From Our President...
Members,
Happy New Year 2025! As we begin this new year and reflect on 2024, I’m excited to share that we had a very successful year as a club. Some highlights include record attendance at the Blessing of the Vettes and the Shaheen Car Show, which supported Ele’s Place. As a club, we became lifetime members to support the Corvette Museum and won the club participation award at Mackinaw. Throughout the year, we consistently held first place in competition points but ultimately finished in second place. This spring, at the Michigan Region Banquet, Capital City will have four men and two women recognized for their outstanding achievements.
This means the top spot and being Club of the Year in 2025 is within our reach. To achieve this, we need to recruit a few more consistent competitors for both autocross and non-speed events. As spring arrives in 2025, we anticipate hosting a rookie driving school for autocross, as well as a rookie Rally/Funkhana school. Both of these events are non-nationally sanctioned and are designed to be informative and low-pressure. If you're interested, I encourage you to join us and explore what these events entail. Additional details will be shared in the calendar of events and in the newsletter. These events are much more than just car shows! Many members from the Michigan Region achieved national placements in non-speed events throughout 2024 without leaving the region to compete.
A special note to our newer members: we will need officers in the coming years, so please consider taking on one of these roles. Community organizations need volunteers to continue their important work, and this includes our club. If there’s an event you’d like the club to participate in, you don’t need to be an officer to plan it. Feel free to reach out to our Social or Competition Director for more information, or contact anyone who has organized a previous event. We are always looking for new activities!
Happy 2025, and remember to wave!
