NEXT MEETING IS May 3rd, 2011 AT 7:00 AT REA MOTORS, PORT JERVIS, NY BIO-Submitted by Marie Nazzaro My earliest memory of being fascinated with a car was when I was a teenager I saw a 58 Chevy that really caught my eye. It was about that time that I also became interested in Corvettes. Some of my first cars were a Corvair, and a Trans Am. I would have to say that the Trans Am was my first performance car. Today I am retired and love to go to the gym and enjoy socializing. My most memorable car story is not one that had a happy ending for my Trans Am. I was traveling North Bound in my Trans Am when someone came south bound and collided head on. For me the car hobby is a past time that allows me to travel and meet new people. Presently Ray and I own a 1994 Corvette. We got involved with PMCC in 2009 because of the fellowship that is within the group
