Art Harvey - AHC NE President's Message
State of the President
Hello All,
November went by fast. With the Thanksgiving Holiday on the last Thursday of the month it seems like the whole month was a big blurr. I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday. Being with family and friends, feasting on the holiday fare no matter what your favorite is. Did you eat a lot? That is the the reason we celebrate isn’t it? Or is the true meaning to give thanks for what we have, family members present and past, Our friends. There is so much to be thankful for. Eating a lot is just part of the journey. By the way, if you did eat a lot, like I did, do you still fit in your Healey?
As I mentioned last month November and December are my favorite holiday seasons. Christmas and other religious holidays await us this month and soon, not long after the celebration of a New Year will be upon us. Speaking of the New Year, January will usher in our Annual General Meeting. There are lot of Club events coming up where our bylaws require advanced membership notification. One such item is a vote on updated Chapter Bylaws. Your Bylaw committee has been hard at work streamlining and modernizing these Articles we as a club will be voting on. To review these updates please follow this link where you can review the proposed updates in Red. The link is https://www.ahca-newengland.org/ahc-of-ne-bylaws.html.
We have gotten a request from AHCA looking for support the Austin Healey Museum. We have recommendations from the board to commit support for a three year period while possibly consider a charity on Cape Cod as part of our 50 Year anniversary.
Also please consider this month those in need remembering the less fortunate. Toys for Tots, food charities at grocery stores, Salvation Army. There are plenty of places to volunteer time and financial support. Also don’t forget to start planning your special Christmas Wish list for yourself.
Renewals will be coming up soon so be on the look out for renewal notices and renew early. I’m sure you don’t want to miss out on all the up coming activities for 2025 and our 50th Year Celebration.
In closing, I wanted to share a thank you note AHCA/NE received from British Cars Of New Hampshire. Many of you are aware of the Show of Dreams BCNH puts on in July. 2024 the featured Marque was the Austin Healey. Wing 6 under the leadership of Bob Britton was pleased to donate a nominal amount toward supporting this event. The Event raised $21,000.00 to support the New Hampshire Food Bank. Look for a copy ot the thank you note in this issue.
Happy Holidays to all!!!
Regards and Happy Healeying,
