Galveston Meet 2007

February 17, 2007

 

For the first time in many years, Mother Nature was not cooperating with the weather.  Indiana was hit with a snow storm the night before the Galveston Indiana meet.  Galveston is located just north of Kokomo, Indiana and just south of that line about 6 inches of new snow was deposited on the ground in addition to the 12 inches already laying on the ground in some parts of the state.  This new snow prevented quite a few MOB’sters from attending the second meet of 2007.  Only about 14 brave souls came out and made the trip to the Community Center in the heart of Galveston.  There were a few motors on display and Dave Tranter set up his literature display for the few fellows who braved the elements.  Dean Chapman gave a lecture on the art of making your own decals.  He gave a demonstration on applying the decals on a Martin tank.  Terry Aeschliman brought out the chili for the members and there was plenty left over.  Ken Morse took over as the spokesman for the chapter and discussed some topics pertaining to Constantine.  Other topics were tabled until the next meet at the Appenzeller Restoration Shop in Milford Indiana next month.   This writer didn’t attend due to the inclement weather. 

 

See Ya On The Water!
