As you know we need raffle items for the event. With the added people from the Arizonian Pacific Zone Meet there is a need to have as many items for the raffle tables as possible. Of course, there will be the food table with all of the familiar items. Take a check at all of the items you have saved for a white elephant gift to see what you can donate for the raffle table. I am believing there a need for as many raffle items as we can locate with the combination of the La Palma Car Show & Southwest Pacific Zone Meet.

One day, the officer was amazed when everyone was under the speed limit, so he investigated and found the problem.

Volume 20 March 2021 P 9 HEMMINGS FEATURE Captains of Cool - Studebaker Why outwardly stable people just go crazy over Studebakers By Jim Donnelly from November 2013 issue of Hemmings Classic Car https://www.hemmings.com/stories/article/captains-of-cool-studebaker In This Article It's a wild thing to watch, really. You figure that South Bend, Indiana, is a personification of middle-American stability and conservatism. The cars that were produced there, by a company whose roots were in hewing wagons for the pioneers, reflect those values. Dignified, reliable, elegant, but never out of line or improper. And yet, hundreds upon hundreds of Studebaker fanatics are flatly in love with them. 1937 Studebaker Dictator This is what you take away from any gathering of Studebaker owners, even if they're just sitting around somebody's living room or deck: unforced, innocent affection, the kind of emotional purity that welds a lifelong bond among people who love the products of this proud, fallen independent.
