To the Old Timers of the Connecticut Valley Chapter,
As the Curator for the BMW CCA Foundation, I could use your help with the Archives. I would like to add a collection of newsletters from your CVC chapter to our Archives. At some point, one of your long time members donated a bunch of stuff to the Foundation Archives. In that donation were many issues of the DZ. There are several missing issues going back to 1977. I don't have any issues of the DZ before Volume 5 #4 August 1977. Is there a member that has been around for some time with the chapter that might have saved back issues of your newsletter? Would you be willing to donate these issues to the Foundation to complete our set?
Please contact Michael Mitchell at
or 864-329-1919 if you can help. Feel free to contact me if you are also a member of other BMW CCA Chapters with back issues or if you have other automotive / motorcycle items that the Foundation might be interested in. Sorry, but I have all the Roundel magazines that I need, so please don't contact me about those. However, I am looking for other car / motorcycle magazines collections to fill in missing gaps in our collection. Thank you for your help with this project.

Hi All:
I thought that this would be a good item to publish in your respective Websites and Newsletters

ALLCON,
I'll be doing Real-Time Tech Talk With Mike Miller (tm) at The Vermont House, Wilmington, VT, Nov. 2-3, snow or shine.
The Vermont House is an inn, restaurant, and tavern dating from 1860 in Wilmington, a nice Southern Vermont town. Respectfully suggest chapter-wide e-mails.
It's an informal impromptu event, which is not BMW CCA sanctioned or affiliated. I'll be there all day, both days, available to answer tech questions and meet with the members.
Lodging is available at The Vermont House (www.thevermonthouse.com) as well the Old Red Mill http://www.oldredmill.com/ and probably plenty of other places in and around Wilmington.
If it works out, this may wind up being an annual event.
Best regards,
Mike Miller
