Christmas Party

Have you made plans to join us for our annual Christmas Party? It's coming up fast, Sunday December 8!
 
Yes, it is that time of year for members to gather together and enjoy fellowship at a local restaurant. We always have a good time and some fun along with our meal.

Members donate items such as Diabetic Socks (size XL, white, no tube socks) and batteries, sizes AAA, C & D, for our local Veterans who are always happy to see us. It can be a lonely time of year for several Veterans, especially those without family.

A popular fund raiser for members is to bring unwrapped gift items for the Auction Fund Raiser. All proceeds are donated to a local charity with a long list of families in need.

As always, monetary donations are always accepted and appreciated.

We also plan our calendar for the following year and elect officers to serve on the board. 

Events for the year include: ROMEO outings, Garage Gatherings, Dust Off Tour, Spring Tour, Daily Tours, and Ice Cream Runs! Not to mention the impromptu fun tours that takes just a phone call or two!

We hope you will join us! If you need  a reservation form or registration form, please email wmhcca@gmail.com.

Dust Off Tour

Take that car cover off, unplug your battery charger, fill up the radiator and top off the gas tank. It’s time to shake the cobwebs off for our annual Spring Dust Off Tour! 

 

The best part about this Dust Off Tour is the camaraderie amongst friends.

Come out and join us for the day as we take our first tour of the season Saturday, May 18.

We will be driving north and then east. We will meet in the parking lot near McDonald's Express, 402 Ada Dr. SE Ada, MI 49301 no later than 9am. There is ample trailer parking for everyone.

 

We will caravan along a scenic path to an unusual place with lawn ornaments and then on to a little antique shop as we drive over to Jones Farm Mkt, 7965 Potters Rd., Saranac, for their annual Appreciation Day and show off our favorite wheels.  We will join other cars, tractors, and trucks in the car corral.

 There will be plenty of food, popcorn, and live music to entertain us. Not to mention the flea market and great specials from Jones Farm Market. You may want to pack a cooler to take home your cheese & meat. 

This is one event that many have asked the Jones’ if they would bring back the cars – all types of cars! 

 

Everyone is welcome, so pack up the family and invite your friends & neighbors to drive their wheels and help make this a memorable event while we educate the public about our cars, trucks, motorcycles, etc. 

So - what are you driving and who are you bringing? 

Please respond below by

March ROMEO Treasures

Our March ROMEO was another nice day meaning it wasn't snowing, just a light drizzle. The light rain did not deter several from gathering at 84th Street Pub & Grille. 

We had a few surprises like this old coil box found in a house. None of us knew what type of car it was off and look forward to someone giving us help identifying it.

Another surprise was a model of a C Cab Paddy Wagon found by Jan at a local Goodwill for just a few $$. Of course Jan thought of Gary immediately and presented the model to Gary. 

Jan finds all kinds of treasures that many of us like. Just a few months ago it was cargo pants he picked up with lots of pockets, perfect for touring! And guess who has this great license plate? Yup, Jan. 

So - what are you working on? Tell us - we want to hear about it and see it!
