Club Organizational Meeting needed
After talking with the other members that attended the March Dyno Day/Silver Dollar Races, we came to the conclusion that we need to hold a meeting with all club members that can attend. We need to get our club back on track. We have not had a news letter in quite some time, most of us are out of date on our dues, there has been little to no communication to members via email or our forum and it seems that the club is driffting apart.
We need to elect officers (At least 3-4 so no one person has to do too much). Open a club account for our funds (what little we have), Kick the news letter back off so floks will get something for the membership. This will have to include news from all of our membership as to what is happening in their respective area (cruises, shows, tech, etc). We also need to help our freinds in UK get their chapter going and include them in our news letter, ect. I have been as guilty as anyone for the lack of communication on the forum. My life has been very busy and I know the same can be said for many of you. We has a communication problem at our last event and tho it wasn't a major problem, we didn't wold up our end with regard to some raffle merchandise. While we did gather lots of nice stuff to give out thanks to Jake (our club sponsor who came up with a Type 1 DTM shroud, vidios, etc.), Herrell's Bug Parts, and the SEVWA (Thanks Kathy), and the raffle went well, we could have and should have had more stuff. We can leave things as they are. Or we can get things back on track. I would like to see things back on track myself, but that is only one vote. Please indicate what date/time is good for you and lets see if we can get a good meeting organized. :agree:

Amen brother!
Any Wednesday night is good for me. I think all of us that discussed it at Dyno Day are in total agreement, we just need to elect some officers and set it all in motion!

This will be an online meeting. I am off Wed., Thur, Fri. this week. I still don't know about next week as we are have to bid our off days at my work this week due to the layoffs that happen at the end of the month.

I'll be around...
This has been on my mind since late 2004. Quite frankly, I'm loosing interest in being a member of the gruppe. Geographical distance between members, being 300+ miles from the nearest get-together, and trying to complete a teidious, and expensive project by myself, all after 50+ hours of repairs in a normal work week have really curbed my enthusiasm considerably. This doesn't mean I've given up on the Poorsche project, and of course Sue will never give up her Bug. $$-wise, I'm in way too deep to shelve the whole thing, or part it out, and sell it off for less than half of my investment. That happens too often in the car hobby. I'll finish it as soon as I can, and will get some enjoyment out of driving it, most likely as primary transportation, along with the Toytruck. I can plan on meeting any evening this week.

Yes Joe it is folks like you that have been excluded. We can get input from you on what you are doing in your area or on your car(lots of good tech stuff going on there) and put it in the newsletter to share with the other members. It is not like being together but it will go far to bridge the gap and make people feel like they are included.
