PRESIDENTS MESSAGE MAY 2016
Hello chapter members, clock lovers and
friends. I hope this message finds you in good spirits and health. Remember
there is no meeting this month.
Again I would like to thank all those
members from our chapter for all the help with the Vista Gas and Steam Engine
Museum clock display.
By the time you read this message the
clocks will have arrived and will be in the process of being set up for
display. For me, this is very exciting as it is the culmination of all the long
and hard work setting up the various display areas for the clocks.
The clocks in and the museum are not part
of our chapter in the NAWCC. However, we
are directly associated with the Vista Clock and Watch Museum due to our
working association with the museum. I
believe our association with the Vista gas and steam engine museum will only
enhance our Chapters viability and strength. This is an opportunity that almost no other
chapter has in the entire United States. We need to help the Museum so as to be
able to take advantage of all the opportunity’s it affords US. This is why I am asking our Chapter members to
help at the Museum. So this is where
this is all going..... Short term, we need help in the Delmar fair booth. Long-term, we will also need docents when the
clock and watch museum is open. So when you are called upon to help....please
do so!
PLEASE JOIN ME JUNE 18 th @ 10:30 am FOR
THE CLOCK AND WATCH MUSEUM GRAND OPENING
I hope to see you all of you there, it should be fun and exciting
