The Prairie Lady Newsletter Year End 2010
Happy Holiday’s
Welcome to the Mid-America region of the Rolls-Royce Owners Club.
Earlier this year we laid out a plan for the region that would create more opportunities for our member to participate in club activities. During the year we held events in Wichita KS., Omaha NE, Des Moines IA, and the fall technical seminar in St. Louis, MO. In addition we undertook the task of creating a dedicated region website ( www.rrocma.org ) for us to better communicate information to our members, update our calendar of events and activities as well as distribute our newsletter, The Prairie Lady. We encourage you to forward photos of your cars so we can display the wide variety of PMC’s in our region. Of course, your comments and suggestions are always welcome.
Our annual election of officers was held via ballot and I am pleased to announce the results.

Bob Andrews- Omaha NE. Bob will also serve as our website administrator
Mike Coup-Wichita KS.
Ralph Curzon- Bridgeton, MO. Ralph will serve as Vice President and Chief Judge
Simon Curzon- Independence, MO. Simon will serve as Vice President and Technical Director
Steve Davis-Des Moines, IA. Steve will serve as Vice President and Treasurer

We are finalizing our plans for 2011 and will publish those events in January. One of the services we intend to offer is the opportunity for those of you who have cars that are not running, we will dispatch a small team of technical experts to your home to get your car evaluated, provide you with a game plan for repairs or assistance to get back on the road and driving again!
We are looking forward to another year with great opportunities to get out and drive.
All the best to you and your families during this holiday season.

We couldn’t imagine a better event to wind down this incredible touring season than this service clinic. Those in attendance learned all about their cars from the top side and the bottom as each PMC was placed on the lift and inspections were made by all.
When you take care of an automobile of this magnitude it is invaluable to know what maintenance is needed as well as what you should start saving for as future attention will be required. This is the knowledge each of the members who brought their PMC to St. Louis left the session with.
The Hunter Engineering Campus where the service clinic was held proved to be as big a treat as the knowledge that was gained about our cars. A tour of the Hunter Classic Car Collection and Museum was included. This collection is one of the most important collections of RR/B cars in the world.
The Mid-America Region Annual Service Clinic was held October 22-24 in ST. LOUIS, MO.
And what a successful clinic is was!
We received comments such as
―"Excellent weekend gentleman"
- "very well done and great fun!"
- "What would we do without the Canadian version of Click and Clack!"

The friendships built during meals and of coarse evening cocktails may prove to be the most memorable part of the weekend. We hope that if you were unable to join us this year that you will put it on your calendar for next year. Imagine the comfort you will have from knowing that your PMC will be ready for trouble-free touring next season!
Thank you to Ralph and Simon Curzon for sharing their knowledge with us during this fabulous event.

The Mid-America Region website is up and available, but we need content. Please send pictures of you and your vehicle (s) to Jerry Sabin so we can begin to incorporate them into the website.
Do you have a vehicle or parts to sell? Want to buy a new vehicle or need a specific, but hard to find part. Let your editor know and we will include this in future publications and we will also place this information on our new website.
Please be watching your email and our new Mid-America Region website ( www.rrocma.org ) as we are planning the calendar currently and will be announcing a full year of events very soon.
