Royal (outside of US Naval Hospital Bft.) The Friends of Caroline Hospice have asked for a car display on

September 3^rd. That is our scheduled cruise in and we will not deviate. The club would be willing to do

something on Saturday the 4^th. Members are encouraged to support this worthwhile cause.

7. The Daytona Turkey Run car show is scheduled for November 25-28, 2010.

II. Old Business:

1. The Executive Committee met to discuss problems and complaints on how judging is conducted at Cruise-ins. The

Exec. Committee agreed that membership should be limited to vehicles 20 model years and older of the current

calendar year. The sticking point was awarding plaques to newer cars at Cruise-ins. Once again, this an open show

and popular (public) vote.

The President passed out copies of recommendations for Friday Cruise Ins.

The committee has decided to try a new system at the August 6^th Cruise. Participants will register at the table and

completes a form with their name, address, e-mail, club affiliation, and car info. The second information car will be

given to the owner to display on his/her car. Members are needed to volunteer to mane the registration table.

Dave Carroll, Jim Colwell, and Frank Williams will help in August.Ballots will not be passed out until 6:30 PM to give

folks time to get to the Cruise. Voting will take place at 7:30-7:45 PM.

Those car owners who have won Best of Cruise will be asked if they would consider not vying for the Best of Cruise

award for the rest of the year. If they agree they are free to run for a runner up award. If they decline they are free to

try for another Best of Cruise.

26 members voted to try this approach and three dissented.

Rick Brown gave an update on the September 25th car show in conjunction with the

Beaufort Home Builders Association.

Rick said the name of the show will be the Beaufort Home, Garden, and Car Show and held at Beaufort Towne Center.

Approximately 300 cars can be accommodated. Overnight secured parking will be available.

Butler Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep has agreed to donate $500.00 for the trophies. There will 82 trophies awarded.

The show will start at 9:00 AM with awards given at 3:00 PM. Rick has nine judges coming in from outside the area.

Volunteers are welcomed to help out with registration spotting cars, etc

III. New Business:

Weddings, do we really want to get into this business? This season has seen a request for old cars more than ever. All

in attendance agreed that $300.00 should be the minimum. Part of the problem is that people are using the members

car photos to shop their favorite ride and then expect a car and driver for anywhere from 5 to 12 hours for $100. (Ain’t

going to happen!)

The September 3^rd cruise in will be sponsored by Callahan’s Sports Bar. Thanks to Vic Neely.

Rick Brown will host a covered dish at Islands of Beaufort club house for September 7^th meeting.

Adjourned at 7:50PM.

Minutes of the CCTCB Meeting on July 6, 2010

Held at Boondock’s Restaurant, St. Helena Island, SC

The meeting was called to order at 7:07p.m. by President Fran Forcione. Members approved the minutes of the June

meeting as they appeared on our website. Per Treasurer Jim Colwell we had $3031.38 as of meeting time.

Randy Lafferty, Membership Chair and Correspondence Secretary said he would talk with members present with dues

that are due and would contact those not at the meeting shortly. He also updated the group on Cruises coming up and

may be contacted for further information if needed.

Lowell Rorrer introduced his son, along with a neighbor and friend as guests at the meeting.

Last weekend’s 4^th of July weekend Cruise in at Grayco Friday was reported as a total success with 15 Race Cars and

60 Classic Rides! Member Bob Woodman brought his race cars (Woodman Tires), and Johnny McGrady owner of

“The Little Red Corvette” Team car was present with two of our members, John Lynam and Jeff Dowling. Mr.

Richard Gray again allowed the Cruise In at his parking lot on Route 21. Plaque Sponsor was Sweetgrass Restaurant of

Dataw. Fran gave special thanks to the above along with Vic Neeley, Rick Brown, Rob Hilton, Rick Pierce for help in

setup, publicity and cleanup. Thank you letters to the teams, Mr. Gray and Sweetgrass would be handled by Fran.

Per Executive Board it was decided NOT to participate in the July 31^st Motorcycle Benefit Run as the Wounded

Warrior group is not the same as our presently sponsored organization out of Jacksonville.

