BMW Car Club Western Cape

Hi guys

As some of you might or might not know, Grant (Carbon130) has been promoted to Club Chairman of the Western Cape chapter of the BMW Car Club of South Africa.

The guys in JHB have seen this area as being full of potential to grow the club,and I have to agree with them. The turn outs we've had at the last few events has been brilliant, and I think this is a sign that we can pull together a well organised, and well run Club.

We would do events that would include things like show and shine days (until we get a big enough membership to do full concours days), where you would be able to bring the family, activities for the kids etc, the breakfast runs,potentially track days (we will have to discuss this in length) and various other activities. Having been a member of the BMWCCG before, I can attest to the well run and coordinated days that they put together,and living in such a beautiful part of the world (let alone South Africa) I reckon we have the potential to do some wonderful stuff as a club (besides for us "out of towners" it's a great way to meet people :joy:)

So in a nutshell, what I am trying to get at is that let's get up and support our local club and make a success of it. The more successful it becomes the better the events and activities will be!

Thanks for mentioning it Morgan. I agree with your ideas above.

For those that didn’t know I got nominated at last weeks committee meeting. And Fuzzy as the Deputy.

I am going up to JHB this Saturday (31 Aug) for the BMW Clubs Africa general meeting and to introduce myself to the guys up there.

Either next week or the week after I am gonna have a meeting to elect new committee members. At the moment there is 4 members, we need at least 7 to 10. To be on the committee you have to be a paid up member.

The current committee is:
Grant (Chairman)
Fuzzy (Vice-chairman)
Charles (Twinz)
Morgan (Bugger)

Guys,we have a great opportunity here to get something really cool going. We are going to do our level best to get as many members as we can so that our events can be memorable.
Also be looking at dealers who will benefit out of it and with whom we can put together good relationships (like building on the one Grant has with SMG).
There is lots of potential. I think it would be a great idea to incorporate our MINIons as well,they are an important part of the package that is the BMW presence in the Western Cape, and their support has been outstanding.

Zabbo,we are going to make the club as active as we can. However, this does depend on participation from members! The more members we have turning out,the more successful the club becomes,the more organised events we can have! It's all up to us as members and lovers of the brand to make it work!:thumbs:
