February is winding down and Spring is just around the corner. The
Clark's 2012 supplement is out. This Winter has been mild and relatively snow and salt free, but those of you whom put their cars away
should be getting ready. The PCA's first event will be March 25th. The March Meeting will be a cruise to the Northeast Rod & Custom Car Show on Sunday, the 25th. We will cruise to the show and grab something to eat after the show. More details
will be posted on the events page. 2012 dues are due by 2/29/12. If you have not already paid, please do so now. Dues may be mailed

Well January is winding down and Spring is just around the corner.
We all had a great time at the Winter Get Together Party. Marlene made a great cake, good food, great people and a great
time. You can see some photos here. It is that time of year again so if you have not paid your dues, please
do so now. CORSA has started charging all chapters a fee for members whom are not also CORSA members to help defer the cost of the insurance provided by the national
club. PCA Dues are still $12.00 for regular mail and $10.00 for e-mail for CORSA members, if you are not a member of CORSA, there is a $3.00 surchage on top of the usual PCA dues. Please pay your
dues promptly. We are looking forward to a great year with great events, tech sessions and more. Clarks Corvair Parts 2012 supplement is in the mail so be on the lookout for it. The salt
has been at a minimum so far so this year and the temperatures mild so get out there and drive!

Debb Marvill had their 64 Spyder Coupe with them. You can see them on the Club Photo Album page. Bob covered new FC repos from Clark's in a mini tech session.

the calendar for 2012. It is your opportunity to have a say, share your ideas, and contribute to your club. We
