BMW CCA of Oregon Planning Meeting

[PrimeBMW]

Here is an email from Brian Cone............


Hello BMW Friends,



You can help to create a historical event in the BMW enthusiast community: the establishment of a BMW CCA Oregon Chapter! I know you will feel proud to be a charter member of this new organization.



Our first planning meeting will be held at the Village Inn Restaurant, 17070 SW 72nd Ave in Tualatin, next to the Bridgeport Mall. We will have a private section set aside for us on the left side of the restaurant as you walk in. This is the same place used by the PDX Mini Club for their monthly meetings. If you want to order dinner off of the menu, please arrive early as we will start our meeting at 7:00 PM. Check out the location at:

This is the time for us to make initial decisions about the startup of our new BMW CCA Oregon Chapter. Dedicated BMW enthusiasts are needed to get the ball rolling. As Steve Johnson told us at the information meeting, “A successful chapter has no formula, but needs money in the bank and many participants and volunteers.”



Subjects to discuss are:



· Selection of Pro tem officers (serving for 3 months before the first election):

o President

o Vice President

o Secretary

o Treasurer

o Officer at Large

o Activities Director

o Communications Director

· Selection of Appointed coordinators:

o Touring Events

o Track Events

o Technical Sessions

o Membership Coordinator

o Social events

o Newsletters

· General meeting location

· Chapter kick-off celebration

· Chapter logo design assignment

· Setup of committees

· Chapter petition with CCA national

· Next planning session date and agenda



Please let me know if you have any other subjects that we need to cover. Also, please RSVP to me if you will attend our meeting as I will need to update the restaurant with a headcount.



This is a very exciting time for BMW enthusiasts, as we have an opportunity to join 65 other CCA chapters and enjoy the many benefits of the CCA. We will finally have a state-wide club that will serve the needs of BMW enthusiasts from all over Oregon.



Looking forward to seeing a large turnout at our first planning session!



Thanks for your support!
