Meet Your 2017 Board of Directors

Congratulations and a big “Thank You” to the club

members who have volunteered to serve on the 2017

Board of Directors.

Of course, pictures like the one on the right bring

questions about whether the election was influenced by

outside forces. The CCC Facebook page is investigating

allegations of Russian hacking. So far, no recount is being

considered, but someone named Hillary is considering a

run for CCC board next year.

The BOD monthly meetings are held the first Thursday of

each month and are open to all club members. Here is a

little information about the people who will fill the

positions for the upcoming year.

Kevin Reit, President

I was born in Sioux Falls South Dakota. I have worked in the flooring

industry for over 30 years. Our family moved to Omaha, for employment

reasons 22 years ago. I have always been interested in cars and have had

several Pontiacs over the years, but always aspired to own a Corvette.

When we had our two children, thoughts of that were put on hold.

However, I saved a few bonus checks and any money I could stash away

without the wife getting wise and after several years, bought a used 1996

coupe. My wife Jayne, thought I was just crazy for wanting to get a sports

car when the kids were in college, but soon she enjoyed going for rides in

it. Jayne worked at an optical shop and soon a Cornhusker Corvette Club

member drove up in his Corvette to visit their store. Jayne asked him

about his car and told him I had just bought a Corvette. He invited us to

join Cornhusker Corvette Club. I was hesitant, but Jayne insisted that we at least go to one of the

meetings. We attended one and really enjoyed the people in the club and felt very welcome. Soon, we

were members – since 2009 - joining in on the activities. Our first outing was a river boat cruise. We did

not have anything that indicated we were members of the club. When we went to sit with the group, we

were told we needed to be members of the club to join in – soon they realized we were new members

and we were more than welcome to participate in the activities.

3

It has been a great experience and all the members have been more than gracious in helping us with

racing, parades, car shows, road trips and anything else we have had questions about. We have made so

many friends. The Cornhusker Corvette Club has so much to offer and you can pick what you want to try.

Jayne and I would like to thank everyone that has made this experience so great and look forward to

many more years of great fun.

Ray Kennedy, Vice President

I retired from the Marine Corp after 30 years. That prepared me for my

next career…….20 years at the Omaha Public Schools. I think I received

hazardous duty pay at both.

I am now self-employed at CNR (Can Not Remember) Construction, and

still going strong (some times).

This is my second year as Vice President, and I really enjoyed being part of

the NCCC Convention in Omaha this year. I am looking forward to another

great year with CCC and a chance to compete with the convention car.

Tom Horeis, Treasurer

I was born in Omaha and raised on a farm where Scutt High School is

located now. I began my banking career as a part time teller while in

college. I served in the Army in Vietnam in 68-69 with club members

Gary Sondyj, Bill Cashell, and Tim Malloy’s father Warren.

Upon returning from Vietnam, I collected past due loans, repoed cars

and trucks, and made loans. In the mid seventies, I became the CFO

and Sr. VP and Director of the Operations of the bank. I oversaw all

departments that were not loan departments of the bank.

Besides accounting, I also dabbled in architecture in college. I designed

our Millard facility, and the bank at 132nd and Dodge, now known as

US Bank, and many other facilities and projects for the bank.

In the mid eighties, I joined six other officers in purchasing the bank. We also purchased two additional

banks, one in Haywarden, Ia, and Haysprings, Ne.

In the early 90's we changed the banks name in Omaha from First West Side to First Bank. In 1995, First

Bank Minn. came to Omaha. We had their name, so they had to buy us to get the name. That is when I

retired.

I am divorced, have one son Jeff, married to Kayla, and they have four children. Jeff is a 20 year member

and Kayla is approaching 10 years. Many of you know him as owner of National Senior Insurance, selling

Medicare Supplements and many other products for seniors thru many companies giving you many

4

choices. He has fifteen plus or minus employees and covers many states including Texas. They also own

Yutan Kids Academy in Yutan. The one area I helped him was designing his offices and swinging a

hammer, and paint brush. I am very proud of him. I would also like to say Thank You to a special lady,

Clara Manly, the mother of Mike, who trained me well as a teller and helped make all this happen.

