The Outsiders Car Club kicked off the 2010 year with a Valentine Celebration for the club. The evening started out with a wonderful dinner served at the Meeting Place in Jamestown. The menu consisted of a Fillet steak with shrimp, baked potato and all the trimmings.
Owner George Alford and crew at the Meeting Place did a fantastic job on the food and decorations. The atmosphere was set for couples also. The room was dark with candle light on each table, with table cloths and romantic music playing in the background. If you missed it you missed the nicest event in town for Valentine's Day.
After enjoying a wonderful meal at Meeting Place and letting dinner settle, the group went to the Jamestown Family Fun Center for a night of dancing, karaoke and desert. An assortment of cakes and deserts were placed on the tables when guests arrived for the dance and karaoke. The hall was also decorated for the event.
Renee Dix, manager of the Jamestown Center did a wonderful job of setting things up. It turned out to be a very nice night for the club and the first official outing of the new year. In attendance from the Outsiders Car Club were, Mike & Phyllis Taylor, Mike & Dwayne Esau, Ronnie and Judy Wilson, Ron and Fill Cowell, Neil and Maralee Patton and Suzzanne Conover.
To catch you up to date with The "Outsiders Club, election of officers took place last September. The new President of the club is Ron Cowell, Vice President, Neil Patton, Secretary, Judy Wilson and Treasurer, Mike Taylor make up the officers of the club.
