Career and Technical Education Center Tour

Thursday, April 17, 2025, 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM

Yavapai College Career and Development Center

220 Ruger Rd., Ste 1, Prescott, AZ 86301

Club Excursion to Yavapai College By Don Halford

Our visit to the Yavapai College School of Career and Technical Education campus began with a nice drive through Jerome on the way to Prescott Valley. We stopped at Lindo Mexico Restaurant. Thankfully we arrived early, by the time we left the place was packed. Always a good sign. The food was delicious. Everyone truly enjoyed their meals. On to the campus. 

WOW! That’s the one word I can use to best describe the Yavapai College School of Career and Technical Education campus. I was so excited I wanted to sign up for class on the spot. The campus is huge and the possibilities are endless. The College offers training for welders, mechanics, machinists, gun smiths, painters, autobody repair people, air brush artists, carpenters and graphic artists to name a few. A huge thanks to Jim Converse and others who had a hand in making this outing a huge success.

I would thoroughly enjoy training there for many years. The equipment was second to none, lathes, presses, drill presses, CNC machines, several types of welding machines, two paint booths, robotics, 3D printers, and a few things I didn’t recognize. This school is providing their students with first class training to succeed in today’s competitive environment. 

St. John Vianney Car Display

Saturday, April 26, 2025, 10:00 AM until 12:00 PM

180 St John Vianney Ln, Sedona, AZ 86336

This has become a favorite event of SCC members. It is a casual car display for the St. John Vianney Catholic Church. They have invited us every year, and they are so happy to host our cars and our members.

St. John Vianney Catholic Church Car Display By Jim Schubert

Club members joined other auto enthusiasts on April 26th to show off their “pride and joys” for each other and congregation members that stopped by. Also, the cars delighted a bus-load of youngsters from New Mexico that arrived for a retreat activity with the church. The reaction of the young admirers and knowledge of mechanical systems like turbos, multi-piston brakes and (Don, smile now) manual transmissions provided hope that the automobile is not dead to the world, yet.

Verde Valley Assisted Living Car Gathering

Saturday, 06/07/25 @ 10a

Come join the fun and brighten peoples' day! Verde Valley Assisted Living facility is inviting car enthusiasts to display their cars. The facility has a number of residents that are so appreciative to have the opportunity to get out and experience viewing "special" cars.  There will be refreshments provided by the facility. This event follows the Coffee N' Cars get together at Fire Creek in Cottonwood. So come out for great fellowship at Fire Creek. Enjoy great food/coffee and see some special cars. Then motor over to Verde Valley Assisted Living and do something special for the otherwise shut-in residents.  Fire Creek Address: 677 E. Mingus Ave., Cottonwood AZ 86326. Feel good and make someone's day!

We were really impressed with the organization of this event. We thought it was just a car display. Little did we know the assisted living facility had voting and trophies organized and ready. Some of our members won trophies! Good on you.

Copy of Article from July 2025 Tire Tracks:

If you haven’t put a smile on someone’s face, you haven’t joined us for an assisted living or hospice car show. On June 7, 2025, the Club brought a variety cars to share with residents at the invitation of the Verde Valley Assisted Living Center in Cottonwood. Individuals, many of whom gave up driving some time ago, don’t get many chances to see fun cars and chat with the owners. With the attendance of some Cars-and-Coffee regulars, 34 vehicles showed up to engage the residents.

The facility hosted with trophies for a variety of entries, some of which like “Best Paint” and “Best Interior” demonstrated how different and yet creative a car show can be for participants. See the photos to get a flavor for these events and try to join the club at its next similar function.

Annual Picnic

Guest Speaker: Ed Rose | Topic: Sedona Airport

The August Club Meeting…by Jim Schubert

in the Sedona Library introduced club members to Ed Rose, the Sedona Airport Manager, who massaged the facility into the number one airport in the country. I kid you not. It would seem all he had to do was build more taxiway, put in new LED lighting to reduce power consumption, fix service roads, improve facilities for fighting forest fires (a large water tank), improve relations with police, military and forest service aircraft operators, give the town’s aircraft owners more space to park, help the neighboring hotel with expansion and find the money for all these projects. He’s even negotiating with a famous actor to get a WWII fighter plane on display for Wings and Wheels (The Sedona Car Show)! Well done. And, he was entertaining to listen to.

Poker Run to Payson

Date and Time: Thursday, November 6, 2025, 10:00 AM until 5:00 PM

Location: Crosswinds Restaurant, 800 W Airport Rd B, Payson, AZ 85541, USA

Best poker hand wins! In the event of a tie, we will do "Show Low." Where the low card wins. The winner will take home a pie of their choice. Since we will be using multiple decks, it's possible you may have duplicate cards in the same suit. For example, if you have two 10-of-diamonds, the hand will be counted as a pair of tens. There will be more than five stops. So, at the final stop, you will have to discard cards of your choosing down to a five-card hand. There is a $5.00 fee per hand. If you want to participate in the drive, but do not want to play poker, there is no fee. GPS coordinates for each "pictured" location will be provided in a separate email. The driving event is a shotgun start from your house between 9:30 AM and 10:00 AM (Nov. 6, 2025). Do not leave earlier because the dealer will not have any cards for you to find. Try to time your drive to arrive at Crosswinds between noon and 12:30.

About this event: Join in a fun drive involving intrigue, chance, food, and great fellowship. The drive will involve locating a pictured location along the route. Once you find the location, there will be a cache containing envelopes. Select one envelope per location. Do not open the envelope. The envelope will contain a playing card. Once at the final location, where we will have lunch, "call" and display your hand (five cards).

Post Event Comment: Seventeen intrepid SCC high rollers took to the road on November 6 on a poker run to Payson, Arizona. Great time for all! Wonderful weather -- just right for putting the top down and opening windows to let the breeze through. Lots of fun searching for pictured locations. A few of us backtracked, but all in all, we all found the spots and picked up our cards. One pictured spot was not found. Would you believe the wire-airplane was missing?? I believe it was foul play by a rival car club!! Not! One of the most talked about locations was the Strawberry School House. Great Charm, and what a hidden gem. At Crosswind's Restaurant, we discarded down to five cards, and Robert and Nancy Michels took the pot—a pie of their choice.
