Spring Fling Road Rally

April 21^st, 2007

Ready Set………………………………………Gone   !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a terrific warm –“Top Down” - sunny day to have a Super “Spring Fling” Road Rally through the beautiful South Jersey countryside. We had total of 11 cars participate in the rally and 28 participants plus the coordinators for lunch. The Rally participants started out at around 9:30AM (after doughnuts and coffee – of course!:) at the Riverwinds Community Center in West Depford. They traveled through the south Jersey countryside looking for clues to the questions, through left turns, right turns, U turns and round-a-bouts. Through townships, borrows and cities. The rally ended at the Riverview Inn in Pennsville 2-3 hours later where everyone had a wonderful buffet lunch over looking the Delaware River and the Delaware Memorial Bridge.

Sissy and Skip were the overall winners this year and were presented out beautiful antique pass along trophy and a Route 66 game for their competitive efforts. The most miles – 69 and longest time – 2hours and 13 min, award went to none other than Joe DiCara and Tom McLarney who decided to pair up for the event since their wives couldn’t make it (their wives probably could have helped them – what do you think?). They received a gas can and a tool set to help them along next year. The fastest time went to Ray and Gillian Reeve. The Best poker hand went to Ginny Horsey and Carol Veldon  with 3 fours – the worst to the Kornafel’s. Everyone enjoyed the wonderful lunch, friendship and scenery. A special thanks to Mike Cashen and Joe Veldon who put in a lot of hours and drive time to make it a successful rally. Also, thanks to Sharon and Carl Grossman and Dick Schutz for manning the poker stops and taking care of those turkey buzzards – right Carl?. We’ll have to make those poker stops a little sooner next year.

All the Best,
