                                Thunderbird Appreciation Day 2025

                   May 18 was Thunderbird Appreciation Day, and the annual Venus Ford car show.
                                             th
            With 2025 also being the 70  anniversary of the Thunderbird, Venus showcased Pete
            Zierden’s 1955 Thunderbird inside the dealership.  Outside, there were between 15
            and 20 Thunderbirds on display.  Unfortunately, the cool weather and gloomy skies
            kept several Thunderbirds at home in their garages.  It seemed that many spectators
            enjoyed looking at the various generations of T-birds on the show field.
                 After the show, it was of course time to eat, so several members headed down the
            road to the Final Approach on Howell Ave.  Our group had their own private sunroom
            overlooking the airport across the street.  It seemed everyone was happy with their
            meals, and after a little more conversation, it was time to head home.  Hopefully better

            weather next year will bring out even more members with their cars.
