Each year, HCCP gathers for their “closing” ceremony at the Massey House on Thanksgiving morning. Each year, members of HCCP arrive with their families, donate food and toys, and make the time to enjoy friends, the car club hobby, and the free donuts and coffee that HCCP provides that day; as a matter of fact, each year HCCP takes the money given for coffee and donuts and donates it to the Massey House. The Frosbite Run gives the members a chance to give back to the community, reminisce with old friends, and remember that the holiday season is about to begin.

Alfisti, and other FOA (friends of Alfisti) are reminded to mark their calendars, if they haven’t already done so, for Sunday, 10 November 2013, for what may be the last opportunity of the year to enjoy your ALFA (or other favorite marque, if you so desire) before the nasty winter weather sets in, and at the same time renew acquaintances with old friends (and maybe make some new friends), and enjoy a glass of wine and what promises to be another first class lunch organized by the club’s Alan Aptner at the Black Bass Inn Lumberville, PA.

Those planning on participating are requested to RSVP by NOT LATER THAN Wednesday 30 October, to Alan Aptner who has worked hard to negotiate the same package price of $30.00 per person, even though this is a busy season for the restaurant. RSVP to Alan at email alan@dvaroc.org or phone 215-321-8312.

At that time please let Alan know the following:

c- Selection of one appetizer (soup OR salad), and one entree (see menu selections below) for each person in your party, and –
d- Cell phone and email where you can be reached (cell phone is especially important on tour day- please make sure it has adequate charge)

Once participants have committed to lunch with the club at the Black Bass (by Wed 30 Oct), they will be obligated to pay, whether or not they actually attend. This is necessary because the club will be committed to the restaurantfor the final head count.
Also, participants are required to complete, sign, date, and turn over to either Alan or Jack Stoll, upon arrival at the start point on tour day, the attached Driving

A- appetizer (select one per person)
1- soup du Jour
2- house salad w/balsamic vinaigrette

If anyone requires directions to the start point, they can contact either Alan or Jack Stoll at rjs@netcarrier.com or ph 215-343-9165.
