<VV> Young Corvair owners

Well, someone beat me to it.  Here is an advance copy of My Directors Turn At The Wheel for September:
“We have arrived”!! That is a direct quote from Harry Jensen after he was informed that CORSA officially has its own listing on My Space.com.  During the annual Board meeting this year we touched on what can we do to attract and maintain the younger generation in CORSA.  We decided to form a committee of the younger generation and have them report to the Board on annual basis.
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> 
The age group we are targeting is from 15 – 24 years old.  To date we have 7 people who have signed up to help out.  The Chairman of the group is Leslie Every.  Leslie quickly enlisted the help of Kim Jensen, Kevin Foreman, Rachel Grimes, and Taylor Allen. 
 
The group has not come up with a committee name, but they are working on it.  The first thing Leslie did when she got home form the convention was to put CORSA on My Space.  Since then she has been surfing through the site and inviting anyone on the list to join as a friend.  She has found over 24 people and so far half have responded to her favorably as to what she has put out there.  There have been some good conversations going back and forth.  The most amazing thing Leslie found is the lack of knowledge by these people that CORSA exists.  Some had heard of CORSA, but had no idea what it was or how to join.
 
The committee’s purpose is to see what we as a Board can do for them.  They will be coming up with ideas as to what they would like to do during conventions and regional events.  I know one idea they would like to do is for us to organize a night out at a club that will allow them to go and not have to worry about being underage and not allowed in.
 
If anyone knows of a 15 – 24 year old who would like to see more activities for this generation please feel free to email Leslie at outrunning13 at hotmail.com, or call her 386-547-7353.  Any and all ideas are welcome.  For those of you who want to check out My Space please follow this URL: www.myspace.com/corvairsocietyofamerica.
