Oct 2026 Pony Tales

20 Ford Mustang Prototypes Considered For Production But Never Made It

Next GHMC Board Meeting Wednesday, October 7, at Denny's in Cordelia, We have the room from 6 pm which should give us an hour for food and mingling before settling down for business at 7.

The subject line says it all.  Some key people will be away on the regular October 1 meeting date, and some have other ongoing commitments on the second Thursday.

At this meeting, as well as at the September membership meeting, we will honor Peter and Lisa for being the new Pony Tales creators.

On Thursday, July 23rd, our GHMC family lost one of its dedicated board members. Don McEachern passed unexpectedly while on a photoshoot in Pasco, Washington, doing what he loved. Please keep his beautiful wife, Lynne, in your thoughts and prayers as she navigates this devastating loss. Details about a Celebration of Life will be forthcoming. 

Hello GHMC members,

Let’s take a CRUISE. We have booked a cruise to the Caribbean on the Celebrity Cruise Ship “Eclipse” for February 19, 2027. This is a 10-day, 9-night cruise, going from Ft.

From Matthew Brown:

Mr. Banovitz,

I wanted to personally thank you for the care package the Golden Hills Mustang Club sent me.  I personally took the girl scout cookies for myself but handed out the remainder of the package to one of my
squads.  They were very thankful of the socks and magazines as entertainment runs short out here.

Please give our thanks to CrossFit Solano as well.

Again, thank you for  your support.  It is received well by me and my Platoon.

How's it going Sir,
 
Just wanted to let you know from me an my platoon that we were very grateful for the package you sent SFG Gorbet he was quick to pass out a few things to us an share the love lol. I had to acknowledge the fact you went out of your way for us. Being on the other side of the world away from family gets rough sometimes. But just small kind gestures like that make it slightly better. I really appreciated it.


Thank you,
       PV2 Johnson

We just received your care package here at the Pedro compound. We appreciate your recognition, thanks, and the especially the Girl Scout Cookies!

From all of us here at the 26 ERQS Pedros a big thank you. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.
