This is going on this upcoming Saturday..Please come by and help when you can, as long as people are willing to help with the car wash, we'll go as long as we can.. Dave, along with a few others will be running things. I'll be stopping by during my lunch break to helpout and immediately after work. Karen will also be coming by after work sometime around 1:00pm. The weather forecast looks great and we have a great location, so this looks to be beneficial for Rocky and his family.. Thanks in advance for everyone that will be coming out to help!!!!

1. Car Wash

Thank you to the following people for giving up your time to help a person in need. Alicia, Dave, Jon, Geri, Paul, Allen, Betty, Steven, Michelle, Donnie, Tony, Sheri, Jody, Wayne, Tammi, Pete, Floyd, and Karen. It's good to know that members of the club are willing to help others when the time calls. I couldn't have been any more prouder then today to see and know that people really care about others without any hesitation. Most of the people today that worked and volunteered so eagerly, did so without even knowing Rocky personally. This says alot about the character of this club and it's members. We couldn't succeed as a club without individuals like this as members. I tip my hat to all of you. Great job everyone.

Now for the day, even with the competition that was going on at the opposite end of the parking lot (car wash/bake sale), we still managed to collect $268 for Rocky Gilbert. After the event was over, it was an honor to handover all the proceeds to Rocky's father. Mr. Gilbert, was astounished and very thankful for all the hard work everyone had performed. Knowing that people were this unselfish to help without return expectations, says a lot about our club, stated Mr. Gilbert.

Once again, thank you everyone that came and helped. This couldn't have work without your committment.

your vere welcome. glad i got to help...

im glad to see when the chips are down. There are still people ou there that will help no matter what.. Thanks guys.

He was a old frend of mine.

I so wanted to be there but had already told someone I would help them move. We did not get done until almost 5pm and I figured you all where done by then. I am glad you all are doing more then one event so that I will have a chance to help out.

FYI-

One of the items that will be up for silent auction is a NAPA Racing cap signed by both Michael Waltrip from Nascar and Ron Capps from NHRA Funny car. Not that hard to get one or the other, but both together is a rare one!!

Hey
Would it be ok to wear costumes to this?

Eddie wears one to every meet.

Why not?

Hey Rdie, I have command thing going on at the same time. I am willing to drop the car off and it can be there while I am at the command thing and then I will be back after the command thing is from 1-3pm. I would like to do both but I already said I would go to the command thing since it is given out info about the guys coming home. I will call ya in the AM and talk to you about droping off the stang for the show. If all you need is the car and not the body then we can be in but if we have to stay well then that might cause an issue and we would have to miss out. The guys are coming home in 3 weeks so everything is rushed and very confusing for the guys and people back at home. hugs and I wish everyone the best.

So if it is starting at 1pm, what time is everyone meeting up? Exactly where is at in the GSM parking lot?

Just wanted to say what a good time I had today, getting out and talking to with everybody was very therapeutic for me. It was great to see all the Wildhorses and talk to all the people that came out. And it was to support a fellow member. It was just a win-win kind of day for me. Hope everyone had as much fun as I did.

dont forget to bring that car down to me sheri...... ill take good care of you.

No problems, and I got a neighbor who will be coming by too.
