hold the next meeting on September 8, 2010. A motion was put forth
by Paul Cassel on this and seconded by Andy Marsh. A vote was held
and the motion was carried. After consulting with Scott Forbes, it
was decided that the next meeting would be held at Hitman Hot Rods
with a tour of his 7000sq ft shop.
Tim Sykes confirmed that he has talked to the
owner of Southworks mall, Ms. Laura Harding, and that our meetings
could be held at the mall on Thursdays or Fridays up until 9:00pm at
night. Larry Ray suggested that we should try “The Black Badger” in
the meeting room upstairs and then make a decision.

club members meeting at a common place and traveling together to
cruise nights and car shows and then parking all at one spot at the
venue – No decision was made.
A discussion on the membership dues was
presented by Paul Cassel and addressed by all members with a
proposed budget presented by Larry Ray and a balance sheet by Andy

discussed further at the next meeting now that the dues are
justified. Andy Marsh recommended $100.00 a year should be set aside
for memorial gifts and expenditures.
A motion by Paul Cassel to continue with the
Strokers calendar being produced by Bob Drew and the costs to be

his template to Paul Cassel.

TREASURER’S REPORT
Andy Marsh reported we had $2,066.71 in the Bank and $14.00 in petty

plaques.
Three Items were on the agenda
1) What do we want to
do as a club?
2) Do the club members
desire to hold another BBQ?
3) Do the members
desire to open the club membership to others.
CLUB EVENTS
On the question of What DO We Want to do as a Club…. Warren Grimm
suggested the possibility of a Bus tour and offered 3 suggested
destinations and costs.
1)
Detroit for the Woodward Dream Cruise
in August. Based on 3 different coach sizes ranging
from 32 to 57 passengers, the cost per head for the bus only ranged from
about $110 – 85
2) Louisville KY for
the NSRA Street Rod Nationals again based on bus sizes prices ranged from about $150 – 120 per
head
3) Carlisle PA for the
Spring or Fall Carlisle Automotive Fleamarket and car show/sale.
Costs were estimated to be the same as the Detroit trip.
The above does not include meals, lodging or
bridge/highway tolls.
Warren said he felt by soliciting participation from
other area clubs. A brief discussion followed however no motion was
tabled
ANOTHER CLUB BBQ
On the 2nd agenda item regarding holding
another summer gathering BBQ there were two general suggestions. 1) The
Strokers hold a Stroker event opening attendance to other car club
members and former members. 2) Strokers hold the first of a proposed
annual BBQ event inviting other clubs from the area to host subsequent
annual events.
Little support was offered for the 2nd
suggestion so a motion was tabled by Harold Dale
MOTION by Harold Dale
Moved by Harold that the Galt Strokers hots an event
in 2006 held at a local Cambridge facility and tickets will be limited
to the size of that facility.
The motion was seconded by Bob Dykeman and a for the
most part positive around table discussion followed with many
interruptions.
A vote was called on the motion by Chairman Harold.
The motion passed receiving unanimous support.
OPEN CLUB MEMBERSHIP TO OTHERS
The final agenda item was that of discussing the
possibility of opening the club membership to others truly interested in
the promotion of Street Rods and Vintage/Classic/Muscle Cars.
A round table was held:
Harold Dale:
Was in favour with two members required to sponsor new proposed
members
Bob Drew:
pointed out that very little rod building is going on anymore and
question what the club may have to offer new members
Warren Grimm:
felt the proposed structure would be boring to outsiders who were keen
builders
Skip Matheson:
Could find prospects at the proposed BBQ next summer
Dave Beattie:
Felt we would need a club house – ed: much yelling and
screaming NO NO followed
Grant Hughes:
very important to bring in new members. We also need to be more
positive in our goals and not think failure of some goals.
Gary Thede:
Just likes to enjoy the camaraderie with members
Paul Cassel:
Supported the idea but felt that based on a social club there would be
very few takers.
Andy Marsh:
Was wondering why anyone would want to join.
Bob Dykeman:
Club will die if we don’t open it up

Wants all original club members to show their support by contributing
$5.00 to become charter members.
