I hope you all have had a safe and warm winter.   I look out the window today and see the sun shining, the snow melting and I think it will not be long before we get our cars ready for a great spring, summer, and show season.  I’m looking forward to it!

 

On Tuesday February 17 at 5:30 we will meet at Clara’s in Lansing (weather permitting) for a planning session for club events for the coming year.  On tap is our spring outing to Auburn Indiana to visit the three museums.  We have negotiated a group price for admission for the weekend and are working on a group price for a hotel.  Come help us finalize plans (many hands make the task easier!)

 

In June we plan to attend the Greenfield Village Motor Muster as a group.  If your car is a 1975 or earlier and substantially in stock condition, you can enter it.  This is a great time and I encourage you to attend either as a participant or as a supporter of the club members that are.  Now is the time to register go to their website for info and applications.

 

Later in the summer we will probably gather for a club picnic and drive.  We will discuss that at Clara’s on the 17th, too.  Come be a participant and make your suggestion for the location.

 

Please check the website (www.greatlakesvolvoclub.org) if the weather threatens to see if we have to cancel at the last minute.

 

See you at Clara’s!!

 

Tim Cox

President
