It was a pleasant surprise to see a new membership form arrived from someone who has been connected to the Club since at least February of 2004, which is when her husband joined RECOA.
Not only that, but our new member has purchased a new UCE Enfield – in this case the De Luxe G5, though she is keeping her Sachs 650.
So a very big welcome to CYNTHIA WALKER. I guess that since Bruce is Club President,
that makes Cynthia the First Lady
