CLUB NOTES
MEETING CHANGE OF VENUE
Due to the death of the owner of the Route 7 Diner, we need to find a new home for our membership meetings. For starters, October's meeting will be held tomorrow (October 10th) at O'Toole's Restaurant, Kohl's Plaza in Colonie. Meeting time is still 7pm. Head to the back room. Future meeting locations will be announced when they have been confirmed.
CRUISE TO MILLS MANSION
The annual cruise to The Gathering of Old Cars at Mills Mansion takes place Sunday, October 21st, where the club has secured reserved parking. I will again be leading the cruise down to the venue. Everybody is invited. You don't have to be a member of our club -or even own a Buick- to join us for the cruise down. We will meet at the Mobil/Dunkin Donuts off I-90 Exit 10 (Miller Rd) and travel our usual route of Routes 9, 9H & 9 to Mills. There will be at least one pit stop along the way. Departure time at the meeting location is 8:30 so please allow enough time for coffee and donuts. If you plan on joining me for the ride down I would appreciate you RSVP-ing me so I have an idea whom to expect. RSVP me at cruisemastered@gmail.com or call 518-496-1674.
Tell your friends. The more the merrier.

Like Buicks? Want to meet like-minded individuals? Then consider joining the Upstate New York Chapter of the Buick Club of America. We are based in the Capital District area but have members in the surrounding communities as well. We even have a member from the state of Vermont! We enjoy driving our cars so a lot of our activities include a driving tour of some sort. Past driving tours have taken us north to Plattsburgh, over to Stockbridge, MA, and into the mountains of Vermont. We also hold an annual cruise-in at Goldstein Buick in Albany. We use it to kick off the summer and open it to any and all cars, as it is a fundraiser for local charity. We hold a summer picnic and Christmas party with little or no cost to attending members. Our meetings are generally held in the winter months, usually the third Sunday of the month, and we try to hold them at interesting locations. Our quarterly newsletter, Upstate Update, goes out to all chapter members. And, oh yea, you will usually find some of us at the local cruise-ins in the summer. Like I said, we like to drive our cars.
If we sound like the club for you, check us out. Contact one of the officers for further information.
