President's Message

As we move through a warm summer I hope you, your family and your Mercedes Benz are enjoying it. Next month is fast approaching and with it the busiest month of the year for us Mercedes Benz enthusiasts. There is an event almost every weekend! A chance to meet, learn and share with other enthusiasts.

The main event run by our club is Legends of the Autobahn on September 23rd. It will be held in Westbury Gardens and joining us again will be the Porsche Club, and for the first time the BMW Club as well. Last year with a rain delay and all we had a great turnout. This year the weather will cooperate! The club will provide free lunch, just be sure to register and mail a check for 10 dollars which will be returned to you at the event. This event could one day the equivalent of the West Coast Legends held during Pebble Beach Week in California!

We begin September with two car show events on the ninth. One in Great Neck and at the Sear Auto Center on Broadway (Routes 106/107) in Hicksville. The Great Neck show is right in the center of the village, which is quite beautiful and provides members a chance to show their Mercedes and walk about the town. The second in the parking lot of Sears and is called Crusin' for the Cure. It is also a car show and will have speakers, food and other entertainment. The entrance fees are used to support research for prostate cancer and there are free prostate blood tests. Not even a week later is the Alternatives for Children Car Rally beginning out in Aquebogue. This year the fee has been reduced for our members and is $99. The fees are used support schools dealing with special needs students.

See our weekly e-blasts for details for these and future events.

I look forward to seeing you at these events.
