Chicago Region BMW Motorcycle Owners Assoccrbmw

At our March meeting we will recognize those who have gone above and beyond to make the Chicago Region a better club. We will do this after enjoying a catered dinner provided by the same restaurant that provided pizza for our December holiday party. We are encouraging members to bring a dessert as that has worked well in the past. Please feel free to bring loved ones along to share the celebration. You may have heard discussion of a weekend banquet in March, but that plan was not implemented, and the March meeting and Appreciation Dinner is on the regular day and place, but a half-hour earlier, for the March meeting. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that this change in plans has caused.

In addition to looking back, we will look forward by installing our new board. This will be the first meeting chaired by your new president!

Entertainment will be provided by ... You! I am collecting pictures of events through the year and will put together a slide show that we will run throughout the evening. This will not be a formal presentation, but if you hang out around the screen I'm sure you'll hear some stories about the events at which the pictures were taken. But, we won't have a show if you don't get pictures to me, so please take a moment and send me what you have. I did this last year for a presentation on the MOA rally and was really happy with the pictures I got. Now I need your help with the rest of the year.

I'm sure this is going to be a great evening and I hope that all of you can make it. Once again, the details are:

Time: 7:00 PM (earlier to chat and help.)

Date: Thursday March 11

Place:Elks Club, 711 W. St. Charles Rd, Elmhurst

RSVP:(708) 445-1420 or This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

President-Elect
  

In order to better serve, the board has formalized some existing committees and formed some new ones. We are seeking association members who are not already on the board to help. This is your opportunity to step forward and make the Chicago Region just that much better. The level of formality in committee organization will vary and it is up to respective chairs to decide if and when they meet and how to communicate to best meet committee goals.

Welcome to the Chicago Region BMW Motorcycle Owner's Association! That's a mouthful so I'll just abbreviate it as CR. I have written a "welcome to the club" letter that goes in the new member packets. I've tried to describe what we are about and to list some of the resources they need to know about. I'd like to share that information with present members as well so that you know what I'm trying to convey to new members. I also hope to update existing members on the club resources you should be aware of. Please read on (click 'Read More...' below) for the text of the message.
