What a difference a couple of weeks can make as a chill is really in the air now.  I have actually started to think about putting the cars away for the season, what a sad thought. Our Halloween Hat Party Meeting was a great success thanks to Shari and Sandy for putting this together again.  Our next meeting is in Windsor at the DH on November 12, 2008, where you will be able to enjoy a nice price break on your food order! You can read about it in an open letter from the DH management that appears elsewhere in the newsletter. Hopefully we will see you there.
 
There were several events during October, see elsewhere in this issue for reports on them.  Our upcoming Annual Meeting and Elections will be held in February on the USA side of river this year.  We have had several people step forward to say they will run for office and we actually have a real election for one of the offices so far.  It is really important to step forward, your club always needs new blood to work on committees and to run for offices or be on one of the board appointed positions.  Please take a look at the next Can-Am Connection and see what positions we have.  Put your name in for one of them it is very gratifying really!
 
Our Holiday Gift Exchange will be at the December meeting at the Brass Pointe, but we have decided to try something a touch different this time and that is to have a Second Holiday Gift or Re-Gift Exchange in January in Windsor.  So now you have a great opportunity to give and get twice.  Or if you don't like what you got in December give it back in January ;)   Have twice the fun with two gift exchange meetings!
 
One other event that may be of interest to some of you is a visit to the GM Heritage Center.  The Jag Club has put this together and has invited the other area clubs to join them.  The date is set for Friday, November 21 from 3:00 to 5:00.  The center is only open weekdays from 8 to 5 by special appointment, and it takes 1 1/2 to 2 hours to view all the exhibits.  They tried to pick a time that would least interfere with people's work schedules.  The GM Heritage Center is located at 6400 Center Drive, Sterling Heights, MI. 48312.  It is just SE of Mound Road and 16-Mile Road.  They would like an estimate of how many are interested in going so if you are, please drop me an email to jzorn@mgcars.org.uk and let me know by November 17.  There is an admission price of $10 per person, which will be paid at the door by you.
 
See you at the meeting!
Jeff Zorn

Club President

web-editor's note:
The offices of President and Vice President are vacant due to the incumbents having reached their three-year term limit.  The current Treasurer and Secretary are now completing the first of their three-year term limit.  Election details will be posted shortly.
