and the Training Hoe goes to...

[Texascwgrl]

This is a letter from Old #7

Hey Everyone,

First and foremost, Laurie and I really wish we could have been there, but there will be other GTGs and we will be there next time.

Now, on to the storied tradition in CAFCNA which is passed on year after year.  After having Heidi for the past year, I now completely understand why Shel had a tough time letting her go.  Heidi is a very important mascot in our club.  What she is NOT is a plastic "hoe".  What she is, is a symbol of what it takes to be a member of CAFCNA.  This takes on a lot of different meanings to a lot of different members,  but what is constant,  is what BOO stated, " The recipient of the Hoe is a new member whom we deem to show drive, enthusiasm, and generosity towards others in the club".  The Hoe is to be brought to ALL GTGs (local or national) with pictures as proof.  You must take care of your Hoe, treat her right, and the most important rule of all is NEVER, EVER LEAVE THE HOE UNATTENDED or there will be h3LL to pay!!!  (I learned my lesson the hard way... thanks Shel).

To get to the point, the person selected by the members of the Heidi Hoe Huddle, is a member who has exemplified the above qualities and is deemed worthy to Pimp the Hoe...

Kevin aka Kevmack!

Kev, represent the Northeast as I have done and remember to treat Heidi right.

Frankie, #7

[TheBeast]

Not really.  I came up with that a few years ago when she was in my possession.  I like the TV show "Home Improvement" and the neighbor always addressed Tim by saying "Heidi Hoe".  I liked it and it stuck.

Ok that clears that up. Interesting how thing start.

I did not know that ... BUT I do remember you getting the "Hoe" at MCM 

[Old No.7 Avalanche]

Heidi Hoe Neighbor #7. Just a quick recap Kev. Getting the Hoe is not a bad thing. To get her means that you being one of the newest and fastest rising members, Show a great dedication and enthusiasm towards this club(There are others but we can only choose one).So getting her just means that we appreciate all that you've have done. so with that short story outta the way, Enjoy your new title as the "pimp" of Heidi. And remember keep your eyes and ears open. A) so you can pick out the next Vic..  Um I mean "pimp" for the next torch passing

How long do I get to keep her for? I got some plans for her. 1st plan is to get her in the Ladies of the avy calendar.

Sounds good. TCG told me its coming with my t-poop. I got a photoshoot for my Auto teams website at the end of Aug so I'll ask the model to take some pics with her.

wouldnt that be someone else holding Heidi..  mmmm  thought that was against the rules..  lol  Especially if there is a PIC of someone else holding her..      I can hear Boo now....

Well I still need to find out the rules. but it would kinda be like my Hoe holding my Hoe. But I'll have my truck hold it in the pic then.

[KevMack]

I just got the Hoe!!! She looks like she has been through alot!!! But I was thinking (while holding her) I wonder where she has been. So I came up with an Idea as long as it is ok with "The Heidi Hoe Huddle". You guys know how she has the hole towards the bottom of the handle? What if we had a key chain of each state she has lived in. Maybe even write each persons name on the back of the key chain then you know everyone that has ever had the Hoe.

What you guys think? I would need you to pick out key chains and mail them to me but I think it would be cool.

[Hugz]

I think that hole used to be for a lanyard that the mister or mademe used to carry her aroudn their neck with..  I take it she doesnt have that anymore..  I do like the thought of the GTG state idea though.. 
All the above is of course null and void pending the decisiion, of Boo, Jeff, Shel's and Frankie..

Southern Nights in '06, I'm sure you guys remember this night albeit a bit blurry   

[Shels Land]

I like the keychain idea 

[KevMack]

I like the keychain idea 

Cool, I just need everyone else from the Heidi Hoe Huddle to agree. But you can find a nice keychain with your state and sign the back of it with a marker in the time being. I think a keychain would be lite enough to come reg mail. 

[Old No.7 Avalanche]

I'm in I like it #7

[KevMack]

Cool, bring me a New York keychain to the GTG if you come. Heidi will be with me.

Well thank you, that makes me feel good. I wanted to take some pics last night to show that she was safe but my GF had the camera and got home late. But I'll get some soon. I put her on my trophy shelf to help bring me good luck.

[Texascwgrl]

AND I am sure she will   

[BigC Mich]

Congratz on the Hoe Kev!!!  We miss her in Michigan!!  I know she is in good hands!!   

[Sirshopolot]

Treat her well 

[KevMack]

Thanks everyone 

[KevMack]

My 1st GTG sence getting "Heidi" here are some pics...





Also #7 gave me a awesome Keychain from NY for her and I added a MA one. I really want to put everyone that has had her state on it. If you can PM me and I'll give you my address or if you don't care what the keychain looks like that will rep you then PM me your state and I'll buy one online. She looks awesome with the keychains on her, ask #7.

[Old No.7 Avalanche]

Yup I can totally vouch for that one. (awesome Idea Kev ). He is taking very good care of and I gave him the lo down or the Heidi rules #7

[Strobin'01]

My 1st GTG sence getting "Heidi" here are some pics...

Treat her well.  BTW......Nice shirt!

[Texascwgrl]

Yeah, NICE shirt!

You should take a close up of Heidi with her new keyrings 

Thanks for posting the pics Kev 

[Flint4x4]

Hey KevMack, nice truck (it looks alot like mine) cladded ABM with hood scoop and German license plate   

If Shels doesn't send you a keychain from Michigan I will, I can find a good one without leaving the house.

To really respect my truck you got to see the inside and all the airbrush and little details.

But no one seems to have intrest in sending me a keychain. I'll have to get #7 on them.

I think I have a few keychains shaped like the Michigan mitten, Shels had the Ho so it's her choice first.

Goodmark ramair hood, blue bowtie, black tefllon wheels, black waag bumper guards match black roofrack.
Only chrome is the Flint4x4 europlate holder and Chevy powerbar in front, don't think I have many little details 

I'll probably lift mine eventually, we started with the same basic truck but opposite directions with mods.
Doesn't mean I can't appreciate street, only means I'll take my trucks places you wouldn't dare take yours 

[KevMack]

I wanted to show how good she looks with the key chains. She is still missing some. Also on one of the key chains it has the meaning of her.

[myscndfvrtride]

[Shels Land]

I was trying to take a readable picture of it, but it is pretty much the speach that #7 wrote............................

GREAT pics!  Nice to see this thread still being updated 

[KY_BOB]

Same here.  Shoot me a PM with your address and I'll get you one from Kentucky.  She did reside at my house for a little while.  It's the least that I could do for her.
