On 19 March,
Rick the Rickster was first into the lot (he beat me there) He said he was going for a car show tri-fecta with two other shows following Keystones meet/show. Get 'em
Rick!
It was a great day. Costumes were great.
Even the Best Of Show trophy had a Shamrock Necklace!
I'm glad to be seeing more fun-type-people dressing up.
It encourages others to do the same, and what
Gen Rummy started last year
is getting bigger and better. She also passed out the Lorna Doone History to each car.
Lorna Doone was a real person.
We ate Lorna Doone Cookies, Mini Cinnamons and Green Cookies that came from Publix
thanks to
Danni wells who also donated a bunch of St Patricks Day door prizes and a new lighter weight Table to put them on.
I goofed up and didn't get the North lot unlocked early enough.
Maybe we need another "Key" person lol ........groan....booo.
Tammy Whitlock kept open the showroom at Matlock Homes Glamorous Kitchens
so we could use the bathrooms.
-----------------------------------------
Maybe one size fits all...including my fat head...lol
I looked like a dork in the green derby bowler hat......a few sizes too big and resting on my ears...lol or tucking my ears inside slightly.
but.........when a woman hands you something that she got for you
It is a thoughtful gesture from her and should be appreciated...which I do appreciate.
A guy should always support a woman's idea and not disappoint her.
Wondering if I can snip out some openings to let my ears through?
or if it would lower the hat too much......hmmm ...we will see.
Wondering about other stuff to do to it.........also to jazz it up a bit for next year.
Maybe I'm becoming more of a fun-type guy.
The hat band said "Kiss me I'm Irish"
I couldn't find a woman willing to change me into a handsome prince
from being a green shirted frog.....with a green hat....lol but plenty of guys winked at me.... lol Maybe not.......
Vic Piano drew tickets and used his announcer's voice to call winners names and
ticket numbers.
Danni Wells operated the 50/50 Club Participation and we paid $67 to the winner.
---------------------------------
The
Herb and Carol Wagner Memorial Car Show Best Of Show Trophy was won by
Marty Higbee of Christian Hot Rodders Association car club with the highest lifted 4X4
truck ever seen at Keystone Motor Club. CHRA has a cruise-in with food discounts every Saturday 5-8PM at the 50's Diner at 1730 US 19 34691.
Ron and Diane Thomas won the Best Of Show $25 Gift Certificate.
We gave out gold "Good Luck" coins with a 4 leaf clover to people who could not escape me fast enough.
------------------------------------
For April the special theme is a Cackle Berry Party (know what those are?) and we will have a basket of Free Lucky Easter eggs which the first 40 people can draw from. The eggs contain free 50/50 red tickets, actual Honest American Cash, Chinese cookie fortunes, the last of the Good Luck 4 leaf gold coins, and a few joke items. Several Easter eggs have more than one prize. Check in at registration as soon as you arrive and choose yours.
