From the desk of ITC Vice- President:
Hi Fellow ITC Members,
Boy am I energized, so many good things have been happening to ITC that I just don’t know where to begin. As you can tell our Script magazine is tracking to a schedule and the Script Committee is working very hard to make it the best it can be. I already believe it is an industry leader. Many thanks go out to Jim and Darlene Osowski, Malcolm Green and of course Kathy Holton who has single handily created a seamless new version of Script. Wow what a magazine.
Just look out your windows, spring is here, I got the bug, and my Thunderbirds are calling to me. Spring Fever is just around the corner. The only thing left for me to do is to take them out for the first spring drive and enjoy life. A great place for that first drive would be Watkins Glen NY for ITC’s Spring Fever. We will be taking laps around the road course at the historic NASCAR track, talk about fun. The All Ford Nationals held in Carlisle PA are also coming up fast. This is a must attend event, ITC is well represented at this four day event. The best part about the All Ford Nationals is that all the parts in the swap area are Ford parts, Yea Ford. Look for the write up about Spring Fever and the All Ford Nationals in Script or our Web page.
The last time I wrote to all members I said we had hit a low of 612 members in Sept. 2003. I have some great news, by Jan. 2004 we had 709 members on our membership list. Our last issue of Script was mailed to around 850 members. Talk about excitement, talk about being energized, talk about a great club, we got it, and the word is out. If you want to have fun, enjoy spectacular events, attend the best conventions, with the greatest magazine, produced by all volunteers headed by Kathy Holton, you’ve come to the right club. The next issue of Script will have some changes that are welcomed by the Script Committee, for one we now post a date, March/April issue, May/June issue etc. This is the first time in a few years we have posted dates of issues. We are encouraging new writers, if you have something interesting to say we probably want to hear it. The Script magazine now comes in its own envelope keeping it fresh and clean.
If you like the progress you have seen within ITC let us know. If you would like to see some changes in the club, give us your thoughts, if you would like to volunteer to assist with some changes we welcome your support. I would like to say that first and foremost ITC is about people, it’s about cars, and it’s about fun. If you like those things as much as I do, pass the word along to your friends, join in on the fun we have each and every year. Some of the best friendships I have ever made I made in ITC. Look for me at any of our events, I’ll be the one with the biggest smile.
John H Rowe ITC Vice President.
