Simon on Friday and

the Holmses on Sat-

urday we sold

$370.00 worth of

tickets and now are

in the black for both

prizes.

The mini tour that

we made last month

resulted in 12 cars in

our parade to B&B

Automotive in New-

ark Valley, including

one couple who

might be prospective

new members.

We will be busy in

the next month and

a half preparing for

the show and need

much help selling

adds, trophy spon-

sorship and just plain

grunt work for the

car show, we need all

your help!

The car show is fast

approaching, but we

still have to make it

through July. First of

all we will be meeting

on July 21 for our

annual picnic meet-

ing. This year through

the generous offer of

John and Lisa Milton

we will met at their

home at 890 Jones

Road, Vestal. For you

who might not know

how to get there, the

easiest route is from

the Vestal Parkway,

turn south onto Ar-

lington Ave. At the

stop sign continue on

Tracy Creek Rd. to

left turn on Jones Rd.

The Milton’s drive is

on the left with an

antique gas pump at

the entrance. We will

be meeting at

6:00P.M. The Miltons

felt we might be bet-

ter off at their home

than at the Trout

Ponds as they are

less apt to have an-

noying bugs as well

as they have shelter if

we should have rain

as our luck seems to

run for the last

three picnics.

Our participation in

the Strawberry Pa-

rade resulted in 12

cars, 6 from Tioga

Region and 6 from

Crusin’ Buddies. We

also had, through the

generous efforts of

Jim Meade a booth at

the Festival where

we displayed and

sold tickets for the

peddle car and tool

box. Thanks to the

efforts of George

State Legislation Postponed

T I O G A T R A N S M I S S I O N

The above legislations were all Introduced many years ago as an incen-

tive for new inductees to our hobby. Each would add to the attraction for

those who are thinking of joining our forces. The benefit of each would

increase the number of cars in our state that are dedicated to our efforts,

and add to the preservation of our automotive history.

It is time for our representatives in Albany to remember that it was us

who put them in their position and they need to give consideration to our

program. The antique car hobby adds not thousands but millions to the

economy each year, our voice should be recognized by those we elected!

A New Tioga Connection Last year we had a

nice tour to Roch-

ester for the Lilac

Festival, and we

were fortunate to

make as connection

with Genesee Valley

Antique Car Soci-

ety in the form of

their president Pat

Thorp. We also had

contact with our

quick to become

fast friends, Don &

Chris Deer.

As a result of meet-

ing these people we

were able to add

four car collections

to our tour! We

also were able to

help Don and Chris

to plan a tour for

GVACS to our

area.

Cheryl and Have

continued to build a

friendship with the

Deers and recently

discovered that

GVACS was looking

to improve their

car show judging

program. They

asked us if we

would show them

how Tioga Region

handled the judging

of our show.

In the past Genesee

Region hired judges

to come to their

show and, using a

points system, judge

their show. This ex-

pensive method not

only cut into their

ability to do the

charitable work

they wanted to ac-

complish but also

was becoming

more difficult to

find qualified judges.

Cheryl and I met

with the Deers and

a couple named the

Huffmans to show

them our proven

method using the

show participants

as judges. Although

there are some of

GVACS members

who resist change,

as there are in all

regions, it is the

hope that Genesee

Region will begin to

use the method

that we of Tioga

Region have devel-

oped.

Genesee Region

will also be pro-

moting our show

by stuffing their

welcome bags with

flyers for our show.

N E W S L E T T E R T I T L E

I get lots of flyers in

the mail for car events

so I am using them for

fillers in this newslet-

ter. Hope you find

them to be of interest.
