Summer Greetings from the MARC Board of Directors

The Covid-19 pandemic has certainly required most individuals and organizations to make unwanted and unpopular changes. The ever decreasing membership levels along with normal inflation have impacted the club’s financial health.  The MARC Board of Directors, after careful consideration, has decided that a modest increase of $5 in National dues is warranted.  New and renewal U.S. memberships will be $50 beginning with the 2022 calendar year.  Full details, including foreign rates, will be included in your renewal notice in the September/October issue of the Model A News.  We trust that this will not place a financial burden on any individual, but the increase will ensure the fiscal health of our club for the future.

IMPORTANT!!!  If you are a Regional newsletter editor or officer, PLEASE help us by sharing this message with all MARC members to whom you have access.  This will help the MARC Office staff greatly by reducing the number of replies needed for those who send in the wrong amount for their membership renewal.  So please, do this at your earliest convenience!

Thank you from your MARC Board of Directors.

Hello, everyone!  My name is Emily Ellway , and I am the Model A Restorers Club’s new Youth Coordinator.  I am very excited to take on the position, having grown up in this amazing environment!  As far as my love for Model A’s go, it is a strong love,  built on  a sturdy foundation.  I have been attending MARC National Meets since before I was even born with my first meet being in Cincinnati in 2001! I grew up in my parents’ (Kevin & Teresa Ellway) 1929 Roadster Pickup, and it will always have a special place

in my heart. Growing up, I enjoyed going to the summer meets and seeing all of our friend s, participating in the chassis rebuild and Hubley race , and enjoying all the other children’s activities!  I also spent many years helping my mom in touring class judging, which I really enjoyed.  The meet has always been one of my favorite parts of summer because it is my way of seeing our country one state at a time, and I am so excited to see you all at the National 2021 Meet in Oshkosh!

As far as introducing myself personally, I am Ohio born and  raised.  I would describe myself as being determined , outgoing and  adventurous.  I have just entered my first year  studying  at  Cleveland  State  University  in the hopes of pursuing a career in the pediatric medical field someday.  I graduated from high school  this  past May  as class  president  and  president of the National Honor Society, and I spent my free time working a part-time job and volunteering around town. I also spent a semester of my sophomore year  studying  abroad  in  Argentina,  which  was  an  amazing  opportunity! I enjoyed high school and growing up around cars of all ages , and I am looking forward to the next chapter in my  life.  I am very excited  knowing  that the next chapter includes continuing to be a part of MARC, and I look forward to spending time encouraging our youth to enjoy this amazing organization  with  all  it has to offer! If you  have any questions , comments  or advice, please reach out to me at YouthCoordinator@Model-A-Ford.org.  I am truly excited to start in this position, and see you all soon!
