Subject Page(s) Letter from the President, Bob Mashburn 2 Board Officers 2 Recruiting Board Members 3 Time Line Formula 1 - Continued The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL (W 194 series) racing sports car came as an overwhelming surprise: Although people had hoped for a car like this from Mercedes-Benz during the post-war period, it still left the world speechless when it was presented in March 1952. That same year, the 300 SL enjoyed enormous success at all the major international racing sports car events. Despite its surprise effect, however, the 300 SL racing sports car was not a product of chance, but the result of thorough engineering work. From it emerged the W 198 series production sports car with the identical model designation, 300 SL. The Mercedes-Benz 190 SL (W 121) was developed in parallel. The brand showed both cars in February 1954 at the International Motor Sports Show in New York and received a tremendously positive response. 4-8 The Back Lot – Used Cars 9 Formula 1 Cross Word Puzzle 10 2016 Events Calendar 11 Event Information Paint Mine Interpretive Park 12 Trail Ridge Scenic Drive 13-14 Mercedes-Benz Joint Picnic 15 Mesa Verda Regional Event 16 Formula 1 Cross Word Puzzle Answers 17 JUNE SOCIAL - JUNE 15, 2015 @ 6:30P Pinnochio’s Italian Restaurant; 177 East Bridge Street; Brighton, CO RSVP: Lou Rodgers at 303-466-3372 If you have not received your New Member Packet or if you have questions about your membership, please contact MHS Membership Chair Person, Natalie Mashubrn, by phone at 303-988-2710 or by email at [email protected] 1 Mile-High Section, Inc. of the Letter From The President Bob Mashburn President, Mile-High Section Mercedes-Benz Club of America Executive Board Officers President: Bob Mashburn ….303-988-2710...Bob.

Note: The park doesn’t allow dogs or bicycles. Lunch will be at Frankie’s Too! in Colorado Springs after our trip to the park. We will meet in the Safeway parking lot in Castle Rock (Plum Creek, Exit 181 off of I-25) at 9:00AM on Saturday, June 25, 2016.

We will be starting In Longmont, proceed through Estes Park into Rocky Mountain National Park. We will then proceed through Rocky Mountain National Park, over Trail Ridge and with our final destination being Grand Lake Lodge for lunch. If you have never been to the Grand Lake Lodge, it is absolutely beautiful, the food is very good and let’s not forget the gorgeous views. TRAIL RIDGE SCENIC DRIVE & GRAND LAKE LODGE Date: Saturday, July 23, 2016 Meeting Location: Walmart in Longmont – 2514 Main Street; Longmont, CO (Main Street/Highway 66) There will be a $5.00/Car Event Charge Make your check payable to MBCA, Mile-High Section, Send Check & This Form C/O: Mike Redel, 12245 Helena Street; Brighton, CO 80603 Name _________________________ Phone: ______________________ Email: _____________________________ Number Attending _____ for restaurant reservation Please Reserve Your Spot With: Mike Redel – (303-637-0219) or [email protected] By Monday, July 18, 2016 for Lunch Reservations 13 13 Trail Ridge, Grand Lake Diaper Drive Outline July 23, 2016 This will be a Diaper Drive for the Joshua Station Organization. Joshua Station Organization is an organization helping families make the transition from homelessness to a heathy, stable living environment. Please bring a box of diapers to donate. Details will be more specific next month but for now this is an overview of the drive. There will be a $5.00 per car registration fee. The cut off for registration will be July 16, 2016. Send registration form and fee to Mike Redel. All contact information is on the form. We will be meeting on Saturday morning in North Longmont at Highway 66 and Main St. (US 287). The exact meeting and departure time have not been determined yet. The route is to proceed west through Lyons and on to Estes Park. We will enter Rocky Mountain National Park to travel over Trail Ridge Road. This is also US Highway 34. The plan will be to schedule for estimated travel time to destination plus 1.5 hours for stops and site seeing. Due to summertime traffic we will not travel as a caravan but as individuals with the schedule stated. Each car will be responsible to make it to the Grand Lake Lodge on time. There is a $20 per car Park entry fee that is good for the day. Our destination is the Grand Lake Lodge above Grand Lake Co. for Lunch. This will be scheduled for approx 1 pm. The return trip is your choice. You can go back over Trail Ridge the way we came, or Drive down to Granby and take US Highway 40 back to Denver. This route is approximately 125 miles to Denver. General Information: Trail Ridge is a beautiful run with many pullouts and parking areas to view the scenery. You will be at high altitude so be careful to drink plenty of water and not to exert yourself to much in the thin air. There will be summer traffic conditions so we just have to be patient and enjoy the ride. The road is paved all the way unless construction or repairs are in progress. Weather can be fickle ranging from high 80’s to snow and all in between. Respect storm clouds, Lightning is a real danger so use common sense. There is a store on the summit but there is limited parking and I would recommend not stopping there. There are restrooms along the way for those needs. We hope to have a MB parking area at the Lodge for us but has not been confirmed yet. This will be a great summer drive for our members so plan for the date. 14 MERCEDES-BENZ JOINT PICNIC Saturday, August 13, 2016 Time & Location TBD 15 ROCKY MOUNTAIN REGIONAL EVENT SEPTEMBER 9, 10, 11, 2016 You are cordially invited to join members from other regions and sections in a fascinating drive to Mesa Verde National Park and Four Corners Monument.
