<font color="#953734"><b>Hello:<br><br>I thought that it might be a good idea to send out an early e-mail message to let y'all know that Kiyoshi Hamai of the Golden Gate Lotus Club (GGLC) had reached out to me and the (Seattle, Washington-based) Evergreen Lotus Car Club (ELCC) a while ago to see if we were interested in "Hosting" the 2013 West Coast Lotus Meet (WCLM) and (after conferring with the various officers & special volunteers who help run the ELCC), I told him yes we were!<br><br>During the past month or so, Kiyoshi and I have come up with the beginnings of a Plan for what we think is going to be a really fun, multi-day 2013 WCLM that will include: a Welcoming Cocktail Party & Dinner at the "Host Hotel/Motel" the first night; a visit/tour of Paul Allen's Flying Heritage Collection (which is a very interesting collection of mostly operable WWII airplanes and tanks); a traffic cone-based autocross; a fun buffet-style dinner at a very nice
nearby casino; part of one day at the Society of Vintage Racing Enthusiasts (SOVREN) Vintage/Historic Races at Pacific Raceway; a fun tour, Lotus Car Show and bbq at Griot's Garage in Tacoma; a dinner & awards ceremony in the newly-opened LeMay - America's Car Museum; a few connectingly enjoyable drives-in-the-country to get us from place-to-place; etc... all of which will occur during the days of Thursday, July 4th thru Sunday, July 7th.<br><br>So, mark your calendars and talk this up within your local Lotus Car Club and related Lotus community because we'd really like a lot of you to be participants in this next summer's West Coast Lotus Meet.<br><br>Of course, there will be more detailed information and probably a web site set up in the near future (for registration, etc.), but I thought that at least a few of you might like an early "heads up" regarding this event which is being planned for next summer.<br><br>If any of you have any
questions at all about any of this... please feel free to send me an e-mail or give me a call.<br><br>And, please feel free to "forward" this e-mail message to anybody you think might be interested in this information.<br><br>Doug Jackson, Chairman of the ELCC<br>(206) 300-9130 <br></b></font> </div></div>
