For those of you who know about the Silver Spring Tour, and those of you who do not, here is the latest information from Van Maddox, our fearless leader in this tour! There are several clubs going to this event, so if you are still interested in going on this trip, please contact Van Maddox for availability. It is an awesome weekend event!
Model A Tour to Silver Springs
March 27, 28, 29
The following is the plan for the Central Florida Model A Tour to Silver Springs
We are certain that there is no way that we will be able to collect the entrance money from each one of you separately, therefore we are requiring one person from each club to collect cash money from each one in your club and give Van Maddox or Jeff Stewart Cash Money to purchase the tickets.
The price is $34.00 per car for two persons for each car attending and $17.00 for each car attending with only one person in a Model A and the price includes Tax.. Our contract with Silver Springs states that we need to provide cash for the tickets (no checks or credit cards) no later than 4:00pm on Friday afternoon, March 27. Please get the cash to us a little before 3:00pm. to allow us time to go over to purchase the tickets.
On Saturday March 28 we will enter the park at 9:00am. We will park the cars in next to the stage and then we can set up our chairs right in front of the stage. After setting up you can leave the park for food and necessities and at 10:00am you will be able to tour the park. You need to bring your own chairs.
Entertainment usually starts at about 12:00 noon and the featured act starts at 2:00 to 3:00pm. The featured entertainer for this show will be Glen Cambell.We will leave the park at 5:00pm and return to the Motel. As you know from the Villages Tour, this is a party group with a party on Friday and Saturday nights at the Motel. Everyone brings finger food or a dish to share. Please bring the drink of your choice. There is a nice little restaurant just across the street from the Motel if you want to walk to a place for dinner.
The party breaks up on Sunday morning and each club starts their tour back home. We look forward to seeing all of you nice people since we enjoyed the last gathering so much. If you have questions, feel free to call or E mail us.

Car Show Opportunities - not official club activities
Good morning,
Happy New Year and welcome to 2009. There are a couple of great car shows coming up in the Apopka area in Feb. and March I wish to call to your attention. "at the Hop" is a benefit for the Cancer Resource Center at Apopka High School and will include a classic car show, limited to 1972 or older, a bike show, dancing and entertainment and hot dogs and hamburgers included in the price of admission. There will be 3 People's Choice Awards. The event will run from 3 pm to whenever, with food served from 3-6 pm, and the date is Sunday, Feb. 15. The show is sponsored by Zellwood Pub & Cafe and SRS Catering and will be held at Windy Hill Ranch at 3620 Kelly Park Rd., Apopka, FL. The owners of the Zellwood Pub and owners of Windy Hill Ranch are both dear friends of ours, and the cause is certainly a worthy one, and we hope you will come out and support the event. Advance tickets are $10/person and at the door $15/person. For more information, tickets, or entry registration, please email SRSCatering@aol.com or phone 407-509-4744.
The second show is the 9th Annual APOPKA FAIR CAR SHOW and will be held March 14 & 15 at Kit Land Nelson Park in Apopka, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Primary sponsor of this event is the Rotary Club of Apopka. Registration begins both days at 8:30, and, as always, is FREE. It is an Antique, Classic, Special Interest show with dash plaques, great door prizes, and 5 People's Choice Awards each day with participant and spectator voting. Some of the door prizes include 8 tire clocks with really neat wheels and a wrench and screw driver as hands. In addition to the car show, there is a giant midway, live entertainment, crafters, and a number of food vendors. Something new this year is a Club Participation Award on SUNDAY ONLY, with a minimum of 5 cars attending. Of course, the tree filled park is one of the most beautiful venues for a car show in the area. We welcome you to attend one day, or both, as your schedule permits. I will continue to keep you updated as we get closer to each of these events and look forward to seeing you at one or both of them. As always, if you have any questions, or would like to make a comment, please contact me at my email address, luvr56@aol.com, or call me at 407-886-5844. Thanks for your past support of the Rotary sponsored APOPKA FAIR. Take care. Lowell

Car Show Invitation
Our newest member Ron Schell has sent this message to our club:
The 'resort' we stay in had a car show last year, their first, and it went over pretty well. They are planning it again this year and we were wondering if some of the A club members might like to attend. I am sure I could arrange group parking and the folks here sure do like the older cars.
