a clear view of the bridge. We obtained a spot near the water without background clutter. For many years now we have been placing a full page ad in the OCA National Meet Magazine and this great idea of a Golden Gate back- ground was from our Zone Director Jon Manji as he thought this would make a great statment from our club to OCA. My only wish is we could have had more members and their cars but we did call everyone. It is 50 years since the introduction of the Toronado and we have featured Gary Hinman’s stun- ning example. We plan to send this and more on to Ralph Braun at JWO. Please submit you Oldsmobile stories and photos for inclusion in the Oldsletter and maybe we can send on to JWO if you desire. Best Regards, Editor Larry Ewing Membership Report Membership as of April 7, 2016 is 118 members with 54 associate members. NCOC 2016 membership dues are due by January 1, Each Year; $25 for member only or $25 + $5 for member and spouse; send to Dan Haggerty membership chairman. Applications for NCOC and OCA are on our club website at ( www.norcalolds.com ). Membership Chairman, Dan Haggerty Cover: Golden Gate with cars and Gary Hinman’s 50th year Toronado, photos by Larry Ewing 3 Treasurer Report Our club bank account is solvent. Nor Cal Olds Club Treasurer, Dan Haggerty Ask Your Zone Director, By Jon Manji, PSW Zone Director It won’t be too long before our 2016 OCA National Meet will be taking place. An important part of the National Meet is a full-day meeting of your Board of Directors, where many issues concerning the club are discussed and courses of action are agreed upon. Typically, an issue of concern is summarized and a proposed course of action is presented to the Board as a motion for consideration. The motion is then discussed among the Board members, during which time additional background information may be requested and/or the proposed course of action may be modified. Once the discussion period is over, a Board member must second the motion (a second is not needed in the case of motions proposed by a Board Commit- tee) and the Board members then vote on the proposed motion. Do you have any club-related issues that you would like to see addressed by the OCA Board? While the Board considers issues and handles business year-round via e-mail, the annual meet- ing provides an opportunity for face-to-face presentation and discussion. The deadline for motions to be considered at this year’s Board meeting is 30 days before the meeting, which is June 20th. Since any issue will need to be written up in the correct form for a motion, figure our deadline locally should be at least one week before the 20th, earlier if possible. Your Zone Directors are your representatives to the Board. We can help take your issue of con- cern and proposed solution and put it in the form of a motion for Board consideration. Please contact me or Dan to get started, we’ll be happy to help. LATE NOTICE: Side trip to the Vandenberg Airforce Base on Fri, May 13th Dear Jeff Stanish and Jon Manji, I am planning to attend the OCA Zone meet in Pismo Beach, and am organizing a side trip to the Vandenberg Air Force Base on Friday, May 13th. We plan to visit the Vandenberg Space and Missile Technology Education Center at the Historic Space Launch Complex #10. The visit is scheduled from 1:00 to 3:30 pm. The tour is limited to US citizens and preregistration is required. The Vandenberg side trip has been announced in the last couple of So Cal meet- ings and newsletters. I would like to invite the Nor Cal members as well, and apologize for the late invitation. Please let me know if you or anyone from NorCal would like attend. If so, then I need to know the full name, date of birth, driver’s license number, and US citizenship (required) for everyone that wants to attend. This information is needed for the tour application, which I plan to submit by April 19th. Again, I apologize for the late notice. Please don’t hesitate to call or reply to this message if you have any questions. I am looking forward to seeing the NorCal group again next month.

Kurt races and knows this exciting racing from the inside. I want to thank Matt Stevens for bringing Kurt to our meeting. September 4th General Meeting On August 18th we had a day run to Avila Beach.

  • 2017 Criminal Forfeitures in Minnesota
    STATE OF MINNESOTA Office of the State Auditor Rebecca Otto State Auditor Criminal Forfeitures in Minnesota For the Year Ended December 31, 2017 Description of the Office of the State Auditor The mission of the Office of the State Auditor is to oversee local government finances for Minnesota taxpayers by helping to ensure financial integrity and accountability in local governmental financial activities.
