Saturday November 1st - Model A Olympics


On Your Mark, Get Set, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

This is your friendly reminder that this is the weekend that not only do we change our clocks back Saturday night, But more exciting than that this Saturday morning we have our Model A Olympics in Clermont at Bills Barn!
So make sure to put on your racing gloves and get that model A over to
12121 C W Harrell Road, Clermont, Fl. 34711
(½ mile past Hancock on John’s Lake road, on the right corner of John’s Lake Road and W. Harrell Road) and be ready to
RUMBLE!

REMEMBER these things as you prepare your house to leave and head to Clermont:
1. Did you pack a chair to sit on?
2. Did you pack your check book? Cause you need to buy your tickets to the Christmas Banquet this weekend!
3. Did you pack a $5 donation for each person to cover the cost of the huge spaghetti dinner that Rosemary has planned?
4. Did you bring your appetite for donuts and spaghetti? (not together LOL)
5. Are you going to make it to Clermont by 9:30ish?

Special Note – as you enter the property and pay your $5 donation (kind of like a ticket booth) then Bill would like you to sign a blanket waver as he is not the only owner of that property, and he is trying to protect the other owners who are not model A’ers. That waver will read something like this:
The persons whose names and signatures appear below fully understand that any activity carries with it a degree of risk of damage or harm to persons and property. In return for admittance to the property address above, the persons whose names appear below do accept responsibility for any such damage to their personal property or harm of any kind to their persons. These persons also agree to hold harmless the owners of the property at the address shown above for any reason including areas that may be construed as negligent.

Ok – Cant wait to see everybody this Saturday! If you know for sure that you are coming Saturday – please email me and let me know! floridamodela@embarqmail.com Its not an official RSVP, but Rosemary wants to be sure to have enough spaghetti! Thanks – Sandi
