In attendance: Gordon & Elaine Bueling, Tom & Sandy Damm, Ann & Gordon Edwards, Jerry & Joan Gieseke, Ron & DeAnn Hochhalter, Peter & Patty Olmstead, Jim & Linda Mackey, and Donna Clemmens & guest.

Old Business:

Club Members’ Health -- Patty Olmstead reported that Page Hitt is doing fairly well and Gordon Edwards added that they would appreciate a visit if you are in their area. (See follow-on information.)

New Business:

Club 2012 Calendar – Patty received pictures that could be used in a club calendar. She could use more pictures and requested them by the January meeting. After a discussion of how many to get printed Ron stated that he thought Bill Hitt usually ordered around 20.

Next three Club Meetings will be as follows -- Jan 14, Feb 18, and Mar 17 and they will all be at BonVino’s Restaurant in Sunnyside. All commencing at Noon.

Other Important Club/Events Dates in 2012 -- Ron reminded us that the Bickelton Car Show is scheduled for Labor Day this year to avoid a conflict with the Zone Meet in Tacoma.

Avanti #1001 Report -- Ron and DeAnn reported that Avanti #1 was delivered to their shop for final body work and painting. It was soda blasted in Spokane to remove the old paint. The LeMays Museum hopes to have it completed so it can be shown at the International Meet this year. Joan stated that since the club has funds in the treasury we should consider doing something to help with the restoration of the car. Ron stated that any fund donations should be done through the Museum. There was no motion made and no action taken. Ron did invite everyone to come to the shop after the meeting to take a look at the car. See attached link to article in the Sunnyside "Daily Sun News" --

Loss of a Dear Club Member:

Informed by Gordon Bueling and Ann Edwards that Paige Hitt passed on December 25th, 2011. Services have already occurred. PLEASE keep Bill Hitt in your prayers and thoughts. A very large loss to us all. Spoke with Bill, he is well, and hopes to see us soon.
