What’s Cooking!
Updates from our last board meeting.
(September 18, 2025)
At this month’s meeting our club leadership reviewed plans for our special 65th anniversary club celebration. This also coincides with PCA’s 70th anniversary year, and we are excited to have an excuse to celebrate! This year our plans are to hold this special dinner event on November 15th at the Smyrna Opera House located in Smyrna, Delaware. This looks to be a beautiful venue at a historic building that dates back to 1870.
Meanwhile, our team also spent time reviewing and planning for upcoming events. First we have the Brandywine Polo event which was held on September 21st under beautiful weather. We also confirmed plans for our upcoming monthly dinner meeting and social gathering which will be held on Wednesday, October 15th at Two Stones Pub down in Middletown. Folks had a great time at Two Stones at our last meeting there in 2024. Registration is by way of MSR.
Discussions were also had about club elections and selecting the club leadership for next year. Election nominations need to happen soon. The membership nominates and votes for upcoming officers. Voting will be in November for the 2026 term.
We hope to get the word out about our special track poster soon.
We discussed getting out a survey to membership to learn more about member preferences and what type of club experiences might they enjoy.
Our next board meeting is presently scheduled for October 23rd.
