Text Box: We handed out our new membership flyers for prospective members --- when you see someone with a GTO, Lemans, Tempest, or just know of someone with a keen interest in our club, give them a flyer. We can only grow with your help, and club members are our best sales people.
Special thanks also to those who pitched in for Adopt-a-Highway on Oct. 31, and our new hosts, June and Tim Smith.

Text Box: This beautiful '63 Bonneville (above) went on the block last month at the ICA auction in Gilbert, one of the first in the Valley for car auctions this season. The owner turned down the high bid of $18,000.
Text Box: Please come to our meeting this Thursday @ 7:00 for two important discussions:
We have confirmed dates for the Kruse Automobile Auction (see info below), so we are looking to sign up volunteers
Our second annual Turkey Run is this Saturday! Help us help those in need. The club will buy the turkeys – we just need your help delivering them. More info on the Web site soon, and at the meeting. 
Text Box: Just include the user name – cactusgto – and the password – goatluvrs. Our club roster is there as well.
Happy Motoring! - Mark Neumann
Kruse is back!
After reading the stories about Kruse's financial woes, we were contemplating no auction this year for the GTO Club. But the company has signed a commitment with the Renaissance Glendale Hotel & Spa (9495 W. Coyotes Blvd. Glendale) and the auction will run January 8th-10th. 
The club needs your support to make the auction a success. We'll have more details at the meeting on Thursday. Don't forget the other auctions in the Valley in January! Click here to get a list
