Treasurer & Organization Set up

Gwen reports that the TRA account has been set up. We are still looking for a treasurer. We have a few more steps to complete to get the official recognition from the State including posting an announcement in local papers.  After that, it should be some pretty straight forward book keeping for our events.  Volunteers?  Stepnose on up!

Cortile Della Corsa

Bernie and Jim have been working on a a proposal to host the 2019 Alfa Romeo convention here in Pittsburgh.  The Cortile Della Corsa is the initial name for the convention. It translates to "Courtyard of Racing".  Below is an initial draft version of the proposal plans.  If anyone has any insights, opinions or ideas please pass them along to us in the comments!
