President’s Report
November 7th is the SGCCC Big
Day. Our 37th Annual Fall Classic Car Show will be held at the Five
Points Shopping Center lot. Joe and his team, Mike and Tiffany, have done a great job in
planning and getting us ready for the show. It all starts on Friday night before the event. We
sweep and clean the lot so everything will be
safe and presentable. On Saturday morning we show up at 7:30 AM to get the coffee go-
ing, start the music, get our parking atten-dants in position and just generally get ready.
All of this is a lot of fun for everyone who participates.
I am generally of the opinion that each member decides if they want to do all events
or do no events. The SGCCC appreciates you either way or somewhere in between. How-
ever, I am asking all members to please come
to the show, invite others to come to the show, find cars that would like to be in the
show or at least display. We need cars at the venue!!! Of course all member cars are eligi-
ble to participate since we have outside judg-ing. You do not all need to be there on Friday
night. You do not all need to be there at 7:30
on Saturday morning. But I am asking all members to come and bring your cars to the
show. You will be rewarded with fun, music, prizes, and possibly trophies. What more
could you want.
Hope to see everyone on November 7th, the
first Saturday in November at the Five Points. Donna will pour you a free cup of coffee, Bob
will twist your arm about the 50/50, Fred and Hardy will be looking for members, Logan
will be looking for club officers, Walt will have
his golf cart, Ed and Annette will bring the Cruiser, and maybe we will see the Fowlers
and the Bennetts. Thanks.
Until next time.

November 2020—We begin the month with Na-
tional Election Day and end it with Thanksgiving Day.
What a great month, and a nice change in the
weather.
We had another great monthly meeting in October-
and the November one should be just as lively, as we
make final preparations for the Fall Classic Car & Truck
Show scheduled for the first Saturday of November.
We will also be presented with a slate of officers for
2021.
You can see from the photos in this issue that there
were a lot of club related activities during October
and some interesting car shows just a few miles north
and south of Valdosta. Thanks to Joe, Richard, Dan
Chris, and Hardy for all the pictures.
During this season of the year, let us remember the
things for which we can truly be thankful. Of tese, we
can all be thankful for life, health, and the freedom we
enjoy that allows us to pursue those things that make
us happy. As we approach the Christmas season, we
are thankful for the Greatest Gift of All—God’s Gift
of His Son to be the Savior of the world.
As always, we welcome submissions from club
members to include in the Driver’s Seat. Simply sub-
mit be email to [email protected].
Let’s have a great rest of the
year.
Happy Cruising!
