As I write this the Bylaws Election is still in process. I will update you on the results in February.

The full calendar is under construction but it is going to be a great year. We already started with over 40 cars on the “One One Fun Run” to Hamburger Ranch. Our next event is the Run for the Crab on February 15th. Hold the Date of September 13th on your calendar for a special event.

It is PCA’s 70th Anniversary and we are working on an event to celebrate in style.

Don’t forget you can always join us at the monthly Board Meeting. They are held the last Tuesday of each month at Torches Restaurant in Petaluma.

This is your Club and your voice is always welcome.

Hope to see you at an event soon

Sharon