Carolyn Horst, Secretary

My husband, George, and I have belonged to the Cornhusker

Corvette Club since April, 2010. We have owned four Corvettes but

only have two presently – a C7 and a C4. I just retired from a large

engineering firm. My interests are reading, sewing, quilting,

exercising and traveling. I have lived in Falls City, Lincoln and Omaha,

Nebraska. I went to school at Northwest Missouri State University

and University of Nebraska Omaha.

Chris Tooker, Membership Director

Chris joined Merrill Lynch in 2014 after three years in Union Pacific’s

Corporate Audit department. He is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™

certificant on a multi-generational wealth management team. He

graduated summa cum laude from Creighton University with majors

in financial analysis and economics. During his time at Creighton, he

led two teams to the national level of competition as President of

Creighton's Mock Trial program, mentored 60 students as a resident

advisor and managed a four million dollar portion of Creighton's

endowment with 15 other students. He remains active in the

Creighton Alumni Association, is the President of Kiwanis Omaha, Inc.,

and is on the board of directors for the Arthritis Foundation,

Community Health Charities, and the Cornhusker Corvette Club.

Chris resides in Omaha but travels back to Colorado, where he grew up, at least once per month to visit

family and clients. Additionally, he competes in quarter-mile drag races at Bandimere Speedway in

Morrison, Colorado with his father and grandfather. As a Corvette enthusiast, he attends or competes in

several car shows, meet & greets, and auto cross races throughout the year in Omaha and Colorado.

When Chris isn't in the office or at an auto event, he's likely in the gym, at a charity dinner, or making

new friends at a social outing.

Jerry Koraleski, Governor

I joined CCC in 1996. I have held numerous offices since then. My first

office, at that time, was called Activities Director. I served as

Newsletter Editor for nine consecutive years. I was elected West

Region Competition Director for five years. I was honored to serve as

CCC President for the last three years. Somewhere in the midst of all

that I was Summer Festival Director. What I‘m most proud of is being

NCCC Convention Director 2016. A new challenge lies ahead as I will be

CCC Governor for 2017.

Bill Cashell, Editor

My wife Kathy and I really enjoy the social aspect of CCC, and attend as

many events as possible. I am also on the Social Committee, since

Kathy is a Co-Director. We have made so many good friends in the club

and love the fact that people in this club don’t want to grow up just

because we have to grow older. This is my 3rd (and last) year as Editor,

and I appreciate the support and contributions that everyone has given

me. We have a C4 and a C5 (and an unmentionable VW Karman Ghia

convertible) and love to get out and cruise with friends. Did I mention

that we also love to cruise on ships? Especially in the Caribbean during

the winter. I am mostly retired, but continue to teach a few classes at

Metro Community College.

Don Angeroth, Competition Director

I taught auto mechanics at Lewis Central High School for 34 years. For my

retirement in 2005, I had 37 corvettes put on a show at the high school.

That was one car for each of the 34 years and 3 more to represent all of

the extra time put in during the years.

We joined CCC in 2000 and have been having fun ever since. I still keep

busy with my rental properties where I manage and to all maintenance

work, and with the club activities. I have been on the Board 12 years. Look

out for 2017.

6

Kathy Cashell, Co-Social Director

I retired this year after 30 years (and many name changes) with

Northwestern Bell / US West / Qwest / Centurylink. I thought

retirement would be quiet and relaxing, but thanks to CCC, it has

been anything but that. This is my 3rd (and final) year as a Co-Social

Director, and it has been a wonderful way to get to know so many

club members and be involved in all of the activities. The first year, I

was thrown into this quite unexpectedly (thanks to George Horst)

and Jayne Sainz was my wonderful Co-Director, mentor and friend.

This year Bob Edmundson is partnering with me and I appreciate

both of them so much. The social part of the club has grown so much

and having a Co-Director and committee to help is really important.

The committee has so many great ideas, and we look forward to

another exciting year in 2017. Bill and I have been married for 42 years, and we have 3 sons. We are

strong supporters of the Nebraska Humane Society, Hearts United for Animals and Precious Memories

Child Care. Precious Memories is a non-profit that cares for the underprivileged and special needs

children. This will be our 15th year of providing them with a Christmas party.