OLD BUSINESS:

The List-Serve Email Address - carclub@islc.net - is up and running. Fran Forcione will administering the program,

adding and deleting addresses. If you have any changes, please contact him.

VP Rick Brown updated the group on the September 25^th Car Show as part of the weekend Home/Garden & Car Show

taking place on Boundary St. near the Government Ctr. He will have a parking diagram and further layout information

available at the August Meeting and they expect between 130-150 vehicles to participate.

NEW BUSINESS:

The Club Executive Officers are recommending the following:

Any Club member that wins a Best of Cruise In at our Friday Cruise Ins will not be eligible again until the

next season unless they win with a different ride. They will display a placard informing attendees that they are not

competing in the show, for Best of Show, although they will be eligible for runner up if they choose to enter.

At this announcement a lively discussion ensued. One remark that came out of the talks was that we might

want to consider a point system for Club rides with a special commendation at the end of the year for the ride with the

most points gathered during the course of the year. Members also wanted it understood that this is supposed to be fun

and that the Classics need not be show cars, but cars in process, in use, enjoyed.

Also concern was voiced about the fact that we are a Classic Car and Truck Club founded on the premise that

a classic must be at least 20 years old, and are we ‘diluting’ our Club premise by allowing new vehicles to display and

win. Concern was voiced to limit the number of newer rides that can be displayed to win. Fran said that the executive

board would discuss these concerns and report back to the Club at the August meeting.

Fran brought up the idea of forming a Cruise In Team that will work at our first of every month events. This will be a

group of volunteers responsible for various jobs like registering rides, distributing ballots. He is looking for different

members for each event. Also he wants the members to consider replacing the present procedure of placing numbers

on the rides at the Cruise In, with a registration form. Fran is also looking for a list of ride requirements to make a ride

eligible for a plaque at the event.

Fran announced the 1^st ever name tag drawing for those who wore their tags, Jim Colwell won and Tom Lewis was

given a special prize for his volunteering his 1957 Chevy for weddings with proceeds benefiting our Christmas Meals

on Classic Wheels.

Possible organized Cruise Out location was suggested by Barry Watkins as a trip to

Sweetwater Tree Farm in Aiken, home of former members Scott Urban & Sandy Wohlers.

This will be considered at a later date as the trip is 4+ hours round trip.

The next meeting will be held at Rosie O’Grady’s August 3rd.

The August 6^th Cruise In plaques will be sponsored by Rockit Entertainment.

Meeting was adjourned at 8:07p.m..

Going over recent Council meeting notes, Randy spoke on the Council’s desire to have all clubs advertise the charities they sponsor

on their flyers so that the general public will be aware. Also the Council wants any judging criteria along with other pertinent information

available on flyers to make the events easier to understand for any interested parties who want to participate.

Under Old Business

Because there were only 9 responses to the BBQ out of town June meeting, it was decided to forgo the event this year and look to next

year for the Edwins BBQ event.

Fran passed out copies of the membership web survey which had 30 responses. The results will be discussed at the June meeting. Also the

By-law changes have been posted on our Club website.

The May 29^th wedding party will enjoy Tom Lewis’ 1957 Classic Chevy convertible driven by Fred Krumm. The Club will get a minimum of

$350 from this event, and it is hoped that future use of our classics will bring in at least that amount or more depending upon the situation.

Upon receipt of the details he will forward them to Tom and Fred.

Rick Brown updated members on the September Home and Car Show event. He will be walking the area to configure the setup. He said

mention of the show will be made on at least 12 area websites and that it is the only show of significance in the area that weekend.

Under New Business

that all members whose rides are not on the website get pictures and description to him. Also he will be taking pictures of member’s rides at

up coming events for the Club website.

Also, the car club email list will be setup as a network so that only one email address will be required to send info to the Club members. More

particulars on this will come later.

for their Christmas Meals on Classic Wheels will be requested.

Our Wounded Warriors sponsorship is also a part of whatever events we hold and make a profit from. Another

suggestion arose that we consider sponsoring a Christmas Tree for the Festival Of Trees Event in December that

cars as ornaments. Further discussion will be at a later date.

