Our traditional picnic was held on a sunny, hot, and steamy Sunday with over 120 people finding their way to the pavilion at Matheson Hammock, arriving in a variety of makes, models and years of antique cars. There were even a few newly purchased additions.  This kept everyone busy while the small crew of dedicated chefs prepared the food. 

     Our chefs this year were to be all past presidents, so Maurice Hawa, Harry Goebel and Paul Cotner stepped up to cook, along with Tomas Hernandez who hopefully will one day be a future past president.  Ira Shapiro, with the help of Pat and Nan Carnevale, supplied the cooks with ample helpings of hot dogs, hamburgers and chicken. These were served with a variety of prize-winning side dishes and desserts brought by the members. 

     The winner for Best Side Dish was Jean Hawa with a delicious corn pudding and the winner for the Best Dessert was Carman Tomazin with a German Chocolate Cheesecake.  Both winners received a $50.00 gift certificate from Macys.

     Thanks to everyone who lent a hand, especially to the cooking crew, the judges and those who help set up. Additionally thank you to all the club members for providing the side dishes and desserts, and the board members for making it yet another memorable picnic.

I did my best with the years, makes and models of cars, so if you have corrections or additions I would appreciate you sending them along.  bsquier47@bellsouth.net .  Thanks.
