Cayman
Launch Event
Charles Van Wyk is inviting the Club to see
the new Cayman S. The event is Thursday evening, the 9th of May from
6:30 to 8:30 PM. Hors d'oeuvres and refreshments will be served. Please let
Brenda know if you plan to attend.
It's
A Blast!
We've done some interesting things as a Club. Activities that were a lot of
fun. Some of it was a blast. But not like this. For the first time
ever, we are having a sporting clays event on May 18. What is that? We
thought you might like to know.
Speedy
Visits Amelia Island
It's a remarkable story about a remarkable car. What's so special about it?

Track Events
Ted Blacklidge sent us a PDF listing a couple
of dozen track events in the area in 2013. Click
here to download the list.
Things change, of course, so be sure to confirm the dates and times before
you load up your trailer.
Fun
Pix!
Amber Door has sent us a Dropbox
full of photos from recent Club events. This includes the New Members
Luncheon, the fall color tour, the dinner drive to Bostwick Lake Inn, the
2012 edition of the Grattan Grand Prix, and the Tech Session hosted by Tim
Thatcher at Euro Autowerks. Lots and lots of great pictures.
Check 'em out!
More
Than Just Driving
Most WMR members understand that
our Grattan Fall Driver's Education event is about, well, driving. But there
can be more to the story. Much more.
Learn how this
annual event became a significant part of the lives of a father and the
daughters he loves.
Not
a DIY Project
Do you live in daily fear of losing a
windshield to a high-speed projectile? A rock? A baseball? A nine iron in
the hands of your crazed ex-wife? But we digress. Your Webmeister recently
lost his first windshield to a 70 MPH stone. Initially fearful, he
found the replacement experience to be totally positive. Read about his
experience here.
'Like
Us' on Facebook
Dan Phillips is dragging us into
the 2000s with a new Facebook page for our region. We expect we - and
you - will be posting pictures and contributing stories about your favorite
automobile and your favorite Club.
It's easy to connect. Click

Len
Will Have You In Stitches!
Seriously. The industrious
Len Gawron is helping members add the WMR logo to their favorite shirts.
Some of you may remember our
ill-fated attempt to partner with an on-line retailer who added our WMR logo
to a variety of items. Your webmeister believes he's the only one who
got a shirt before the firm folded.
So Len is stepping up to assist
the Über fashionistas in the Club. Details are
here.
Attention
Event Chairpersons
Maximize the notice your event
receives. Be sure to send your information well in advance to
both your Über Alles editor, and your Webmeister.
