St. Patrick’s Day was the theme for the March dinner held at Famous Murphys.  President Patti Wilder welcomed everyone.  Gary Dyer was the informal MC,  telling a few jokes, acknowledging members’ birthdays, and encouraging individuals to share stories of how their families emigrated to America.

Treasurer Dave Minedew reported that there is $6,647.44 in the general fund, and $1,585.16 in the Village Green account.  Payment to JCNA for national membership is yet to be made.

Social Directors Kathy and Mike Glass arranged for a silent auction of Jag related items, which was very successful.  A total of $100 was made for the club.

Future dinners and events include an April 22 dinner pizza party, and the Shasta Dinner train trip on April 29-30.

Harry Keast has forwarded a completed roster to JCNA.  The club lost a few members and gained a few, so the total number is the same as last year.  He distributed several badges for new members.

Erick Landau, of Reno Auto Works was the guest speaker.  He is the co-founder of a VW and Audi car group, "The Werks Group - Reno Auto Werks" and wants to reach out to and work with other European car groups in the future.  Check out Erick's web page at http://raw.rowusa.org/.
