Message from the President Mar 2026
We Survived February!
We survived the month of February!
The big annual charity auction put on by the Pushrods is over and done. Patty Rager is currently in rehab for a few weeks, but we expect her to be just fine.
Year two under Patty’s leadership was another success! That success wouldn’t have been possible without the help of several members who went out into the community to gather donations, spending their own time and gas to get the job done.
The Pushrods have earned the respect of the greater Grays Harbor community through our generosity and commitment to helping others.
To everyone who helped on auction day, THANK YOU!
Introducing the Pushrods to the Next Generation
An exciting program is planned for Friday, March 27, at Aberdeen High School.
The Pushrods of Hoquiam will be making a club presentation to the school’s automotive shop program. We’ll talk about our club’s history, activities, functions, community service, and our plans for the future.
I’d also like to propose establishing two scholarships for the program to help young men and women pursue careers in the automotive field.
Hopefully, the weather will cooperate so we can bring some of our cars along for a little show and tell!
Our goal is to get younger people interested in becoming involved in our car culture. We need to encourage the next generation and help keep this hobby alive.
