2012- A PRETTY GOOD YEAR
 
THE NEW ENGLAND AMATEUR HARNESS DRIVERS CLUB HAD A PRETTY GOOD YEAR.
THE CLUB COMPETED IN 18 RACES, MOST OF THEM VERY EXCITING AS WELL AS UNPREDICTABLE.

IN ADDITION THE CLUB DONATED $1,850 DOLLARS TO A WIDE VARIETY OF ORGANIZATIONS (see below), AN INCREASE FROM LAST YEARS TOTAL OF $1,508. IT IS THESE DONATIONS, WHICH COME FROM RETAINED DRIVERS FEES, THAT WE ARE MOST PROUD OF. 

NOT TO BE OVERLOOKED FROM LAST SEASON WAS THE ADDITION OF THREE NEW  PARTICIPATING MEMBERS. SCOTT PRICE, DAVID ZUCKERMAN AND MARK EATON ALL BECAME MEMBERS OF NEAHDC AND WE WERE THRILLED TO HAVE THEM ABOARD.

 OUR YEAR CULMINATED WITH THE ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTY ON DECEMBER 1st WHERE THE CLUB AWARDS WERE PRESENTED TO THE TOP THREE DRIVERS WHO ACCUMULATED THE MOST POINTS.

THE WINNERS WERE
1st PLACE - JOHN SEARS
2nd PLACE - JOLENE ANDREWS
3rd PLACE - BILL ABDELNOUR.

2012 HAS COME AND GONE AND NOW WE LOOK FORWARD TO 2013 WITH HIGH HOPES AND GREAT ANTICIPATION OF WONDERFUL THINGS TO COME.

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND STAY WELL.
    BILL ABDELNOUR
        PRESIDENT NEAHDC
