Three great
things have happened in the Potomac Region (PR) in September.
1.
Annual Picnic
PR
Past-Director Dan Ruby and his wife Jo Jo hosted another
great summer picnic for us. All year we
looked forward to it. Then on Saturday, September 13 we got our chance to
actually enjoy the cars, the company, the food and the weather. Dan & Jo
Jo, we can’t thank you enough!
2. New
Payment Options
The PR has
always had two methods of dues payment: cash and check. They work.
Nowadays the internet offers more options, and PR is ready to accept two of
them: bank transfer and money transfer apps. For bank transfers, PR will
provide you with encrypted banking information on request. Concerning money
transfer apps, PR is starting a limited pilot project (for 2026-27
membership renewal only) with Zelle. A separate email will be sent to
members where they can opt-in by October 6.
We’re doing
this for three good reasons: a) to make it easier on members, b) to make it
easier on prospective members, and c) to make it easier on the officers.
That covers just about everybody who wants in.
3. New
Members
Two new
members joined the Region last month from afar: James Frolich of Walnut
Creek, CA; and from afuther,* Ignacio Loyola of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. You
may remember Ignacio and his cars from recent articles in the Caddie
Chronicle and The Self-Starter.
That
summarizes the highlights of September. Mail in your vote on which of the
three phenomena was greatest. (Just kidding. They’re all good!)
Upcoming:
In October,
PR and neighboring regions will staff the CLC Hershey tent. Be an
ambassador for the classic Cadillac marque, and pull a shift under the
tent. See CLC Tent at Fall Hershey information on page 3 of the
Caddie Chronicle where you can “Sign in, please!” (Who
remembers John Daly on What’s My Line?)
