Please come join us for the annual OCTC November Potluck and Calendar of Events Meeting at our Newcastle home.
Our semi-retirement this past year has given us some extra time to work on favorite projects around the shop. Those projects include working on new improved displays for all of our collectibles, and we would love to share them with anyone interested in seeing them. If you are interested in viewing the fruits of our ongoing project, please allow plenty of time before the meeting, or feel free to view them after the meeting and potluck.
For those of you new to OCTC, the business portion of this event can be a bit dreary, but it is also your chance to have a say in what events you would like to see on the Olympic Calendar for 2019. If you have any ideas, it's always helpful to let your Trustees know ahead of time, but last minute ideas are also welcome.
What get's us through the meeting is the anticipation of enjoying another delicious Olympic potluck. This event is always a great opportunity to get to know your fellow Olympic members.
Hope to see many of you here.
PLEASE BRING: Your favorite potluck dish. Your hosts will furnish hot and cold beverages, plates and utensils.
Don't forget your name tags.
Frank and Cathy
Agenda:
1. Making choices and scheduling our next year’s Calendar of Events.
2. Presenting Longevity Pins to those who have earned them.
3. Honoring a member with the annual Allstrom All-Star Award.
4. Any other club business.
We’re Reaching Out to You for Event Ideas!
Again, we are asking for your help with ideas to fill our 2019 Calendar. As wonderful as our members are, it seems a struggle to get enough ideas and volunteers to host our monthly outings. We truly need your support on this! Please know we can’t do it without your input, and we’re urging members to offer suggestions so we can choose from a nice variety. We’d very much like to hear from some of our newer members, as well as from those who have volunteered in the past. We would rather have too many ideas to pick from than not enough. Sending us your ideas in advance of the meeting allows the Trustees to review them and put them into a tentative schedule to present at the meeting. It makes the meeting a lot more orderly and organized, and it gets us to those tasty potluck treats a lot quicker. We welcome non car-related ideas as much as the car-related ones. We look forward to hearing from as many of you as possible. You can contact any of the four Trustees listed below. Thank you.

As part of this business meeting, we’ll also include a short Awards Ceremony to give out Longevity Pins to those who have earned them, and to present the annual “Allstrom All-Star Award.” This All-Star plaque was initiated to recognize an OCTC member who has provided our club with some form of outstanding or special service during the past year. The award is a tribute to the memory of Dean Allstrom, an original and lifetime member of OCTC who played an active, devoted role in our club’s growth and lasting success. Annual recipients are selected by a vote of our club’s Executive Board.
Please plan to attend this important meeting that includes all of the above plus a potluck that’s an absolute winner.

Greetings fellow T’birders.
We’re excited to let you know we’ve picked Mitzel’s restaurant in Kent to have our Christmas holiday party. It’s somewhat centrally located, has easy freeway access, and is surrounded by Ramada Inn, Comfort Inn, and Days Inn. (See directions below.)
Mitzel’s has offered us their larger banquet room which accommodates up to 52 people. Let’s complete a great Olympic Club year by filling this room to capacity. We get to order on our own, selecting from six different entrée choices. These choices include: Prime Rib Dip with fries ($14.29); Panko Breaded Fish and Chips ($15.99); American Club Sandwich with fries ($13.79); Bacon Cheeseburger with fries ($13.79); Ceasar Salad with Grilled Chicken or Shrimp ($13.79); and Lighter Fare Rotisserie Turkey Dinner ($12.59). All entrée prices include a choice of coffee, tea, or soda. Available at an added cost are soup, salad, alcoholic beverages, and a delicious selection of desserts. We’ll receive separate checks that will include tax and an 18% gratuity.
As a bonus in the spirit of the season, Santa has donated a couple of surprise give-aways, but you must be present to win. Don’t miss out on this. Your chances to be a lucky winner here are far better than playing the lottery.
Please mark your calendars and RSVP to Michael/Bonnie Hall (mb57@harbornet.com) or 253-927-0999. You can also RSVP using the form below.. This will allow the restaurant an approximate number for proper staffing. Thank you. We look forward to celebrating with you at this year-end festive event.
