Message from the President Nov 2024
November 2024 is upon us, with past news, upcoming Pushrod events, and future projects in the planning stages.
Fred Scott Inducted into the Washington Hot Rod Hall of Fame
In late September, the Pushrods made their way to the Washington Hot Rod Hall of Fame to see Fred Scott inducted. It was a very nice event, and Fred gave a humble and grateful speech. Congratulations, Fred!
Helping Hoquiam High School
On October 19, eleven hearty souls showed up to pressure-wash the Hoquiam High School stadium bleachers. Three hours of work put them back into clean and happy condition!
Fred treated everyone to lunch at the Grizzly Den afterward. It was a good day for fellowship and giving the community a helping hand.
Annual Charity Auction – February 2025
If you haven’t heard, the Pushrods of Hoquiam are moving forward with our annual charity auction in February 2025.
A group of officers and board members is sharing the responsibility of putting this together. Despite the utter lack of a single person volunteering to head up the project, I felt we could adapt and overcome our situation!
A big thank-you to Patty Rager for getting the ball rolling on donations.
I’m asking all Pushrods to donate in some way, if possible. An item of value or a cash donation will go a long way toward helping us reach our goal for the number of auction items.
- Donation solicitation deadline: February 1, 2025
- Auction date: February 16, 2025
Let’s pull together and make this happen!
