2008 Announcement

May 20, 2008

2008 West Coast Lotus Meet

The 2008 West Coast Lotus Meet (WCLM) will be held October 2-5, 2008 in Canyonville, Oregon. The Golden Gate Lotus Club will host the 3-day event with assistance from other Lotus clubs on the west coast.

The WCLM will be a Lotus Celebration! Since the introduction of the Elise in 2004 to North America, there has been a renewal of the excitement for Lotus. The Elise was joined by the Exige and most recently the Lotus Two-Eleven and Exige S240.
The WCLM is set-up to be the ultimate Lotus experience for the loyal Lotus enthusiast.

The fun begins with an Opening Reception at the WCLM hotel, Seven Feathers Casino Resort Hotel in Canyonville, Oregon on Thursday October 2nd.

Also on Thursday, October 2nd will be an optional Solo I style time trials on a closed track at the Jackson County Sports Park in White City, Oregon about an hour’s drive from Canyonville. The tight twisty course will challenge drivers to find the quickest way around.

On Friday, October 3rd WCLM entrants will an opportunity to explore the area. Beginning at the Seven Feathers Resort the WCLM day will kicks off with a private tour of the CD Lumber Company, the largest producer of cedar lumber products in the U.S. You’ll get a chance to see this huge saw mill in action!

After the CD Lumber saw mill tour you’ll have a choice of touring to Crater Lake or to the incredible Oregon Coast or visit some of award winning Oregon wineries.

Friday ends with an amazing and exclusive riverside Bar-B-Que of ribs and chicken on a private ranch. If you like fly fishing this spot is a piece of heaven with Steelhead and Salmon filling the South Umpqua River.

Saturday, October 4th is another busy day for the 2008 WCLM. The day opens with the WCLM Autocross. This is an opportunity for every WCLM entrant to enjoy their Lotus near its limits. The WCLM Autocross will run all day. Those who tire of autocross can elect to do one of the tours.

Saturday evening will open with the WCLM cocktail hour followed by the WCLM Banquet at the Seven Feathers Resort. After the WCLM banquet you can see the Cabaret show (the WCLM will reserve an entire show just for our delight!) or entertain yourself by trying your luck at one of the slots, card tables, craps or poker games.

The 2008 WCLM will conclude on Sunday October 5th with the WCLM Concours and Awards Picnic. The WCLM Concours will be set among tall pines and fir trees.
And after the WCLM awards are announced you’ll sadly have to say good-bye to all your WCLM friends, but the memories and stories will last a lifetime.

The 2008 WCLM will be headquartered at the Seven Feathers Casino Resort and Hotel. Special rates have been negotiated for WCLM entrants.

There’s more information and registration will open shortly at www.gglotus.org. There will be a special reduced registration price for early bird entries.

The all in one registration fee includes Concours, Reception, Picnic, Bar-B-Que, Autocross, Tours, Saw Mill Tour and Cabaret show. There is a separate fee for the optional WCLM Time Trials.