Woodman for helping the team test drive over at Robling Road. On Sunday, February 7^th the

12 rides and 15 members cruised over to Callahan’s on HHI for an excellent lunch. Many thanks to

Vic Neely for the world class onion rings and hamburgers (our R&R Racing Team got a chance to

practice up on Vic’s Racing Game!). President Forcione expressed sincere thanks, on behalf of

the Club, to Mike and Angie Keyserling for hosting this month’s meeting and cooking the oysters!

Old Business: President Forcione introduced the other officers of the Club: Rick Brown,

Vice President and Jim Colwell, Treasurer. He noted we still did not have a secretary. Betsi

Hilton volunteered to be Secretary, to be supported by two Assistant Secretaries—Donna

Berger and Jane Gallagher. The election of these members was voted by acclamation.

Mike Keyserling reported that he had met with the Old Village Association (Port Royal) and that

the traditional Oktoberfest where the Club had held its annual Car Show, is not likely to be held

this year.

New Business: The Walterboro Cruisers have indicated that they will attend our regular monthly

Cruise-In on March 5 at the Grayco Hardware site on Lady’s Island. The Executive Committee

urged members to come out and support this participation from Walterboro. Jim Colwell noted

that the Walterboro Cruisers meet regularly on the 3^rd Saturday each month in Walterboro.

He also pointed out that the Walterboro Cutouts regularly meet the last Thursday each month

up there.

President Forcione noted that on Saturday, March 20 the Dataw Island Relay for Life team will be

holding a tag sale and car display in the Grayco Home Center parking lot as a fundraiser for finding

a cure for cancer. He encouraged members to support this event. Complementary hotdogs, soda

and water will be provided to all members and family that bring a ride for the display. He will be

circulating a flyer to members with more information. He proposed and the members present

voted to contribute $100 to Relay for Life project.

Jack Gallagher and Rick Brown reported that the Butler dealership would like to sponsor a car

display with active CCTCB participation in March. The display would be at its used car lot at

Boundary & Hwy 170. It was agreed at the meeting that Saturday, March 27 would be an

acceptable date. More information will be provided to members via email and the website.

Change to By-laws: The Executive Committee recommends that the Club change its By-laws , to

be voted upon at its March 2010 meeting, as follows:

Article V, Section 5.2: Nominations for office shall take place in January/February of the new

calendar year, with solicitation of volunteers for all positions to be sought first. Term of office

shall be for one year or as mutually agreed upon by outgoing and incoming officers. PROPOSED

CHANGE- Term of office shall be one year for Vice President who will succeed the President the

following year. Two years for the Secretary and Treasurer, or as mutually agreed upon by

outgoing and incoming officers.

President Forcione noted that the Executive Committee will be sending a survey to all members

soon dealing with a number of matters affecting the Club, its activities, programs and

communications. The purpose will be to determine what our membership would like to see

added to, or discontinued from, our activities and why out of approximately 100 dues paying

members, only some 30 or so actively participate in events.

Because the Oktoberfest is up in the air, the Executive Committee proposed that we make the

forthcoming Beaufort Home and Car Show, sponsored by the Home Builders Association, our

primary show and fundraiser for the year. The Executive Committee also recommended that

if the Oktoberfest actually were to be scheduled that the Club could participate as a display

event. Rick Brown reported that the Show would take place on Saturday, September 25^th, with

a $20 entry fee to include a meal and T-shirt. Many trophy categories with non-CCTCB judges;

CCTCB rides would be in iits own corral. Given the depth of sponsorship this Show has the

prospects of becoming a major event in the state. Proceeds raised would benefit the Club’s Meals

on Classic Wheels project at Christmas time as well as the Wounded Warriors Fund. Rick

indicated that virtually all of the support work, advertising and promotion would be funded by

the HBA. The members present voted to make this the Club’s major fundraising event and to

support it fully.

Members present voted to support an entry for the upcoming Pine Box Derby race, with a

contribution of $50. Further details to be obtained from Rich Davis.
