Hey Ken,

 

Congrats on the new position!  Although I haven't always agreed with the
DOA's methods, I have always agreed with your stated mission.  I'd like to
help further that mission locally if I can.  How do I go about helping to
setup a local chapter?

Subject: [DMCForum] DeLorean Owners Association

 

Recently there has been a major change in the management of the 
DeLorean Owners Association. With that change comes a new direction. 
I realize that this forum is not the most popular place for the DOA. 
I also realize that in the past there have been many conflicts with 
the board of the DOA and other leaders in the DeLorean community. As 
I stated, with a new Board comes a new direction and a fresh 
attitude. We can't change the past, but we can control our future. 
Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Ken Baker and I am the new 
President of the DeLorean Owners Association. 

There has been a lot of chatter about the Association. I'm amazed as 
to how much of the comments are not true. There also have been some 
very useful constructive comments. I realize in the past there has 
been a feeling that the DOA is an elitist organization. As DeLorean 
enthusiasts, we want to work to bring the DeLorean community 
together. We would like to hear from you, the DeLorean owner and 
enthusiast.

As the President, my goal is to promote the legacy of John DeLorean 
and help preserve and promote the DeLorean automobile. The board as 
a team will strive to meet the needs of the DeLorean community and 
work to unit all DeLorean owners. I think it's important to remember 
that we all got into this hobby because we share a passion. I am sure 
no one got into it to have conflicts or animosity towards others. 

In the next month we are going to launch new programs that will 
hopefully benefit the DeLorean community. In the meantime, we hope to 
hear from you. In the past, there has been talk of "secret meetings" 
and the board was unapproachable. Those days are over. We are out 
here reaching out to the DeLorean community. We would like to hear 
from you and how to meet your needs. My email address is listed 
below. Please contact me directly if you would like to contribute or 
discuss issues, concerns, or how we as a DeLorean Club can better 
serve the DeLorean community and our members. 

The team that makes up the Board of Directors of the DeLorean Owners 
Association is:

Ken Baker President
Mark Shearer Vice President
Ron Ferguson Membership Director
James Hales Advertising Director
Joan Truscott Treasurer
Elliott Hansen Chapter Director -Florida
Alistair McCann Chapter Director-Ireland
Steve Hirman Chapter Director-Minnesota
