Fiberglass Alley Event 2012

 Hi! Folks - Wanted to let everyone know that we so enjoyed the
 Fiberglass Alley event this year. Everyone in our Vettes of Coastal
 Maine car club is still talking about how much fun the event was this
 year. We attended the event last year and were on the "fence" about
 whether to attend or not for 2012 because we didn't feel as if it was
 "special" enough last year to attend again and drive the long trip, but
 everyone who had attended in years past and had gone to the event when it
 was held at the golf club told us that we must try it again and that it
 would be better this year. AND IT SURE WAS!!! We loved it!!!! The
 car show area was wonderful with the opportunity for the public to attend
 it much easier and everyone loved the embroidered hats & flowers for
 prizes. The golf club was an excellent venue for both the evening event
 & breakfast morning - the food was excellent and the staff there really
 catered to us. We stayed at the hotel right next to the car show area
 and downtown and this was very convenient especially because we were able
 to take our Dixie "dog" with us. You had so many great prizes and the
 PINK theme made it FUN!!! Hoping to see all of you at some point soon
 ~~~~~ a lot of us are attending the St. John event in August. THANKS FOR
 A GREAT TIME!!!

Hi to all members of River Valley Vettes
Just a quick note to say thanks to each of you that brought prizes in for Fiberglass Alley 2012.  Everything went smoothly.  From Friday’s Casino to Sunday’s breakfast, people were happy !!! 
Loved having the Fredericton Golf Club as our Social spot.............everybody was commenting on how delicious the food was and how much of it we had to eat.  The  bacon wrapped scallops and meatballs flew off the table Friday evening before the casino opened !  The BBQ was, as always, delicious !  We even had a beautiful and tasty cake -  (Julia baked and decorated it,............:))) 
Can you believe the car show was almost a problem............(so many cars that we were running out of space) Vern and John handled that situation well)   The new style ‘class prizes were gorgeous...and it was a lovely touch having a rose for ladies  of the winning car.
Too much fun watching the people checking hands.......and searching for ‘nuts.  Those who worked the hardest found that it paid well.  Speaking of paying well – the rope event eventually did  get a good number of competitors !!!  It was won by a couple that I understand were from Quebec.  I NEED an address for them,...they won $60.00................. Second and third places also got  cash prizes.
Participants had lots of time to freshen up and get back to the Fredericton Golf Club for dinner and festivities...and a beautifully  decorated PINK room-Four girlie friends  had worked their magic  using Tom’s signs and  other decorations. ......What a meal........as usual, Aggie, Larry and crew outdid themselves ! Mainly chicken and ribs.....many  people had  two or more refills....Aggie treats us so well – is a joy working with her.  They help us in every possible way.  Not many places accept your final number for dinner at noon of ‘that day.
What a band !!!  Iron Rooster................If you weren’t there,....ask anybody that heard them.  They actually ‘learned some songs (car types) just for us !
Back at the Fredericton Golf Club for a well presented buffet of just about anything ! Scrambled eggs, bacon, beans ,hash browns ,fruit ,muffins, toast, tea and coffee...........YUMMY.......After many  hugs and good-byes and  oodles of extremely positive comments, our friends  left for home. RVV folks sat and chatted awhile – then, did the same.
Again, thanks to all that donated and helped in any way !
