A few famous Ladies you may not have heard of....
Sounding like the Academy Awards...I would like to thank my mother...and your mother too. If it wasn't for those ladies, most of us (lol) would not be here if it weren't for a woman and we wouldn't be having a great time at Keystone's 3rd Saturday
Herb and Carol Wagner Memorial Car Show.
Thank you to
Renee Martoglio for the generous donation that has kept us in trophies for 2+ years.
Thank you to
Gen Rummy for creating the WOK/Women Of Keystone and the monthly Special Programs, for brewing up and providing 730AM coffee, Root Beer Floats, bottled water, and a Day at The Beach without having to actually go to the beach.
Thank you to Keystone Administrator and purchasing agent,
Danni Wells for the monthly support and the ideas, the sounding board critiques, and the negotiating for Keystone on her way to Striving for Great, not just Good.
Thank you to
Gail Holsen, photographer and co-anchor with
Dan Holsen for Keystone's Facebook member page (search Keystone Motor Car Club Members) and to
Isabella Bradley creator of KMC;'s original Facebook page.
Thank you to
Carol Prentice, wife of
Sam Prentice, founders of Keystone Motor Club and
Linda Martin, KMC's prior Meeting Notification Secretary.
And thank you to all the WOK/Women Of Keystone who attended on a cloudy day.

Once again
Rickster and two other guys who don't sign in beat me into the parking lot.
This was on a day that looked a little cloudy. I had sent out the rainy day policy that states you can bring a substitute car so you don't get your show car wet and dirty and we drew names for trophies and prizes as promised.
Rick says to me: "
Bob, I checked with
Paul Dellagato and he says it won't rain until after we leave." Folks you can't get any better advice than that. Even 6 hours later it had not rained. 23 people signed in....a bunch more drove in, hung out a while, and had a good time.
-------------------------------------------
Connor Boggs, graduating Senior, Eastlake High School helped with sign-ins, raffle drawings, and who knows what all.
Danni Wells did the 50/50 Club Participation and door prizes.
Earl Baker won the Best Of Show Gift Certificate with his '50 Ford.
Larry Clark won Best Of Show Trophy with his 307 Chevy.
Kurt Kalbach won and donated the Club Participation money back to the club. Thank you sir!

Kurt and Mechiel Kalbach took me up on the rainy day policy when they drove over in their
1999 FL60 Freightliner. I was looking up by about six feet into
Mechiel's smiling face
when she said: "Well,
Bob, you said we could bring a substitute vehicle!"
So I signed them in. lol
By chance if a KMC member doesn't know, a Freightliner is the tractor part of a tractor-trailer and it is huge!
A great picture would be
Kurt's '79 Trans Am Firebird parked nearest the camera with both vehicles in the same picture and the FL60 Freightliner as a background behind it.
It was a first time happening for Keystone Motor Club.
Kurt will give you the story about the unique details of both his Firebird Trans Am and the story of his FL60 Freightliner. NO ONE has seen a Freightliner engine at a car show.
Kurt can drive too. He backed the Freightliner into the North lot like he had done it before!
It was another great day in the Keystone Zone, folks, and we thank you for stopping by.
