March, 2010
Our last meeting was made special with decorations and cake to
celebrate Valentine’s Day. A special
thanks to Dora and Irene for bringing and serving the delicious cake, and to Roberta for
decorating the tables at the Clubvette meeting on Feburary 13th. Dora also took on the challenge of creating
name tags for every member that was at the meeting with the goal in mind of reusing them
so we can get to know one another better.
The Bill Black auto show will be held on May 16th and
Wayne Stewart has accepted the responsibility as chairman for that event. Wayne has a list of Clubvette members who offered
to help. If you signed your name to that list
please make yourself available to Wayne. Don’t
wait for him to call you. Ask what you can do
to help him get the job done.
The Christmas party and its committee consists of Dora, Shelley,
Gloria, Irene, Marsha and Wayne Stewart as the Christmas party DJ.
I spoke with Bryan who is the manager of the Moose Café about the
problems we incurred with the service at the Clubvette Feb. 13th meeting. I made some suggestions that would improve the
overall service. He wants our business and
will do what is necessary to improve conditions. See
you at the next meeting.
Articles for next month’s newsletter should be submitted by March 22.

Clubvette Belt
Buckles
At the February meeting I brought up the subject of purchasing custom belt buckles for the club. Pictured below is the proposed artwork for the Clubvette buckle.
The buckle is
approximately 3-5/8” wide by 2-5/8” high, cast from solid brass, then it is
nickel plated, the areas shown in gold are plated in 24k gold. The colored parts (flags) are then covered with an
epoxy, sealed and baked. I have received
emails from the presidents of the Queen City Corvette Club (Charlotte) and the Santa
Barbara Corvette Club and they both confirmed that the quality of these buckles is
excellent. Below are color pictures of the Queen City and Santa Barbara buckles.
The company I am talking to about the
buckles is Ceative Castings, Inc. (www.creativebuckles.com)
located in Denison, Texas. All work is done
in the USA.
For a minimum order of 10 buckles the
price is $56.95 each. For an order of 20
buckles the price is $42.95 each. If you are
interested in purchasing a buckle, let me know by email (mail@clubvette.org)
or at the next meeting.
