Event Hosts:  Be sure to send your event information well in advance to both your Über Alles Editor, and your Webmeister.

 
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.

It's a remarkable story about a remarkable car. What's so special about it? Read on!

2013 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 here and 'like' us.

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.  Dan Phillips is the former, and Michael Betz is the latter.  We'll be sure to give your event the coverage it deserves!
