Johnny opened the meeting by welcoming the 60 members and guest. Guest included Mike Abbott, Steve Eggers, Kevin Bogue, Steve Montgomery and Aydin Muchmore. He then thanked Alan Cole, Jerry Cox, Lin Neal, Dale Hastings, Mike Cooper and Jerry Magsig for arranging the burgers and chicken sandwiches provided at Wally Hatchets in Bartlett. We also welcomed Peyton Hardy back into the club after a prolonged absence. Welcome back Peyton!
After welcoming everyone Johnny gave a quick update on where we are with the show. He told everyone there that we needed more help when it came to registration and checking the cars in at the gate. The work schedule was passed around and a few men changed what they were scheduled to do. If you need to make a change contact Clint Holland or Johnny Hylander.
Everything seems to be ready for the show with the exception of loading the trailers with everything Johnny has stored at his house from AutoZone. We will need volunteers to help load trucks ay Johnny’s and then reload it into the trailers at Raymonds house. (this was done and we had plenty of help) AutoZone and Speed Master hooked us up with some really good stuff this year.
Our next meeting (Oct.) will be back at the library in Southaven.

HUMOR
A businessman walks into his office building and notices an obviously inexperience handyman painting the walls. The handyman was wearing two parkas. The business man found this odd because it wasn’t cold outside, it was a hot summer day. When his curiosity got the better of him he asked the painter why he was wearing two parkas. The handyman showed him the instructions on the can and it said “For best results, put on two coats!”
England’s oldest woman turned 114 this week. When asked what the secret to her longevity was, she attributed it to taking long walks at midnight in the park every night. When asked whether she was concerned with all the muggings in recent months, she said she was not and would continue mugging people as long as her health holds out!.
