At our meeting on August 19 our own Ed Warner talked about the upcoming Concours d'Elegance on Hilton Head, showcasing hundreds of cars from all over the country. Included are some classic, distinctive and enormously valuable cars from the dawn of the automotive age. The event will be held October 29 through November 1.
We also welcomed Julie Kuhns from the Hardeeville YMCA to receive our grant to her organization, and Brad Thompson from the Chamber of Commerce Leadership Program.

Do you worry about Alzheimer’s? We do not have a cure for Alzheimer’s disease, but we must find one. Finding a cure starts with you. Every year the CART (Coins for Alzheimer’s Research Trust) Fund gives research grants focused on finding a cure for Alzheimer’s disease.
Have you given to the CART Fund this year? The CART Fund is dedicated to raising funds to provide “seed” money for cutting edge, high impact research in hopes of finding a cure/prevention for Alzheimer’s disease. The goal of the CART Fund is to encourage exploratory and developmental Alzheimer’s disease research projects within the United States. This is accomplished by providing financial support for the early and conceptual plans of those projects that may not yet be supported by extensive preliminary data but have the potential to substantially advance biomedical research. These projects should be distinct from those designed to increase knowledge in a well-established area unless they intend to extend previous discoveries toward new directions or applications.
