John Strom made a photo presentation and talk about the challenges of driving in Europe. He described different cars he has driven in Europe and recommended you rent the narrowest car available because of the narrow roads and tight parking spots. Also, a GPS is essential.
European road signs can be quite different from USA signs and he strongly recommended reviewing the signs on the internet before any European driving trip. - BMW FOUNDATION
Mart Jaama briefed on the BMW Foundation and the financial support needed from the local chapters. Any action by our chapter was deferred and will be discussed at the upcoming board meeting. - BMW BRIEFS and BMW TRIVIA were reserved for the February meeting
