I’m Gwyn Estrella and this is my first year as Chairman of the Finance Committee. I’ve been cruising and swinging with HAN on and off for quite some time. I’m not a native of Nevada; however, 46 years in the Reno area makes you feel like one. I became a member and car participant eight years ago which was the same time my ’55 Thunderbird got back on the road. I’ve worked what was pre-registration during the actual event, parked cars in downtown Reno @ 05:30 am on Saturday Show-n-Shine. When pre-registration went away, I joined the Finance Committee of which I’ve been the Assistant Chairman for three years.

Our committee does lots of other things than just count beans, so if you would like an inside or outside job just come to one of our meetings. The Finance Committee works primarily at the Reno Sparks Livestock Events Center (Swap Meet) and Reno Sparks Convention Center (Silver Auction). I’m really looking forward to meeting all you guys and gals. If you didn’t get to make the Bowling Party in November, please show up at the James Dean Birthday Party in February, so we can find out what you’ve been up too since our 21st happening. See you soon.
