Welcome, 2025!
Another year has passed, and we welcome 2025. Thanks to our members for re-electing our previous board to serve for two more years. This year will be more exciting than last year. We are adding new volunteers to join our board, we will have exciting drives and joint events with other regions. We will open up another monthly Cars & Coffee on the coast.
We are looking forward to new volunteers to lead the drives. Our board members will strive hard to make 2025 better than our previous years. So hold tight and let the fun begin.
Special mention—we will miss the smile of my lovely wife Jackie on our drives, car events and Cars & Coffee that she supported.
Thank you, and Enjoy the Ride!

We are planning a drive on May 21 from Eugene to Reedsport, for lunch at the Harbor Light Restaurant. To be honest, I haven’t finalized the entire route yet. But I wanted to get this notice out now so that you can make plans.
The UPDATED plan at this point is to gather at Lowe’s on W11th in Eugene at 9:00, with a 9:30 departure time. With a short rest stop on the way, that should get us into Reedsport a bit before 11:30 for a slightly early lunch. The Harbor Light Restaurant indicated that it will easier for them to accommodate a group if we don’t arrive right at 12:00. Depending on how many of us there are, there could be a delay in getting seated.
This will be a bit longer drive than many. Due to the length of the drive, you should expect to get back to Eugene no earlier than 3:30, maybe a bit later.
For our Central Coast members, feel free to meet us in Reedsport for lunch and a bit of a meet and greet!
RSVPs are required for lunch, as I need to give the eatery some advance warning. Click this link to RSVP, and note whether you will be driving from Eugene or just meeting in Reedsport for lunch.
See you then!
