Install Party #2 5/5/13 11AM

Install Party #2 5/5/13
Here’s your second change to get your parts, mods and upgrades installed this year. I’ll be hosting it at my house on Sunday May 5th, starting at 11am, 7339 Edinborough Dr. West Bloomfield, MI 48322. I’m located North of 14 mile Rd between Orchard Lake and Middlebelt. (Take 14mile to Coach Ln. then turn right on Edinborough, follow the curve and I’m on the right side) I’ve got a 2 car garage with a two car wide drive, plus an extra spot on the side makes it 3 cars wide.

I have some basic tools. If you need specialty tools you should bring them or post your install here and ask if anyone has the tools you need.

I’ll have the bbq going with hot dogs and burgers, I’ve got some non alcoholic beverages as well. Feel free to bring anything else.

For the lowered cars…stay to the left when you turn into the driveway since the right hand side is uneven at the bottom.

Happy End of the World Day!

To a Z owner in Southeast Michigan, the sight of snow can make it feel that way! Have no fear! The GLZC will be here into 2013 to celebrate our 2nd Anniversary!

  1. In the next couple weeks, we’ll post up some details about meets into January and February. January will host the Detroit Auto Show. This is a good time to meet up, we can car pool in our winter rides and attend the show together. Might even think of some entertaining contests to do during the show. (Who can get the most photos of them posing with a model or funniest photo at the show, etc) We’d compare pics at dinner that night and post the winners. …
  2. We are overdue a trip to Double Action Gun Range. Hopefully we still have guns by late January! (Don’t go too crazy Californian Senators!) We can hit this in January also.
  3. A new indoor Go Kart track opened in Novi. Looking forward to trying that out! There are tons of great places in walking distance from there to grab a bite and a brew.
  4. February is the GLZC birthday and general elections. Post up if you are interested in running for office. Main Positions are President, VP, Treasurer, Web Master, Club Secretary. You can volunteer anyway you wish.

 

Have a very merry and safe holiday season! – Brian May, Club Treasurer

July meeting

It’s that time again for our monthly meeting!

This month we’ll be having our meeting at the Honeytree next Tuesday, July 24th @ 7pm.

George’s Honey Tree is at the intersection of Northwestern Highway, 14 mile and Orchard Lake Roads. It’s in a strip mall that doesn’t have any other tenants in there. Big lot so we can park together without any potential door dings.

Best way to get there from the East Side – 696 to Northwestern, just past 14 mile on the right. If you hit Orchard Lake Rd, you’ve gone too far.

From the South/West – Orchard Lake North just past 14 mile. Turn right into the Mobil gas station. The driveway continues and connects to the strip mall parking lot. You’ll want to drive around the speed humps by darting into the lot as soon as you can.

From the North – Middlebelt South, turn right on 14 mile. Turn Right on Northwestern Hwy, Almost immediately on your right is the lot. (You can take Orchard Lake instead of Middlebelt but the turnaround situation is a bit rediculous at that intersection).

If you’ve never been, they have great Greek food at a reasonable price. They don’t have alcohol but there’s a Champps across the street.

See you then!

Annual GLZC Picnic July 7th @ Kensington Metro Park!!

All,

It has been way too long since our last communication. We had some ‘password’ issues that were just recently ironed out. Previous attempts at a monthly meeting were abandoned as the email communications could not go out. So – enough with the excuses..

We’re here to announce plans for the next GLZC Picnic/Meet @ Kensington Park. This will be held Saturday 7/7 at Kensington Metro Park, Lot F. Come one come all.

Please reply or respond to the forum post link if you plan to attend.

New Membership Cards are in…

In the next couple weeks, each member will receive a new membership card. For those who just joined and were looking for their card, I apologize for the delay. You will have it soon and I will adjust the expiration date accordingly.

The original concept of the membership cards was noble but not practical. They had to be created online, member photo inserted, copied, pasted, adjusted to fit, printed on a color laser printer, trimmed and layed with the back side image, laminated and then trimmed down again.  Oye! I’m tired just thinking about it. The new card are more simple yet still look good. You’ll have to wait to see.  ;-)
