2010 Orlando Region Parts & Service Club SUMMER MEETING Hello fellow club members, Ford Motor Company employees, and vendors, This year the Board of Directors has planned an exciting format for our Summer Meeting. We felt that after all we have been through over the past two turbulent years that we truly deserved an event that would rejuvenate and kick start not only our business practice but also our great fellowship as a strong club. We have planned only one meeting this year, and it is with a twist! Starting on a Friday evening with a welcome buffet dinner and cocktail hour and ending Saturday evening with our scholarship presentations and award banquet. Saturday morning will feature a very special general session followed by a huge Vendor Trade Fair and our first ever Indoor Mustang Car Show. So I encourage everyone to register for this one-of-a kind event! Regards, Russ Caron (Club President) When: July 9th & 10th, 2010 Where: Gaylord Palms Resort and Convention Center in Kissimmee.
