I wanted to let you all know that our scheduled Pittsburgh Region CLC board and membership meeting for this Saturday has been changed to Tuesday, June 2, 2009 @ 6:00pm to be held at the Eat 8N 9 Park in Robinson, 100 Park Manor Drive, 15205. (412) 787-8556.<br><br> Some of the agenda topics for this meeting with be our next group events - The Grand National in Las Vegas, the Brookville Laurel Festival/Steve Greenberg's Cadillac Garage Trip, and the 2009 Club events calendar (including plans to celebrate the Pittsburgh Region 9s Silver Anniversary& yep, that 9s 25 years of Pittsburgh Region Cadillac LaSalle Club!). I hope you can all make it and will contribute your opinions to make this year a continued success for our club. An additional note: Stephanie, Jack, and I will NOT be attending the Grand National in Las Vegas as previously planned.<br><br> Scheduling conflicts with Steph's school and post-graduate program at Duquesne, the pre-planning of the arrival of baby girl McHugh in September (yep& in case you haven 9t heard yet, Jack is going to be a big brother!), and other commitments are forcing us to rethink our overbooked schedules. We are planning, however, to attend the Brookville Trip to Steve's Garage on June 21st. Lastly, I wanted to mention that long-time Pittsburgh Region CLC member and current Board member, Frank McBurney is still in the hospital.<br><br> Frank has spent over 100 days in the hospital because of post-surgery complications and his recovery has been slow. Please keep Frank, Audrey, and the whole McBurney family in your thoughts and prayers.

You may have noticed that we now call for all membership dues for the 2009 Car Season in February. We 9re trying to get everyone on the same schedule: renewal of all membership dues in February (no later than March) of each year.<br><br> This is different from the way the National CLC does things (you renew with them in the same month when you established membership). It 9s just a bit easier to manage new members and veteran members if we call for membership renewal of all established members at the same time each year. Anyway, if you haven 9t yet renewed your membership, we hope you 9ll do so soon.<br><br> If you have any questions, don 9t hesitate to be in touch. Hoping to see you all very soon at a 2009 Car Season event! Warmest wishes- Stephanie The Official Newsletter of the Pittsburgh Region CLC For Over 20 Years The Caddy Chatter May 2009 We 9re now on the Web!<br><br> w w w . cl cpgh .or g
