Greetings! Do you realize, at this writing, we are 46 days away from our show? That's less than two months. Do you realize it takes a lot of dedicated enthusiastic members to have a successful show? Do you realize we have only two general meetings prior to the show? I've seen a lot of enthusiastic members at previous meetings, shows, cruises and events! Will I see these same members contact Roger Bymun to volunteer?! Members who will not assume the same people will do it again?! I hope not!! If we all pitch in even a little bit... the results and PAYOFF will be huge for everyone. Roger can be reached at [email protected] and 918-691-1508. Changing gears now. A fine job to Treasurer Sandy Bradford on her due diligence in the work accomplished in getting our tax-status reinstated. In alignment with our By-Laws, I’m officially informing membership of specific pro-posed changes to Article VII. These proposed changes are to assist the club with retaining and maintaining our tax-exempt status with the IRS. The proposed chang-es can be found in red below. The changes will be voted for approval by the gen-eral membership at the September meeting.

Article VII - Officers

E. The Treasurer shall handle all moneys collected and disbursed by G.C.C.M., which will be deposited in the bank within five (5) business days under the name of G.C.C.M. The Governing Board shall approve the bank. The signature on the checks and withdrawals will be of the Treasurer, President, or Vice-President. The Treasurer will submit a report monthly of all financial transactions. The treasurer will also be required to file the form 990N with the IRS before April 1st each year to maintain the club’s Non-Profit status. F. When the new Treasurer takes office, the out-going Treasurer shall prepare, and the in-coming Treasurer shall accept, a complete and accurate statement of financial conditions of the Club, which shall be open for inspection to all members. The outgoing treasurer will train the new treasurer on all treasurers’ duties. Mustangs Rule!! John Hemby

CAR SHOW AND BRANSON BELLE AUGUST 14th & 15th

Those of you going to the Springfield Car show August 14th and 15th may be interested in another little adventure Ron Watkins and I have in the making. In 2013 a few of our members attended the Branson Belle show and dinner cruise on Table Rock Lake for less than the cost of most Branson music shows. I contacted our friend Camron Hanson sales representative who remembered our group from 2013. After a few friendly negotiations we agreed on $48.36 (tax included) per person. After checking several motel rates I contacted Wes Stoner sales manager for Best Western Inns and Suites. Again after friendly negoti-ations we came up with his manager special of $66.00 regular rate is $119.00. This price is per night and includes a full hot breakfast buffet next door at Montana Mikes Steak House. We will be staying Best Western Center Pointe Inn and Suite located between the Titanic and Montana Mikes on the 76th strip. I have 20 rooms blocked for Friday the 14th and Saturday 15th. If you plan on going to the car show check with Ron for reservations in Springfield for Friday night the 14th. For the dinner cruise and Best Western Friday or Saturday night e-mail or call Cindy or I. For the Branson Cruise plans are for a group to go up on Friday and another Saturday morning both times meeting at QT located at I-44 and 161st. Time leaving will be announced later. Our members who attend the car show will meet up with the Branson group after the show. Do some shopping, etc. and then at 8:00pm a great 3 course dinner and top rate stage show while floating (I hope) on beautiful Table Rock Lake. The dinner menu will consist of Ice Berg Romine Salad, Sweet onion dressing topped with homemade croutons, hot butter dinner rolls, slow simmered roast beef, honey glazed chicken, garlic potatoes, sugar snap peas with julienne carrots, and for dessert a brittle lemon- ber-ry torte dripped with caramel. This three course dinner elsewhere for two would cost more than the din-ner and show on the Branson Belle. We need to be at the Branson Belle by 6:00pm. Each one will pick up their ticket at the ticket office at that time. Best for last. One of our group will receive a free dinner and show so with all of this and spending a week-end with our GCCM Family what other decision is there except come along. You will be glad you did and so will Ron and I. Captain Earl & First and Only Mate Cindy

Hey, you round-up drivers of all ages. . .as you drive those ponies into Jenks, please remem-

ber to swing by the Toy Corral and enter your prized Mustang toys or Mustang related

items in this year’s show. Registration will be from 9 to 12 the day of the show. So, you all

Jimmy & Dena Cook,

Toy Wranglers

FOR SALE - 2008 Roush P-51a #27 of 151 - $29,995 This car has a forged engine and lots of horsepower. Mileage: 19,750. It is still pretty much stock. We have added graphics to hood and rear deck plus an awesome airbrushed radiator cov-er and fuse box cover. The wheels are Roush wheels that have been dipped and we also dipped the spoiler on the back. We are the original owners and it has been garage kept and well main-tained. Selling it because wife (her car) has retired and we rarely drive it as we spend a lot of time at the track with my Boss 302. Hate seeing it sit in the garage when it was built to drive...and it drives like a dream. Contact Jerry Bergeron if you are seriously interested in this amazing car. [email protected] or 918.605.1760

Last year, the Granado’s and the Hollis’s went to Sturgis Mustang Rally and came back all revved

up to go again this year. Therefore, Linda Hollis and I, Jerry Bush, are making all the plans to

get as many from this area to go with us for the 2015 Rally, Sept. 1-6. This is a big event, so

NOW is the time to get reservations in Sturgis and get signed up. You will also need reservations

in Mitchell, SD, which is our one evening stop on Sept. 1. We are currently working on the de-

tails. Our Facebook page has information about motels and the Sturgis Rally web site has all the

information about registration and events.

http://www.sturgismustangrally.com/ is the web site for the Rally and

https://www.facebook.com/events/584395991705748/ is our Facebook page.

Because some Ponies will be leaving Sept. 1 from Joplin and maybe some leaving from Tulsa,

the thought at the present time, is to meet up in Kansas City. Please consider this show for one

of your big trips of the year. There are lots of sights to see, such as Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse

Monument, Drive to Deadwood, events and racing at the Thunderdome, Poker run through the

Black Hills of SD., the car show, a Banquet Dinner, and much more.

Check out the web sites or contact Jerry Bush or Linda Hollis.