Bob Edmundson, Co-Social Director

I am from Omaha, and I have her for 61 years. I spent 3 year in the Army

and served one year in Vietnam. Carolyn and I and our 3 children lived in

Scottsbluff, NE for 6 years before returning to Omaha in 1981. I retired in

2014 after working in the Optical business for 44 years and the last 30 as

a wholesale Optical Rep with Pech Optical out of Sioux City. Iowa. We

have 3 married sons and 5 grandchildren, and we are enjoying our

retirement. In the winter, you can find us at Padre Island, Texas, trying to

escape the winter weather.

Ray Zimmerman, Public Relations Director

I am originally from St. Louis, Mo. and moved to Colorado in 1978 where

I started my import business of Home Accessories and Gift. My wife

Nancy and I met in 1981 and we were married in 1984. We continued to

run our successful business in Colorado until 1990 at which time we sold

our business to investors in Omaha and moved here. I continued to work

with the new owners until 2000 at which time I retired.

We have a daughter and son in law in Arizona, two grand children and

their spouses and four great grand children who all live in Omaha. I

7

enjoy golf and all the club events and socials and especially the great people Nancy and I have met.

Gene Gau, Summer Festival Chairman

I have served in various positions in the Cornhusker Corvette Club,

including most recent, Director of the 2016 NCCC convention. It is now

my pleasure to serve as Summer Festival director. Get ready to have your

socks knocked off. Rats, we already used that. If everything works out, it

will be a weekend to remember. If you're good at planning events, be

prepared to consider helping out. One more thing….lets each consider

this goal, to bring one new member into the club this year, so that more

people can enjoy SUMMER FESTIVAL.

Gene

Perry Dawes, Member at Large

I grew up in O’Neill, NE and graduated from Nebraska Wesleyan (Lincoln).

I was a Band Director 15 years in Stanton, NE, Wahoo Neumann and

Kearney H.S. I have been a licensed Real Estate Broker since 1974 (42

years - still active) and past President of Buffalo Co. Realtors, and Omaha

Area Board of Realtors.

My wife Linda and I have been married for 48 years. We purchased our

first Corvette in 2010 (1995 Dark Purple Metallic Coupe) and joined CCC

in Jan. 2011. Currently, we own a 2001 Torch Red Corvette Coupe, and

we have developed many wonderful friends through membership in CCC.

I was a Member at Large on CCC Board of Directors 2015, 2016, and re-

elected for 2017. I have been chairman for several CCC Shows and

events, and was instrumental in designing, building, and racing valve cover track and cars for 27 CCC

members. I enjoy driving Corvette in Low Speed and High Speed events.

8

Ron Hernandez, Member at Large

Ron retired from the Army after a career that included several combat

assignments. He formed a non-profit organization called Moving

Veterans Forward, and now dedicates a large part of his time helping

homeless Veterans in Iowa and Nebraska to get placed in homes. The

Veteran’s Administration out of Omaha notifies him of pending

placements and Ron begins to move them in and find the necessities

that they need. A large part of their endeavors is collecting furniture,

clothing and other household items. The main goal is to give these

veterans the boost they need to turn themselves around to become self-

sufficient.

Ron was first introduced to CCC when Moving Veterans Forward was

selected as a recipient of proceeds of a CCC Car Show. He was so impressed with the members of CCC

that he and his wife Kim joined the club. They have a C4 and a C5 convertible, and enjoy the social

activities as well as the competition events.

Spotlight: Moving Veterans Forward

The Toys for Tots event included the annual Small Christmas Tree contest. This year, the trees went to

veterans that Ron Hernandez has helped move into their new homes. Here is what Ron posted on

Facebook:

We will be moving 4 more Veterans on Tues, and all of the trees will be handed out as well. I just

wanted to tell everyone who made the trees for the Veterans Thank You and they love them.

They also wanted me to tell you God Bless and Thank You for thinking of them.

2 more Veterans got their Xmas Trees today and new homes.

The Ongoing Saga of Ralph

By George Horst

Older members of the club know about Ralph, who is a traveling trophy given out at the annual

awards banquet. So, this is really for the newer

members. Ralph is awarded to the person who

ends up in 21st place in competition points. This

past January, Carolyn Horst was the lucky

winner. I missed Ralph by only one point.

