FABAC June 18th meeting (according to Bob E.)

    It was another noisy evening at McGinnis's Landing under clearing skies that brought those darned FABACians out again.  Three of them even had their goofy little cars out...with tops down no less.
     Some guy named Gary did a lot of arm waving and general gesticulating to get everyone's attention before delivering a number of ultimatums.
  1. New member Patrick Peterson and his not-quite-ready-for-prime-time 69 MGB was introduced to the club and they were all warned to be nice to him. Welcome Patrick and just wait until Gary turns his back, then you'll get it. 
  2. The Dieppe car show takes place in...well...Dieppe and all where ordered, that's right ordered to go.  Most folks will meet at 9:00 AM at the Ramada parking lot and take the highway *gasp* to Moncton.  At least one other will eschew the cursed highway and take the lovely (and empty) back roads leaving around 7 in the morning.  That's this Saturday, the 21st. 
  3. The Windsor show is in (you guessed it) Windsor July 12th and 13th.  Some guy named Joe (reminds me of a song by Arlo Guthrie) yakked about it for awhile.  Seems he really likes the ferry and scenic drive. 
  4. There's a fair in Stanley August 16th and 17th and the club will make an appearance. 
  5. The weekend of the 23rd of August brings an invitation from two really nice club members (not sucking up for fuel injectors) to attend a games afternoon at their place in Stanley.  It will be pot luck and all are encouraged to bring pellet or paint ball guns to play 'Sink the Pirate ship'. 
  6. Ralph from Saint john proposed (by proxy) some runs down to Maine in the fall. The Owl's Head museum is of particular interest. 
  7. Johanna Pendral thanked all supporters of her recent bike tour in Ontario in to raise money for cancer research. 
  8. The next meeting will take place at Sam Sneads restaurant at the golf course.
      After the meeting broke up a few folks went to Tingleys for ice cream and more chit chat.
      The evening ended with 'Mr Sense of direction' driving aimlessly around Lincoln, Oromocto,  Jemseg and finally Burton as he tried to find his way home.
