Porsches and Pancakes at The Trailer Depot
Another new year is upon us and CVR kicked off the monthly programs calendar with our annual pilgrimage to The Trailer Deport in Northford. Our host Mike Duhamel and The Trailer Depot staff hosted this popular social event. Although there were threats of icey conditions the temps remained moderate and we even had blue skies by the time the meeting was over. We had 70+ CVRers make their way to this popular event. First up on the agenda was breakfast! Just like last year, George Chatzopoulos’s of Chip’s Family Restaurant dispatched the Pancake Truck with driver and pancake-cooker extraordinaire John at the helm. John got right to work dispensing freshly made pancakes right from the truck as the CVRers eagerly did their part consuming them. Everyone in attendance enjoyed a delicious and hearty breakfast.
As is typical for this meeting. socialization was the main goal as members caught up with each other on the latest happenings. We then moved on to the business portion of the meeting. We introduced Mike who briefly covered the offerings that The Trailer Depot can assist members with and then introduced his staff. He then went over some of the highlights of their inventory and the many services that The Trailer Depot provides. If you need a trailer you KNOW where to go. We then moved on to the CVR business meeting by handing things over to Allen Fossbender. Allen started the meeting by reviewing our new volunteers for 2018. CVR would not be the great organization that it is without the support of our many volunteers. Some of our new volunteers were in attendance included Joe Morrow from Programs, Joe Kunecki for the Emporium, and Christine and Tim Beckwith as Rally masters. Allen then moved on to review our busy 2018 CVR calendar and called upon the activity chairs in attendance for additional detail. The meeting concluded with our door prizes which featured gift cards provided by The Trailer Depot. A great time was had by all. Thanks to The Trailer Depot team and Chips!!! (Antoinette, Kelli, Pete, and John). What a great start for 2018!
We hope to see you at next month’s monthly meeting which is being hosted by Danbury Porsche in Danbury. Please be sure to register using your constant contact invitation. You’ll be receiving your invite in February.
Thanks, your CVR programs crew.
