Speaking of jumping in feet first,  that
        phrase  certainly   describes  our  energetic,   newly
        elected,   vice-president,  Paul  Rowney,  a  UK  native
        and his wife, Sheri.

        The  gloss  had  scarcely  dulled  on  his  new
        membership  lanyard  name  tag  before  Paul  was  on
        the phone to the club president offering to help with
        the annual car show.  Then, there was a convergence,
        as they say in physics.

        Paul was volunteering his services just as Russ Welty
        ,  the current vice president, was letting Todd know
        he would have to bow out of the position because of
                                                                      What 's in t he  Rowney's Very

        grandfather.   This  all  happened  just  as  the  annual
        meeting  was  approaching   and  candidates  for  the
        open position needed to be found.

        Paul  did  not  demur  and  although  he  was  not  in
        attendance  at  the  annual  meeting,  he  was
        nominated from the floor and unanimously elected
        by a voice vote.
