President's Message
August 2010

Hello to All! As I write this message, I am still in AWE over the KISS concert that Eileen treated me to. I had mentioned to her how I should probably go to this concert, even though I am not particularly a KISS fan and really don’t listen to this type of music, and can not relate to their make-up very well—I thought it would be history in the making for Minot and the new grand stand, so she surprised me with a ticket—seat (which I never saw) and OMG, I could not believe how much I enjoyed the show. It had the PUNCH that sent it over the top as the best and most fantastic concert I have ever been to. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend them to anybody. It had everything: pyrotechnics, power galore, volume, showmanship, dedication to their profession and what else can I say?!

They donated $14,082 to the Wounded Warriors cause and what a nice gesture that was! Anyway, as you can tell, I was impressed. Its 12 hours later, and my ears are still ‘ringing’! WOW!! The issue with not going out of the grand stand area once you are in is not a big deal at all. Once you are in the grand stand area, you cannot return. I found that to be fine. So on the Wednesday night concert, the rules that have been given us, are/should be/were --OK. If you did not go because of that, you missed out. The Front Fenders were great!! Just around the corner for us is the “Super Run” in Brandon. The Canadian National meet for Western Canada is a huge event. I’ll report next month on how it was.

I’d like to see some more input from you, the members, in this newsletter. It’s yours and it should have more of the members input. Please keep that in mind.

The Labor Day event, Motor Magic and then two weeks later, the Season Finale, are swiftly approaching and will turn out to be great events. Please be ready to jump in and help out with something at either of these. The theme of the center room for the Motor Magic Show is “Classics of the 60’s” So if you have one or know someone who has one, invite them or plan on showing yours off!

All for now. Be sure and check out the calendar for events and remember the hotline of 852-5277 (KARS) for club updates! George
