DOWNTOWN OSSEO, MN • 9–3 IN THIS ISSUE SPRING KICK-OFF UPDATES •JDC MOTORSPORTS • LOTUS EUROPA ROAD TRIP OUT AND ABOUT • 2016 EVENT CALENDAR https://www.facebook.com/groups/intermarque/ InterMarque Monthly, May 2016 PAGE 3 INTERMARQUE SPRING KICK OFF UPDATE KICK-OFF CHAIR JOHN ENGSTROM On a Clear Day you can see Osseo From Here! Well, it’s getting closer by the day. Get ’em fixed and polished and “Bob’s Your Uncle” they’re ready. Just don’t ask me about mine and we’ll all get along. But first a couple of things about the show. I have included a map (on the next page) of Osseo which shows how to get there from highway169. In short, you get off on 85th and then go take a right on 169. You will need to take a right turn on 1st Avenue N.W. which is the next street after the stop light. Go up 1st and turn at the entrance sign. Don’t forget a donation to the food shelf and a few bucks for the Girl Scouts People’s Choice Award voting buckets. This Saturday, at our breakfast meeting, I will be asking for volunteers to help out with the information and registration tent as well as people to hand out the goody bags and direct cars into the parking spots. The more volunteers we get 2016 SPONSOR CLUBS the less time everyone has to help out…See how nice that is. Lotus Owners Oftha North (LOON) • Alfa Romeo Owners I am going to ask each club for two volunteers (except for the Borgward Club Club, Stella del Nord Chapter • which only has two members) and will send out a sign up sheet for it. If you MN Austin-Healey Club • Citroën cannot make it to the breakfast meeting, you can contact me directly and I will Club of MN • Jaguar Club of MN • Mercedes-Benz Club of America: fit you in. Twin Cities Section • Metropolitans from MN • In other news, I have gotten a hold of the Japanese Antique Motor Cycle club MN United Minis (MUM) • and have invited them to give us a try this year. MN MG Group • MN MG T Series • MN Triumphs • Vintage Sports Osseo gave us a pretty good write up in their city newsletter “Osseo Outlook” Car Racing (VSCR) • North Coast and they have some photos of last years show as well a nice article about the Borgward Club show. Just a few more arrangements to make and we are ready to go. I have set up the SATURDAY meeting dates for the 2016 SKO We are talking about having a car show in the parking lot at Elsies sometime in meetings and they are as follows. July because it will be their 50th anniversary (I probably have that wrong, but they have been open a long time.) When it gets firmed up I will let you know. • NOVEMBER 21: ELSIE’S Also, as of this time, I have not made any progress on the fall Apple Orchard • JANUARY 9: ELSIE’S car show but I will keep plugging at it and see what happens. • FEBRUARY 20: ELSIE’S In the future, we have been talking about putting together an InterMarque • MARCH 12: ELSIE’S Calendar for next year. It will not be the usual calendar since our car season • APRIL 16: ELSIE’S starts in May, so we will make it from May 2017 to April 2018 instead. I was • MAY 7: ELSIE’S going to ask each car club for a picture to show on the calendar. All meetings will take place after Next year will be our 25th anniversary of the Spring Kick Off and I am already 8am breakfast. Roughly 9 am. starting to plan for that.
