2014
This time of year makes me think of spending quality time with the family during the restful spring break period. I hope that you and your family enjoyed your time together. On Groundhog Day, Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog did not see his shadow and predicted an early spring. Next time we will depend on the magic 8 ball as we have yet to see the first of spring. Speaking of spring, our Annual Dinner Golf Outing on May 15th and our 106th Annual Dinner on May 16th are fast approaching. The dinner will be held in the International Ballroom at the Chicago Hilton Towers. The Club has a limited number of discounted rooms reserved at the hotel and they are going fast. I have mine, do you have yours? Our guest speaker that evening is the distinguished former Navy Seal Team Six Leader Joe Mann. His presentation should be very interesting as he was involved with training the Seal Team Six warriors who took down the hated terrorist Osama Bin Laden. Now, more than ever, it seems appropriate to be aware of threats from abroad. Joe Mann will provide insight on past, current and future threats that face our nation. Once again, this year’s annual dinner program will make advertising available to those who wish to promote their company’s services. Many of you may have already been contacted by Bruce Betts about placing an ad in the program. If you have not been contacted, but would like to discuss advertising opportunities, please call the office and we will pass along your request. On April 25th the Education Committee along with the U.S. Mexico Chamber of Commerce will hold a joint Executive Briefing and Luncheon on “U.S. Mexico Trade” at the Wojcik Conference Center of Harper College in Palatine. If you do business in Mexico, or are thinking of doing so, this is a must event to attend. Please make your reservations early as this will most certainly fill up. During lunch, Gabe Forir, chairman of the Scholarship Committee will present the awards to this year’s scholarship recipients. I look forward to seeing you that day.

Welfaregordon A. Thoman – Honorary member and retired Midwest Advertising Manager for Traffic World passed away on February 6 at the age of 88. Mr. Thoman joined the Club in 1964 when he was the Midwest Advertis-ing Representative for Traffic World. He began his career in advertising after returning from WWII, where he earned a Purple Heart in the European The-ater. He worked in the industry in Chicago for 50 years. He sold advertising space for The Chicago Herald American, The Hospital Journal of the Ameri-can Hospital Association, Mill & Factory Magazine and spent the remaining 25 years as the Midwest Advertising Manager for Traffic World. Mr. Thoman retired in 1989 at which time he was elected an honorary member. However, his retire-ment didn’t last very long and he returned to selling advertising for Transport Topics and then Progressive Railroading Maga-zine. He retired for good in 1996 at the age of 72 and spent his remaining years reading, playing golf and spending time with his wife Barbara, his four children and seven grandchildren.
