1. ` Letter From The President Bob Mashburn President, Mile-High Section December Behind the Wheel The Holiday Season is here and soon we will be saying goodbye to 2017 and hello to 2018. We made some changes in 2017 that we will continue within 2018, all of our events will still be on the second Saturday of each month. Our board meetings will be at Mercedes-Benz of Denver on the first Thursday of each month from 6:00pm to 7:00pm (board meetings are open to all members). Our planning breakfast was great; the entire 2018 calendar was set. We have a lot of fun things set up with some drives; cog railroad; museum, etc. The Restaurant Week will be the only event that will be on a Sunday. For all information on these events they will be posted in Constellation in the 2018 Mercedes-Benz Club Event Plans. The Mile-High Section will not have a Regional event in 2018. We are going to support a National Event hosted by the Pikes Peak Section in September. I would like to thank the Club Officers, Vice President Randy Williams; Secretary Mike Redel; Treasurer Max Townsend and our Board Members, Greg Birkett; Michael Davison; Natalie Mashburn; Lou Rodgers; John Nordman; Whitlow Wong; The Constellation Karen Redel for all their hard work. Happy Holidays and Have a Happy New Year Drive Safe Bob 2
