Thanksgiving Dinner
Once again a good time was had by all at
the annual SCC Thanksgiving Dinner
hosted by Nino’s restaurant in Stuart. This
year we had a total of 78 folks sign up for
the event to get in training for the upcoming
holiday food marathon! It’s a tough job but
we were all up to the challenge. More
importantly, a record 290 pounds of
food, nearly 50 pounds more than last
year, was donated by our members for
the Food bank which will hopefully make
several more Thanksgivings a little brighter
as well. Special thanks to all that attended
and were kind enough to share their time
and food with others, and to Barb and Dick
Fisher for delivering the bounty to the Food
Bank. Thanks to Al and Billie Delong for
setting up this event.

SCC Member with a Rare 2001 Coupe
When Al and Billie DeLong went to order their 2001 6-speed Coupe almost 15
years ago, they insisted on combining the "Pewter Metallic" paint with a "Torch
Red" interior. The salesman tried to talk them out of it saying that red was not a
popular color and that they would regret their decision down the road. But they
stood firm and as Al would later say; "The bright red color made us happy every
time we got into the car. We have always loved it and never regretted it for a
minute". Turns out that they may have made a real good choice. A recent
investigation through the National Corvette Museum shows that their 6-speed
Coupe is only one of FIVE produced that year with the same color combination.
Al says that "as a one owner car with only 22k on the odometer, it's probably
only ONE of ONE remaining like that. Turns out to be one of the best decisions
we ever made!"

We're going to have lunch at Calaveras Cantina, a Mexican restaurant at Harbourside. They have a website with their menu. They have upscale Mexican food and cocktails. We are planning to eat outside on their covered patio if the weather is nice.
