BMW ACA/CCA Issue
General Meeting, March 2000
The General Meeting to discuss the potential merger with BMW CCA has held on March 11th at the Community Center at Mercer View on Mercer Island. About thirty members were in attendance including most of the ACA Board. Keith Wollenberg, BMW CCA Pacific Region Vice President, and Scott Adare, President of BMW CCA's Inland Empire Chapter, were there to answer questions from a CCA perspective. Their insights were particularly valuable as both are members of our club too. The purpose of the meeting was to provide an opportunity for members to make comments and ask questions of Keith and Scott and ACA Board Members about the potential impact of merging with CCA. It was not the intention for either the ACA or CCA to make formal presentations of the issues already published in the Zündfolge. I provided some opening remarks which were followed by a few comments by Keith and Scott. We then followed a discussion agenda that included dues, finances, track events (the most lively topic), other events, and two clubs vs. one. Many in attendance found the meeting to be very helpful in finalizing their voting decision. Our thanks to Keith and Scott for spending the time to join us at this important meeting.
