N o more rain in the Pacific Northwest (well I

guess I need to follow up that statement with APRIL

FOOLS!)

This year is just flying by. Thank you Jerry Murphy for putting togeth-

er a great Poker Cruise. It was a great time!

Most of you know the club has the honor of escorting all of the Daffo-

dil’s “Teachers of the Year” in the parade. This is a great honor for

our club. It you have a convertible and are free on the 9th of April, we

could really use your help. We also have a group of non-convertibles

that ride further back in the parade (making lots of noise). If you have

any questions, please contact Pam Pistella or Missy Willert.

The 17th of April is National Mustang Day. Monika has planned a

great West Seattle Cruise that will include us participating in LeMay

America’s Car Museum’s celebration. Come out and support this

great cruise.

Fun Facts: (from Pete Freeman)

Leonardo DA Vinci could write with one hand

and draw with the other at the same time, in-

venting multi-tasking. (I, on the other hand,

can’t draw with either.)

PCMC General Meeting Minutes—March 15, 2016

(continued)

“When replacing fuses, Ford says to disconnect the negative cable of the battery before starting work. Depending

on the year of your Mustang the fuse box location will be different, on older models look for the fuse box to be

located under the dash by the drivers kick panel. Newer model Mustangs the fuse box is easier to get to, general-

ly you will find it located under the hood next to a fender, look for a rectangular box and remove the lid to access

the fuses.”

“As we are moving out of the winter months it is time to bring the Mustangs out of storage, don’t forget to check

your battery health.”

Mustang of the Month

Lori Brees Eakland

1997 Black With Gold Trim

My Mustang is a Black (stock) 1997 Coupe, with the little 3.8. I purchased the car in the spring of 2005 (with boys off to college and minivan broken) and joined Pierce County Mustang Club in November of that year. I've been a member for 10 years! I've learned so much about Mustangs and how to show a car and how to polish & wax but the biggest thing I've learned is what a great group of people this club has for members! I don't get to meetings very often because of my work but I sure enjoy this group of wonderful folks!

See you at the car shows! Lori Brees Eakland

One special day a year, the Mustang world unites by taking their Mustangs to the road! All Mustang enthusiasts know April 17th is the birthdate of the Mustang and was first shown to the automotive world at the New York World's Fair. The goal of the National Mustang Day is to unite all of the Mustang enthusiasts, by driving their Mustang. Imagine one day a year, the Mustangs are everywhere! In fact, the Mustang Club of America celebrates April 17th every five years as a Mustang Birthday Celebration. To make this happen, it will take Mustang Clubs, Registries and enthusiasts to help or-ganize the National Mustang Day. How? This year, April 17th falls on a Sunday, a perfect day to go on a cruise. Organize a cruise, invite friends and neighbors to join as passengers. As the Mustang World organizes such activity, let us know, so we can add it to the web-site. We want to be the home base to help spread the information so clubs, Registries, and automotive organizations can see how the Mus-tang Nation celebrates National Mustang Day. So let’s get the Mustangs fixed up, cleaned up and take to work, let your co-workers know you are a Mustang enthusiast, and you will find out your co-workers are Mustang enthusiasts, too. Let the world see why we are Mustang en-thusiasts. Whether you take the Mustang on a cruise or to work, it is a day to drive the Mus-tang. Nationalmustangday.com is your headquarters to help make this event become part of the Mustang World.

To help make this event build to the level to make all Mustang owners proud to be part of the Mustang World, we will approach the Mus-tang manufacturers and service companies to help advertise the event to their customers. We also want to approach traditional restau-rants and retailers, to help bring more attention to National Mustang Day.

To make this a National event, we would like all clubs, Registries or/ad individuals to register their plans. For those clubs that register, we will send them a window decal to proudly dis-play that they took part in the National Mustang Day-the largest Mustang event ever held.

From Our Club:

PCMC is celebrating with a Mustang Day Cruise to West Seattle. Monika has taken this on and it should be a great event. We have done a similar drive before and it was spectacu-lar.

As the article says, clean up those ponies and bring them out to ride. Ironically April is National Straw Hat Month as well. What goes together bet-ter than a Mus-tang, ride, and a straw hat?!

It may have been a cool day but that didn’t stop members from showing up to enjoy a March cruise with fellow club members and friends and family.

Thank you Jerry and Kathy for organizing another fun cruise and poker run.

We had about 24 cars and about 38 people go for a 2 hour cruise

that ended in a fabulous lunch at Tonala Restaurant in Bethel Station.

There were prizes for best cos-tumed couple, best kid green costume, best poker hands and worst poker hands. Kathy

made some great (and very usable) scarves for raffle prizes.

We saw lots of peo-ple out for this event

which was really spectacular. We hope this is how all of our cruises will be. Lots of people, lots of cars, and lots of fun.

Upcoming Events

April Happenings for Mustang Birthday!

April 17 marks the 52nd Birthday of our beloved Mustang.

This day has been declared NATIONAL MUSTANG DAY and Mustang owners are encouraged

to get their Mustangs out on the road.

The Pierce County Mustang Club has organized a cruise to West Seattle that day. We will meet

at the Tacoma Mall Krispy Kreme @ 10 am and cruise along the beautiful Puget Sound water-

front to West Seattle.

Each driver will get a raffle ticket along with the directions and 10 Seattle theme items will be raf-

fled off. Hint—sorry, this is not a raffle for Packer & Patriot fans. We will also raffle off 4 gift cou-

pons for our destination eatery.

We are also promised to receive National Mustang Day window decals so come out and join us.

For the April Club raffle I will have a wrapped Mustang mystery gift as the main prize. I assure

you the gift will not disappoint. So get some extra raffle tickets.

Hope to see you all, rain or shine, on Sunday (4/17) for the cruise and Tuesday (4/19) for our

membership meeting.

Happy Trails,

Monika

June 11th we are planning another fun evening at a Tacoma Rainiers game.

We have reserved 20 seats and can reserve more but the sooner we get our seats the

better the chances are we can all get seated together.

Tickets will include a hot dog, chips and beverage, club recognition on the board, reserved seats,

and program for $12.50. For $18.50 you get all of those “goodies” plus a Limited Edition Tacoma

Rainier’s Hat!!

See the flyer with the ticket order in the Flyer section of this newsletter. Please

bring this to a club meeting or send it into the club (info on the flyer) by May 2nd

This was a lot of fun last year and will be again. We hope to see a big club turn

out.