Ralph takes on a personality of his own

wherever he stays during the year. This year he

was very lucky and resided at the Horst

residence. Ralph took up residence in our great

room and partook in many of our activities. He

really liked Carolyn and got along great with

her. Ralph had a little trouble warming up to

me, but after I stuck up for him during the

convention we became best buddies. Let me

say, I would never say this about myself, so this

is in his own words. Ralph said I was the nicest, smartest, caring, loving person he had ever

met. Ralph learned how to cook pork hocks, pork shanks, loves sardine sandwiches and

acquired a taste for liver pudding. North Carolina is on his bucket list.

Earlier this year I had tried to get Ralph signed up for auto-crossing at the convention, but Gene

Gau said that would never happen because he did not have a NCCC card and was too short.

What a grouch! At the convention, Ralph dressed up as an elf and everyone thought it was

Chris Tooker. Amazing what a little make-up will do.

Ralph got his CCL in June and protected our home during several trips this past summer while

we were gone.

He spends a lot of his time on Facebook, so he is current with all that is happening in the club.

We really will miss Ralph this next year, but Carolyn’s request is that whoever wins Ralph at the

January awards banquet, really take care of him and keep him involved.

Toys for Tots

Christmas is for kids. But, for some families, there is not always enough extra money to buy gifts for

their children. The US Marines has been supporting the Toys for Tots drive for many years to help each

child have a Merry Christmas. Our resident Marine (and still a big kid himself) Ray Kennedy coordinated

the event and it was a fabulous success. Thank to everyone who brought toys and made the evening

great. Christmas Tree contest winners wer Erv Gunderson, Jayne Reit and Suzanne Blackburn.

Candy Wrapping & Holiday Lights Tour

This weekend was the annual Candy Wrapping event, followed by dinner and a holiday lights tour. You

may be thinking, why don’t we just buy candy that is already wrapped? Aha, this is special sugar-free

candy that goes to kidney patients that are often on dialysis. In the past, we donated to The Nebraska

Kidney Foundation. NCCC no longer supports the Kidney Foundation, but thanks to Nancy Bronner, the

tradition of helping these patients at holiday time lives on.

The tour of lights was on a large tour bus and Ollie the Trolley. I can say from personal experience that

Ollie’s heater was barely up to the task of the cold winter night, but the lights were spectacular!

It was election night. The electricity of

excitement was in the air for who might be

elected to be on the 2017 Board of Directors.

Would the vote be so close that the ballots

would have to be recounted? And recounted?

Will the six members who voted by the

absentee voting procedure make a difference in

the vote? (We’ll never know}.

It had been a well fought campaign with $0 put

forth. What will we watch on TV now that the

CCC campaign is over? Must we resort to videos

on FACEBOOK of the low-speed autocross

races? or to the photos on the “memory”

pages? Will our club go wild and out of control

whereby Bob Edmundson, our Sergeant at

Arms, will be called upon to bring order to the

meeting?

A reminder to shut off cell phones was

announced by Bob Edmundson and the 5

minute warning to begin the meeting was given.

President Koraleski led the members in the

Pledge of Allegiance and in a moment of silence

for our friends and families in need of prayers.

Jerry also announced that the cutoff time for

voting would be at 7:45p.m. tonight.

John and Brenda Salmans, owners of

“SERVICEONE”, generously provided a $50 gas

card for the 50/50 drawing. SERVICEONE is a

CCC Contributor and John and Brenda are CCC

members. Thank you, John and Brenda.

Kathy Gau read off the birthday names with the

drawing to be later in the meeting. Corvette

calendars are for sale and the order for the CCC

Member Club stickers for the cars have been

received. They are $6, come in a variety of

colors, can be purchased through George and

will be the “latest” accessory you’ll see on club

member’s cars when they come out of storage

in the spring.

David Ferguson made a motion to approve last

month’s minutes as published in the newsletter

and Cork Adams seconded it.

Bob Edmundson has also been on the very

active social

committee this year

therefore, in the

absence of Kathy

Cashell, Bob did an

overview of the social

activities that are

coming up.

CCC has the opportunity to be generous with

children’s gifts at the Toys for Tots dinner on

December 3 at Cascio’s Steak House. Cascio’s is

a CCC Contributor. A Christmas Tree contest will

be held as well and the Trees will go to Nursing

Homes and or to vets who are living at Victory

Village Apartments. Jerry Koraleski is chairing

this activity this year and will make the decision

as to where the trees will go. Put on your

dancing shoes for we will dance!

