​​​​​​​​​​​​​Last event:

On May 31st we took our first drive of the season. This was the latest date for our first drive...thanks to going from winter to summer. Spring was MIA. Seven cars and 12 members took a peppy Roger and Nancy Latimer drive throughout the countryside on a perfect, sunny day. Roger does know all of the back roads. It was the long way to the White Turkey and everyone enjoyed the trip. We stopped at Peggy Gray Candies, the White Turkey and Godfrey Run (for Penn State ice cream). There were 6 red NA's, NB's and NC's along with one lonely, gray NB. The ND people must have been too busy to join us.
