Spring "Burn Some Wood" Cookout - Cancelled
No, it's not cancelled due to it not being spring yet (as it's actually arrived), but I, in my infinite wisdom, scheduled it smack in the middle of the Easter longweekend, which is not a great time to host it...so we've wisely cancelled it.
Postponing wasn't seen as a great option, due to other upcoming event conflicts...so save your wood up for the Fall event in October.

Mark Smith Memorial Show 'n Shine -- June 18
Saturday, June 18 is the Mark Smith Memorial Show 'n Shine, to be held at the Sherwood Park Mall in Sherwood Park (obviously!).
In a remarkable coincidence, this year's event (our third annual, and first to commemorate our late member Mark Smith) will nearly be on the one year anniversary of Rae Smith's loss, as Mark passed away on June 19, 2010.
So plan ahead now to be in attendance...let's see if we can't get the entire club, and more, out for this one!
Bob Donald will have more information out soon via Martin Savill, as well as he'll soon start phoning you all in case we need to bend your rubber arms.

Meeting Reminder -- February 17
Sorry for the lateness of this reminder...but the February club meeting is today...Thursday, Feb 17 at 7pm in the 2nd floor boardroom at Park Mazda in Sherwood Park.
I will not be able to attend (due to a family emergency), however, Martin will be running the show. For those wishing their 2011 membership cards, I'll mail them out very soon (was intending to after the last meeting, however, my time's been taken up with the aforementioned emergency -- Martin may explain tonight).
Updates on the 2011 Topless Sun Run (hosted by the Okanagan Valley Miata Club) will be given (registration goes live on March 1), the Race Week Edmonton events, and the usual Miata-related stuff.
Cheers,
Richard

Targa fundraising efforts
To quote the Flyin' Miata website:
Well, the answer is yes!
We are the first Miata club to reach the $500 threshold, so congratulations people. We're actually at $600 already, and per the people that have e-mailed me but have not yet undertaken the transaction (which won't be billed until March, assuming that FM makes the required $10,000), we're at $875 and climbing.
Keep it up!
Clubs
We have a special setup for clubs. If members of the club pledge a total of $500 or more, we'll put the club name on the car. Simply send us the name of the club and a list of the members who are taking part, then have the members pledge normally. The Wild Rose Miata Club of Edmonton has proclaimed they'll be the first to reach this point. Will they?

Targa Newfoundland 2008 video viewing
As a bonus for the January meeting, we'll be showing the 2008 Targa Newfoundland race, in which Keith & Janel Tanner competed in with the "Targa Miata", winning their class.
This will both help to stave off "Cabin Fever" in light of the nine days of constant snowfall that we've received, and to perhaps rouse the membership to support Flyin' Miata's efforts to return to the Targa Newfoundland for 2011.
