The Vintage Motor Car Club of America

An update from the Membership VP, Clare Oestreicher

- posted December 26, 2024

You like it! You really like it! I’m talking about our new membership tier with digital delivery of the Bulb Horn magazine!

Your club officers heard the requests of folks who like to read their news online. We worked with our software and website consultants to develop an additional membership option for the new year. We announced its availability in July and wondered how it would be received when dues renewal time arrived on September 1.

As of this Bulb Horn’s mid-September printing deadline, nearly 25% of membership renewals have chosen the digital version! I’m a print-oriented reader, so I’m amazed by that popularity and glad we did the work to put the option in place. Many thanks to VMCCA Publications Vice President Ray Maxfield and his crew for their thoughtful and detailed handling of its development.

To sign up for the digital membership level, remember to pay your 2025 dues by December 1, 2024. It will take some time to get that email list set up. Otherwise, please send in your dues before January 1, 2025, as always. Thank you!

You’ll be seeing updated VMCCA membership brochures at future car shows and tours. Bulb Horn editor Tracy Lesher, committee member Dion Stams, and I have put together a new edition of the slim glossy flyer that describes our club and includes a handy membership application. It would make a great stocking stuffer for that friend who needs a nudge to join us for the new year’s events. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to everyone.

We are excited to welcome 38 new members to the club and to have you join us for our tours and activities. Our new members are listed below. Current members, take a look and find your neighbors, then invite them to local VMCCA events.
