Sounds like you had a nice turnout.  Really sorry that I was not able to be there but I had mechanical failure on my tow vehicle in Myrtle Beach.  Hopefully I can make it next year.

 

Congratulations for all of those that won awards :)

Steve Myrtle Beach is a long ways off from Hiwassee. I know I have been to both but not in the same year

Yes, I know.  I have a very good friend who lives in Myrtle Beach that I was planning to take to the meet with me so I went there first to pick him up.  This friend and I grew up together and he and I owned the same Monte Carlo while in high school...we traded the car back and forth for about four years. 

 

Anyway, despite not being geographically close, he and I have remained very close over the years.  Over the last couple of years my friend has developed a blood disease and is just generally in bad health.  I knew he would enjoy this meet as much as me so I wanted to take him with me. 

 

The plan was to drive down to his place Tuesday, hang out with him and his wife for a couple days then drive on down to Hiawassee Thursday.  Unfortunately, as I said, I had some trouble with my truck.  It was nothing serious but I had to order a part to fix it and I did not get it until Friday afternoon so I was unable to make the second part of the trip.

Yes, people who attended the meet should be posting them here too so we can all share in the experience. :) I hunted some EM photos down on FB and posted on our FB page since none of the EM attendees have that access to do so. I can certainly do it here on the message board if needed but usually the EM attendees do it.

 

Just simply saying they're on FB does not help the people that don't do FB or are not FB friends with the person who posted them. This results in only a few being able to see photos which is not inclusive of all the people in the club here in the message board.

It seems this post has been hijacked so to that I say!!!!

CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!!!!

 

I think Jared said his mom or grandmother took a lot of good pictures of the awards.  I know in the posted agenda Jared posted a time the members pictures would be taken with their cars so I suspect he has those pictures.  It is normal to get pictures of all of the members with and without their cars, not only so the pictures can be placed on the award plaques but also so they can be posted here.  Yes, Jared posted many pictures on fb so I suspect he will be posting them here very soon.

 

After All, all of us know here at the First Generation Monte Carlo Club "No Pictures Here Means It Didn't Happen", Right????

Why did big JIm get the hard luck award???  inquiring minds want to know

Yes, nobody wants that award but when someone gets that award EVERYONE wants to know how they earned it.

Since no one really had any hard luck coming to the show we awarded it to Jim Crockett,because of his last five years of hardship with his Monte. Jim can fill you in. He really got torched with that car by a "bodyman"

Apologize for not loading those pictures as soon as some of y'all would have liked but I work for myself and honestly I had forgotten all about the eastern meet and loading pictures once I returned to my customer cars this week.. all of our past officers, meet directors present, and future are all volunteer we have full-time jobs run our own businesses, or even have families. Yes a lot of the pictures were on my Facebook profile first but that is simply because I loaded them as I took them while I was at the Eastern Meet, all of the pictures at the banquet of members recieving awards and me handing them out...and the pictures of members with their cars were done with my mom's digital camera. I told her to load them to Facebook first so then I downloaded them to my phone so I could load them on this website as I had time I remembered once I logged in tonight and seen these post.
