EDITOR BLOWS OWN HORN!
WORDSMITH WINS 2010 NEWSLETTER EXCELLENCE AWARD; MANY STUNNED BY NEWS

by John Barry - Editor, The Goddess

The rumors are true: at the recent Grand Nationals in Kansas City, The Goddess won the 2009-2010 award for Newsletter Excellence.

OK, that’s the Jack Webb ("just the facts, sir") version. In all honesty, I had no clue this was coming. I’m honored, proud, and - yes - humbled to receive it.

This is in no way a one-person award. The Valley Forge Region has intriguing members who drive head-turning classic cars and participate in fascinating activities, and are willing to volunteer their accounts and pictures of same. All four of those are absolutely vital: subtract any one, and the newsletter would be as exciting as Ben Stein reading an insurance policy aloud. Yes, it’s a cliché to say that this is your award also, but it’s true for the reasons I just mentioned. You provide the news and events, and I record them as they happen.

It’s also a challenge: what does one do for an encore? It’s not right - or fair! - to rest on one’s laurels. I’ll look for new angles, feature possibilities, and the like. At the same time, (cliché number two coming up) this is YOUR newsletter also, since it chronicles the life and times of all of us in the Valley Forge Region. Thus: if there’s something you’d like to see, speak up and we’ll give it a whirl. Everyone has the right to contribute.

Cliché number three: thanks to all of you for all you’ve done and all of your support. And that’s one cliché that is nothing less than twenty-four carat truth.
