Callcoy,

You forgot the Snyder 6:1 head and the rebuilt transmission with bell housing and pedals. Those are in our new premium raffle and in addition to our regular raffle.

We have gone all out this year for our 50th anniversary. Register your Model A and get a commerative license plate.

Come early, eat hardy, buy lots of premium raffle tickets to win premium prizes. Pray for sunshine.

Is anyone from the santa anita A's going? if so may be could tag along with them. thanks

Richard. Glad to see you settled your debt at the San diego swap, Pity i only drink coke. Now it is my turn to return the gesture. Real good to catch up & thank you for taking the time to track me down in the wet,Look forward to catching up in the future, NZ maybe or the next big meet, Thanks Buddy. Derek

Are any of these Raffle Tickets available on line, or do you have to be there in person to participate. Sounds like a worthwhile purchase!

[Richard in Anaheim CA]

Jim,

The prizes are big and heavy. You do have to be present and take the prizes with you. If you know anyone in So California they will probably be at the Breakfast. Have them buy your tickets and deliver your prizes

Thank You for your interest.

and it keeps growing. I am guessing that someday the OC model A club may have to look for a bigger place to hold this meet. Not only all the model A and the great raffles, you will meet the nicest people there. I have always had a great time at this meet

How much are the raffle tickets? I have a daughter in LA, she could buy them and store the winning parts.

Looks like I may not make the OC Pancake Breakfast. I may have to work the next few weekends. As slim as work is right now I can't turn it down. I am going to have withdrawal systoms until next year if I miss it.

[Gary WA]

Is there take out Pancakes for mailing ! Enjoy.

[Crazydaddyo]

Steve,
I have heard that this may be the last one held at Hart Park.
What do you know of this?

.

['29wagon]

it's an honor to attend this event , since it has been going on for so many years now . the trouble these guys go through to hold this for us to attend. i'm not a club member but the feeling i get when i do show up is just like family.
if it is a last then i blame the city of orange .
find out what you can do to keep this event happening .

[PO51]

How late will the event go? I have some Church stuff and can't get there until about 10:15 will that be to late?

Crazydaddyo;
Richard (club pres.) who you met when we saw you at the burger place is on the road to his grandsons graduation from basic at Lackland. I haven't heard from him yet tonight, I will relay the question and get a current update. Dan you can call Mark Schwing at 714-970-1676 he is a driving force and I believe has met with the powers that be at City Hall. I believe Richard told me they are giving the event gas! I moved away in 79 and now the whole place is going to hxll.

For the Barner who asked about arriving at 10:15,they keep serving to around 11:00 or so, they have always had food, but the cars have thinned out.

[Chris Haynes]

I'll be there when they add a swap meet to it.

['29wagon]

swap meet, in orange ? i think the city has enjoyed this long enough and they may want to hang it up , come on none of us are actually going to park in town and so money spent , ha . we get out five dollar breakfast and throw our green backs at the raffle .
what is it, ten reserved tables for $500 it's cleanest event in orange .


get there before the haze burns out your eyeballs .

Thanks Steve, I'll see you Sunday.

I belong to the OC Model A Club, and we had our monthly breakfast this morning. Richard was there, along with several other members and I asked about the future of using Hart Park. I was told that it is uncertain....the city will not commit to anything other than year to year. But I was also told that we are getting the clear message that the city is for some reason not real fond of the event. Not sure why, as they get paid for us to use it, and we leave the place cleaner than we found it.
So the answer is we don't really know, but by appearances our stay may be limited. I am sure they are contemplating options as to where to move if and when that happens.
In the meantime, come down...the weather forecast for this Sunday is clearing...no rain!

Thanks for the info.

Maybe the event could be moved to Oak Canyon Ranch next to Irvine lake.

It is a nice place with plenty of space.

I live in the city of orange and I'd like to know who is opposed to it so that I can vote them out of office.

I don't see their logic on this.

[Richard in Anaheim CA]

I don't think the City of Orange appreciates what we bring to the city but they are only doing what cities do best, making things a little tougher for us each year.

We follow the rules each year and I see no problem with planning a 51st annual pancake breakfast next year.

I think the rumor of no more pancake breakfasts which pops up each year is from us workers that are exhausted when it's over. A week or two later we look at the pictures, discuss how it went and start planning for next year.

Pray for sunshine and a dry creeek bed which happens to be our parking lot. Arrive hungry. Expect to have fun. Don't forget your raffle money. Happy winners are going to be toting home those fantastic prizes. It might be you.

Looks like I just might make it. I was suppose to work but now we are not shooting on sunday. I am planning on taking surface streets this time. According to map quest 2 hours and about 55 miles one-way . I want to be greedy and win the brake drums , Mitchell overdrive , 19 inch tires and what ever else I may want or need LOL
