Last week, the SBMC was all about the cars - we had an informative car panel discussion at our regular meeting and the 2nd Annual SBMC Car Show on Saturday. What a great event it was with 50 classic cars participating in our car show. Congratulations to Desi Desiderio and his committee for organizing such a successful event! Many thanks to all our Car Show sponsors and volunteers, especially to Mike Dungey with Nimnicht Chevrolet for being an event sponsor!

Like most things in life, what you get out of your SBMC membership will depend mostly on what you put in. Some members are content just to come to lunch occasionally and find a new friend or client every now and then. Other members will invest much more and develop a network of friends and business partners throughout the club.
No doubt, all of us would like to be able to do more for our club. But we have limits on the resources we can contribute - time, money, expertise, etc. One of the most valuable resources we need, you have an almost inexhaustible supply of. Probably the easiest and most valuable thing that any of us can do to benefit the club is to bring a guest along. Your guest will most likely enjoy our meeting and will appreciate your introduction to our club. I look forward to meeting and getting to know more of your guests at upcoming meetings and introducing you to mine.

2012 SBMC Membership Chair |

Tailgating starts at 1:00 PM, the game starts at 4:05 PM. The tailgating will be in the same place as last year at the fairgrounds near the Agricultural building. Look for the big white tent and a large smoker from Players Grille. If you can't find us, please call Julie at 607-0211.
If you are an SBMC member AND have season tickets, you can buy a wristband for $10 to come to the tailgating party.
