It is getting very close to Christmas and New Years Day and The end of 2020. I am hoping that you are all well and still able to keep some good humor with the strange year we went through. I think the future is looking better and with a little luck we can enjoy the thing that we all have in common , Vintage car racing. Last season sure had its ups and downs and the uncertainty was hard to suffer through. Even with the problems we still got in a fairly good year. I am pleased that so many members made the effort to support us when we got the chance to to put on our show. There were a lot of track promoters that went to a great deal of effort to comply with the health departments and keep the racers and fans happy.
I hope that you all are ready for Christmas. This year we are dialing back our normal traveling plans for the holidays.We will be staying home but celebrating the real meaning of Christmas and that is HOPE for the future. Hope for all mankind is what we need at this time..My heart and prayers go out to all that are suffering at this time..Let us all pray that the pandemic will end soon and our lives return to normal. .It does appear our prayers are being answered with the vaccine being made available,there is hope for an end to all of this suffering.
We will soon start to look at scheduling events for the 2021 season. It is a lot of work trying to get this completed. Fortunately, there are members that help with the contacting various tracks and working out dates. We will be looking at the tracks that we have a long standing history with as well as any new places that will invite us to display our traveling museum of vintage racing cars. Keeping the history of oval track racing alive and on display is the key to our success. I have had inquires from interested people looking to join our group and that is is an encouraging .We will honor the membership Dues paid for the 2020 season for the 2021 season. I will put out a membership list so you can check to see if you are a member in good standing for the 2021 season. Please review it and if there is a mistake get back to me.
So it is with hope in my heart that I wish you all a very VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a BLESSED AND HAPPY NEW YEAR Sincerely Jim McDermott
