February Minnesota SAAB Club Newsletter 2002
 
Aloha!  I hope everyone has been enjoying the winter weather we finally received.  Snow and cold?  What's that?  Maybe this is a little incentive to put some "heat" into your love life this month??
 
It appears as though there will be no ice trials this season.  (awwww)  The weather just hasn't been cooperating and as a result, neither has the sherrif's department.  There are, however, a couple of really neat rallies coming up soon!  Dean can fill us in on all of the exciting details.
 
Max  will be giving a presentation this month (February 7th)  on aeronautical navigation and how it can be applied to rallying.  Try and show up a little early, as this will prove to be very educational and entertaining.   
 
There was a fix-it-yourself day at Meyer Garage on January 26th.  Only a handfull showed up, but it was a fun time anyway.  Make sure you don't miss the next event this month on Saturday, February 23rd.  The earlier you show up the better.  It's not very often most of us get the opportunity to use a lift and heated garage space in the middle of winter!  Call Meyer Garage for details @ 1-888-722-2246. 
 
Visited the club website lately?  It's changing all the time.  Go to www.mnsaabclub.org  and put in your two cents worth.  Photos and other Saab related stuff always welcome. 
 
The club treasury balance stands at $556.52 according to Shane.  He also passes along this note;  "I just wanted to remind those members who may be holding SAAB club stock in their retirement portfolios that they should read the restrictions regarding selling of said stock, regardless of what options board members may be excercising with their shares."  Thanks for the heads up Mr. Donahue.
