FROM
THE
PRESIDENT’S DESK
Winter is definitely here with temperatures plunging into the 20s and reports of freezing rain, sleet and even
snow close to the Ark La Tex. It wasn’t
that much warmer at the show and
shine we had for ANECA Federal Credit
Union the second Saturday in November. This was our second show and
shine for them as a club sponsor. It
was a cloudy and blustery day, with
little sprinkles here and there throughout the morning. The ANECA staff
came out and grilled hot dogs, and
brought along several different types
of chips along with drinks to go with
the dawgs. Even though it wasn’t the
best day to have a show, we still had a
great turn out with over 10 cars, with
most everyone hanging out until noon
even with the relentless threat of rain.
Thanks to everyone who came out to
support one of our Sponsors.
Our next big activity, is the World of
Wheels show January 23-26 2014.
We had a sign-up sheet at our November meeting and had quite a few
members sign up, but we still have a
long way to go to get the number of
volunteers we need for the show.
Please mark these days on your calendar, and sign up for what you can to
help us out. It is always a great time
every year for me. Yes, I run around
most of the time helping out with manpower as needed, but it is a chance to
get away from my real 9-5 job. I also
get to see some great cars along with
meeting and visiting with lots of new
fascinating car people, and get the
chance to reconnect with old friends.
Don’t forget that you can come in early
before your shift, or stay after and
check out the show for free as compensation for your time. The other
perk is as always, not only the chance
to help out our community by supporting a show that brings a lot of money
into the area, but also a big opportunity to earn points toward that one of a
kind Top Points Jacket we will be giving away at the Christmas party next
year.
Finally, I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.
Enjoy your friends and family during
the holidays, and keep warm. I look
forward to seeing
everyone in the
New Year and find
out what kinds of
great gifts (killer
car parts) you may
have received for
Christmas.

UPCOMING ACTIVITIES
I can't believe another successful year has gone by and Christmas and the new year are right around the
corner. We really don't have much going on since winter is approaching. We have our annual club Christmas Party following our meeting on Saturday the 7th. Meeting is a 5:00 Asbury Church in Bossier City
and the party is at 6:30 Silver Star in Haughton. Don't forget to bring your round robbin gift exchange
presents. This is an adult only party so make sure you have a baby sitter.
Our monthly board meeting is Wednesday the 18th 6:30 Reed Industrial off Mt Zion Dr. We will be discussing the final thoughts and plans on the World of Wheels display and the volunteer work for the show.
We will start off the new year in January with World of Wheels and then cruises and shows all start back
up in April.
I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Joyous New Year. Don't forget I am looking for someone to
take over the Activities Director Position. Please let me know if you are interested and I will get with you
on supplying all my notes from the past.

Just to let you know we have cut checks for Christmas Spirit:
$500.00 for the adopt a family
$1000 for the kids in the Bossier Parish Foster Care
Program (what is not spent will be returned)
$400 donation to Asbury UMC for giving us a meeting place
$250 to Shreveport Bossier Rescue Mission
anyone wants to donate money, I will go to Brookshire and purchase a card so they can have a
Christmas meal.
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, we sure
did!
Looking forward to seeing you at the Christmas Party and throughout the New Year!

One of our adopt a families from last year contacted me before Thanksgiving to advise me
on their situation. The oldest boy is no longer
living there, the youngest boy (Sam) needs
your prayers he is unwilling to behave and will
probably go to a Home if he doesn’t start going
to school. The young girl is doing fine and the
grandmother is doing ok.
It was too late when they called, so we were
not able to do anything for them this year. If

This is my last article as Show Director. The past six years has been an incredible run and our annual
Mustang Roundup will only continue to be better with your new Director.
I would have liked to thank everyone personally for all the help and support you have given me these past
six years. But, unfortunately, my plans to be there for the Christmas party just didn’t pan out. Please
know, all of your donations of time, money, goods and etc have been truly appreciated and the Show
wouldn’t have been happened without the support of the entire Club.
I miss all of my Mustang Family and hope to be there to visit and raise a pint with you all again soon!

The annual World of Wheels Custom Car Show is January 24th
–26th at the Shreveport Convention Center.
We need as many volunteers as possible to work the show and
“man” our display.
Speaking of our display—several members have been putting a
lot of work into building the club display. As you can see here,
one wheel is almost ready for paint.
