The Club has decided to embark on
an exciting project to improve the appearance and utility of the BMW area at
Road America. Road America has designated that the new Badger Bimmer area will be close to our original spot outside of Turn 14 up the hill along the fence line.
The first phase of the
project involves the construction of markers that will define the area for BMWs
to congregate. This
phase has a target date for construction in the spring of 2007.
Future plans have the approval from Road America. The Board believes that it is important to increase our presence
at Road America and to encourage BMW owners and club members to congregate
together at Road America.
Club members who desire to become
a part of the BMW presence at Road America can help support the project through
the purchase of a commemorative brick.
The name of the supporting club member will be etched or engraved into
the brick. The bricks will be included
in the markers at the time of construction.
Club members may also show their
support through the purchase of a spot on a plaque that will be incorporated
into the project following construction.
The plaque will list the names of the supporting club members.
The number of commemorative
bricks will be limited to 50. The cost
of a brick will be $100. There will be
spots for 100 names on the plaque. The
cost of inclusion on the plaque will be $50.
These funds will help defer the cost of the construction of the project.
Club members who are interested
in supporting the Road America Project through the purchase of a commemorative
brick or spot on the plaque should contact Ryan Braithwaite at brahtw8@yahoo.com or contact another member
of the Board. In order to get these made to facilitate construction
as proposed, the cut-off date for the purchase of a commemorative brick is April 1st, 2007. The plaque is targeted to be erected in the Spring of 2007. The
cut-off date for the plaque will be April 1st, 2007.
Please show your support for this project and help
increase the Club’s presence at Road America.
