There isn’t much that can be said about this event that hasn’t already been said. The weather was spectacular considering 24 hours earlier it was snowing. The fire was almost smokeless and a pleasure to watch. The selection of firearms available for our shooting pleasure was more than adequate and the food was not only plentiful but delicious. The cabin in the woods was again the perfect place for us to gather and enjoy the great outdoors with all of…
Once again, Happy New Year to everyone. I would like to thank everyone for allowing me to be the President of our great club for another year. Thank you. There are some great things planned for this year. The tours are starting to be planned. The fire truck has been taken apart for painting. This is a big project for the club to undertake. Please lend a hand on reassembly when the parts start coming back from the youth of…
A great time was had by all who participated in the Denville Holiday parade on Saturday, Nov. 30th. Ten members came out for lunch that was put together by Tina with the help of some of the other ladies who brought delicious salads and of course Nicky brought dessert. Matt Petitjean and Dave Andreasen were followed all the way from Florham Park to my house by a young man in his own car. Upon their arrival at my house he…
Tis’ the season for the installation banquet/holiday party. It was a wonderful event at Perona Farms. The food was delicious and the company couldn’t have been any better. We swore in the existing officers for a second term. Thanks to everyone who has helped this past year. We had some fun with a gift exchange. We also had a successful fundraiser to help with the restoration of the firetruck.
Mother nature can be very deceiving at times. One day before our food drive, she dropped 9” of snow in the Sussex County area. Twenty miles south from my home, there was not a trace of snow. Although the rain and snow was much needed, it did not stop the 14 members from coming out and supporting our cause of donating food to the Wayne Interfaith Food Pantry. We also had members that did not come but still donated food.…
Wishing everyone a very happy and healthy Holiday Season and for the upcoming year too. With the new year approaching, it is time to remember all the good times we have had together. Some members are with us and some are with us in spirit, but I am very grateful for everyone. We all should treasure the time that we have together. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed this year for making our club a great one.…
The end of the touring season is upon us. But there is still time to drive your Model A. As the holidays approach us soon, try to remember how lucky you are and remember there are many people in need. “Stuff the Bus” is our annual club food drive so join us for a nice day out and make a difference for those in need. Our club’s tricky tray is going to be here before you know it. Gather up…
It is with a heartfelt thank you to the Wayne PAL for letting us have our Model A meetings in their facility. Our club wanted to show our thanks and gratitude by making a donation to their giving tree. The giving tree is for children who need some support for the holiday season. Evelyn and I had the pleasure to shop for these children for our club. The items that were in need for these children were clothes and shoes.…
November2024 What a great time of the year. Crisp mornings and great touring weather are here, not to mention the Hershey fall meet also. It is great to see we have members that are vendors at the flea market. I ran into about 13 members of our club while at the Hershey fall meet in the flea market fields, well, not in the fields, but on the pavement. Do you remember all the mud? If you have never been to…
October 2024 Hello All! We are coming up on the best time of year. Soon the weather will be cooler and that means time to tour in our cars. I would like to say thank you to Dick Smith for hosting the Gymkhana. This year was my first one and I had a blast. If you missed it, plan to be there next year. You won’t be disappointed. There are a lot of fun upcoming events in our club remaining…

August 2024 Drive your car! Drive your car! How many times have you heard that phrase? We have several members in our club that drive their Model A’s often. The miles for the mileage program were tallied and some of our members were recognized for driving their cars. There were awards given out for a total of over ninety thousand miles. One member, not in the mileage program, has seventy five thousand miles on one engine. Congratulations to all who…
July 2024 The members of the club are ready for the sum-mer touring season, so let’s get out there and drive our cars. Let’s all get involved and come out and see just how much fun you can have on our tours. We are trying something different for a change. Come out on a Wednesday night, for the “Blue Arrow Tour”, to check out some dif-ferent makes and models of cars on display. If you haven’t been there, give it…
June 2024 Touring season is here. All our cars should be ready to drive and display for others to see. Speaking of displaying, if you missed the visit to Morris County Vo-Tech for our “May Model A Youth Month” activ-ity, you missed a good time. We displayed our cars for the students and they were very interested in all different areas of the cars. It was great to see that there is still an interest in older cars. So, if…
May 2024 Wow! What an exciting beginning to April, an earthquake and an eclipse. You never know what Mother Nature will throw our way. The club also has an exciting month in store for the members this April too. The club is in ready mode for all the tours we have scheduled. We will have our second garage clinic, a tour to Trexlertown, Knuth Farms, a mystery tour, and a visit to the Boonton Firemen’s Home. All good stuff. For…
April 2024 The club was busy last month with the cabin fever tour being split up into three events. First we visited the Sansone’s Tree Farm. Tom and Chris were busy making maple syrup. Tom was cooking the sap as he collected it from the trees. He showed us all about how to make maple syrup and a tour of the farm. It is a true labor of love for the time it takes, but it sure does taste good.…
Well, here we are in the worst part of winter. Don’t let the cold temperatures and dreary weather keep you on the couch, be-cause the touring season is not too far away. I am sure there is something you can do on your Model A. For instance, I am working on getting some distributors and water pumps rebuilt. This is something you can do wherever it is warm. If you are not sure how to rebuild or have any questions…
To all of our members and families, I would like to wish everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year. 2023 ended in a very special way with our annual holiday party. It was very nice to see everyone that came out to bring in the holiday season and the swearing in of the new officers. Thank you, Richard Smith, for all that you did for the club last year. 2024 started out with an idea to send an e-mail to…