Of course, Bob reminded us that our Awards

Banquet will be January 14 at Cascio’s. Ray

Kennedy announced that there will be 31

“Hardcore” awards handed out this year The

“Hardcore” awards celebrate those members

who have been with CCC for 10, 20, 30, 40, 50

years. What a fantastic testament it is to CCC

19

for the outstanding club it has been over the

years!

Jerry is also working on having a representative

from St. Jude’s, our charity choice, at our

meeting. So there is always something for

everyone.

Marie Manz reported that there are currently

420 members at this

time, but the numbers

will go to approximately

370 when all the dues

are into the National

level of our

organization.

Tom Horeis gave a positive financial report and

he’s been working hard

with lining up menus

and budget costs with

the party venues. Tom

has a huge job, so when

you see him, thank Tom

for all the time it take to

develop the budget, pay the expenses, balance

the check books and deal with the IRS.

Don Angeroth is organizing a low-speed

“Icekona” for later in the winter. You’ll be able

to see the details on the calendar if the website

doesn’t freeze up. He’s also preparing (No

kidding) for the spring driving school in May to

learn how to low-

speed autocross.

President Koraleski

thanked him for

holding these

classes annually.

Note from

Secretary: We

wouldn’t have such

a strong program had it not been for the CCC

Members who came before us teaching us how

to auto cross and to them we say “Thanks”.

Jerry reported on the recent Governor’s

meeting which was held in St. Louis that four of

our members will be holding offices in the West

Region and national. They are:

Regional Competition Director (RCD) Gary

Brisbois

Treasurer Jon Manz

Membership Director Marie Manz

NCCC National Parliamentarian Kathy Brisbois

Gene Gau, 2016

Convention Chairman,

reported that National

Corvette Members are

still complementing

CCC on the great 2016

Convention. Gene also

reported that plans are

in the works for the

2017 Convention that will be held in Bowling

Green and that registration will be opening up

on January 1 on-line.

The 2018 Convention will be held in New

Orleans with a World Class Track available and

they know already that the hotel rooms will be

$87 a night.

Cincinnati, OH, Colorado Springs, CO and

Effingham, IL are all bidding for the 2019

Convention.

JB Benedict reported that there was a great

turnout for the Vet’s

parade. There were 31

Corvettes with 52

people from our club

in attendance. JB

thanked everyone who

has been bringing

newspapers for the animal shelter he supports

and he will not need to collect them again until

the February or March meetings.

Linda Hughbanks name was drawn for the

birthday winner and although she didn’t wear

the hat, she was a good sport and held the hat

above her head for a picture.

20

Neither Perry Dawes nor Chris Tooker,

Members at Large, had a report as there hadn’t

been any issues brought to their attention.

The 50/50 drawing was for $93 and won by

Craig Pandil.

Ray Zimmerman, standing in for Pat Swift, came

to the front wth

good news that we

have a new

Contributor,

Executive Shippers.

Leach Campers

Sales is no longer

interested in being

a contributor, however.

Craig Olsen was the winner of the SERVICEONE

gas card and Joan Harshbarger drew tickets for

the gift table until the gifts were all gone.

What was taking so long in the election

tabulation booth? President Koraleski talked

about the new Board of Directors being invited

to sit in with the 2016 Board of Directors

meeting in December at his home, and still no

results. To kill more time, President Koraleski

asked who would be bringing decorated

Christmas Trees to the Toys for Tots Banquet,

and still no announcement of election results.

Swervin’ Ervin got up and challenged the club to

beat his tree he has decorated for the Banquet,

and still no results. Jerry was suddenly showing

a pair of shoes he had to give away and still no

results!!!

Finally, the tabulation team made up of George

Horst, Nick Gau, Jim Blackburn, and Mike Manly

appeared from the tabulation booth. They

announced the 2017 Board of Directors as:

Kevin Reit, President

Ray Kennedy, Vice President

Tom Horeis,Treasurer

Carolyn Horst, Secretary

Chris Tooker, Membership Director

Jerry Koraleski, Governor

Bill Cashell, Editor

Don Angeroth, Competition Director

Directors

Ray Zimmerman, Public Relations Director

Perry Dawes, Member at Large

Ron Hernandez, Member at Large

Gene Gau, Summer Festival Chairman

Ervin Gunderson made the motion to adjourn
