President’s Message – April 2018

Spring has finally arrived! After a warm and beautiful February, we were shocked back into reality by a wintry March. But as eagerly anticipated, top down weather lies just ahead. March was another busy month for the CFMC. In addition to our monthly gathering at Bitty and Beaus, on March 17 we had 14 members participate in a visit to the Carolina Farm Days Festival at Lake Waccamaw and lunch. Thanks to Trudy and John Williamson for hosting this fun activity.
On March 24, several CFMC members participated in an un-official, impromptu visit to the Blue, Brew and BBQ Bluegrass Festival at the Duplin County Events Center in Kenansville, NC. We enjoyed a great day of bluegrass music, barbeque, and local winery and brewery products.
On April 21, we will have our first 2018 quarterly business meeting at the Brunswick Nature Park South of Leland, NC

We have many other great activities planned for the remainder of 2018 including the CFMC’s participation in the British Motor Club of the Cape Fear “Brits at the Battleship” car show on May 5. Check the club calendar and activities section of the Ragtop Tales for more details.

Fun, friendship and fellowship are the hallmarks of the CFMC. These are accomplished through the commitment of all of our members by hosting, supporting and participating in club activities.

I truly appreciate the work that our members contribute to make our club successful. Let’s continue the momentum we have and make 2018, our 25th year, one of the best and most enjoyable ever!

Enjoying our Miatas on a beautiful day allows our worries and cares to float away! Zoom-zoom!

We started October off with a fun trip to the Highland Games in Laurinburg and…
