PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE - MARCH 2010
Well, spring is right around the corner, and our cars will be coming out of winter storage. We
expect to have an exciting 2008 season with many quality club shows and events. We are in the
process of setting up our Club's Spring Cadillac Car Show. It should take place at the end of
April.
On Sunday, February 21th, The Manhattan Chinatown New Year's Parade took place. Eight of
our club's convertible cars were scheduled to attend, but unfortunately one of Joel Adelstein's
1940 Cadillac Convertibles, the blue one broke down on the Long Island Expressway in Queens.
Club cars in attendance were Joel Adelstein's 1940 maroon Cadillac 4-door convertible,Mike
Conforti's 1961 convertible, Jimmy Muldoon's 1966 Deville, Bob Fuller's 1968 Deville, Frank
Parise's 1968 Deville, Joe Karczewski's 1976 Eldorado conv; and my 1993 Allante. The parade
had a late start due to N.Y.C. Mayor Blumberg arriving late.Our club cars again transported
parade organizers and sponsors. The sun shines every year during this annual parade. All in
attendance had an enjoyable day.
Also on February 21th, our Club's Activity Chairmen Ken Kanner and Artie Koestner attended
the Annual Council Meeting which is attended by most Long Island and City car clubs. During
this meeting, car clubs announce when their car show and events will take place. With this
knowledge, our club can now plan our shows so that there is no conflict with other car club
shows on the same day as ours.
The Annual Atlantic City Classic Car Show & Auction took place on February 26,27 & 28th at
the Atlantic City Convention Center. Some of our club members that attended were Bob Fuller,
Bill & Liz Estes, Joe Marascuillo & Grace, Brian Rapaport, Ken & Sandi Kanner, Matt & Nina
D'Agostino and Maria & myself. Over 1,000 cars were displayed and many were sold at
moderate prices.
To my surprise, Steve Krieger, our club's Membership Secretary has informed me that some
club members still have not paid their 2010 Membership dues. If you are one of those unpaid
members, please renew immediately. If you have any questions pertaining to you dues, please
contact Steve at doctork11@oiptonline.net or at (516) 249-0681. To remain a member in our
club, you must also maintain your membership with the National Cadillac & LaSalle Club (CLC)
which bills you directly after one year of membership.
