Club After Christmas Party January 18th 1-5PM
After the holidays, let's get the Mustangs back out and show off the
new goodies we got for them at the club after Christmas party. It will
be held on Saturday January 18th at Keith and Deb Corkern's home in
Braselton from 1-5. If you need directions, I have emailed them out to
the membership. The club will provide meat, bread, fixings for
sandwiches, and drinks. Members are asked to bring their favorite
side and/or dessert. We will eat first, then hold our meeting, and then
have our white elephant gift exchange, see pictures to left from 2013.
To properly plan the quantity of food to order, we do need rsvp's from
those that are planning to attend. Please email me with your rsvp, and
the number in your party by Sunday January 5th.
Toys 4 Tots Drop Off & December Meeting
We held our annual toy purchase at the Cleveland Walmart and drop
off at Jacky Jones Ford on December 7th
. As you can see from the
pictures to the left, we had a great time as always, we were able to
purchase $2,900 of toys plus the toys collected at our show at
Mustangs Unlimited in October. We held our December meeting at
Jacky Jones after the drop off, then caravanned over to Hawg Wild in
Clarkesville for a late lunch. We had a great turnout for this
worthwhile cause, I counted 20 cars that turned out at the Walmart, and
40 people at lunch.
Thanks Debra Ramey for helping us out at Walmart and supplying
your employee discount to make the $ stretch even further.

Toys 4 Tots Show/Moonshine Fest.
We held our Toys 4 Tots show at Mustangs Unlimited on
October 19th. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate
and the turnout was light. We still gathered a table full of
toys and had a great time.
Several of us went up to the shows at the Moonshine
festival on both days. Many nice cars, several awards for
club cars both days, and who can forget the fried pies and
other good eats, right Kenny?
We had our October meeting at
Vogel State Park. We ate
hamburgers, hot dogs, and all kinds
of other goodies, then had our
meeting. After the meeting several
of us took a pony run across Hwy
180 and the Richard Russell Scenic
Highway, stopping for the views a
couple of times before heading
home. On the way to the meeting,
we also ran the section of 180
between Suches and 129, which is a
great drive, unless of course you’re
following a slow Harley.

Looking Back
Welcome to Our New Members
JD & Yuling Chansard Lawrenceville 2013 Boss 302 Laguna Seca
Elliot & Sue Sande Gainesville 1991 5.0 Coupe & several Chevys
Chad & Caitlyn Ferguson Cleveland 2008 GT Coupe
Kevin Evans Winder 2006 Convertible, 1980 Pinto wagon
Interestly, JD is a native of France, and a member of a French Mustang Club that is planning to attend the
50th
Mustang birthday party in Charlotte. They are flying into Atlanta, renting some Mustangs, and touring
Atlanta and the surrounding areas. JD is putting together an itinerary, so as we get closer to April, and they
firm up their plans, we will be trying to find an evening where we can meet them for dinner, maybe some
good bbq, and give them the opportunity to see some of our Mustangs.
Saturdays Awards at the Moonshine Festival
Other Club Activities
We are planning a meeting in early to
mid February at Rick & Cher’s house to
start planning the 2014 Maggie Valley
show, this will not be a club meeting, but
decisions made at this planning session
will be vetted at the next club meeting. If
you are interested in being more active in
the show planning, please let me know
and we will try to come up with a date
that works for everyone.
An interest has been expressed in having
club antenna flags made up for display on
our cars at shows. Cher is working on
finding a vendor and getting a cost for
our next meeting. We would sell these to
members at cost, and keep some in club
stock.

Spring Pony Roundup
The date has been set for our Spring Pony Roundup show at
Mustangs Unlimited. It is on Saturday March 15th
from 10-4
with a rain date of Sunday March 16th. Members will need to
be there by 8:30 to help setup for the show. This show helps
fund our activities during the year, and also adds to what we
can donate to charity during the year. So come out and give us
a hand, and show your car.
50th Mustang Birthday Party in Charlotte
This celebration of the 50th
anniversary of the date Mustang
first went on sale is scheduled for April 17th
-20th
, 2014 at
Charlotte Motor Speedway and Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
At least 12-15 club members/couples are planning on
attending the Charlotte event. Close hotels are hard to find,
so if you want to go, check the MCA website for help with
hotel suggestions. They will cut off car registration on
3/1/14, make sure you register by then. This is not a
carshow, there will be no judging, but you can register for an
award of excellence if you have won an award at a MCA
event in 2012 or 2013, cut off for registering for awards is
2/28/14. There is track time available, both drag & road
course, many vendors are planning to attend, I would expect
to see many more vendors than at a MCA national. Check
www.mustang.org or call Rick at 678-371-5799 for more
info.
