Question How to form an area HHR club

Wondering how to go about forming a local HHR club.

In the searches I've done I've found none in my local area.
(don't ask what my area is, as this topic really applies to people in any area without a HHR club)

I see other HHR's in the area, but so far I doubt that any of them are using this forum as I haven't seen any postings from people in my area.

What I'm thinking of doing is making up a bunch of business cards to carry in my car. Anytime I see a parked HHR, I would leave a card under the windshield wiper of the parked HHR to let them know about this forum and ask if they would be interested in forming a local HHR club.

Has anyone done this, or have thoughts on how to form a local club.

We call those Pimp Cards. You can do your own like some of us have or use the template that JonyyB provided:

2. Open and print the ChevyHHR.net Cards Template on the cards*

3. Tare apart and have fun

*Other cards may or may not work. I designed the template based on the above Avery cards.

Here are mine:

I know that our SoCal HHR's are a growing group. We keep things very informal, no dues- etc. We get together at least one a month if to do nothing more than grab a burger and talk shop, etc. Best of luck getting some folks together, Ive met and made some good friends through owning this car.

Thanks!

I'll probably use the template that JonyyB provided.

As HipHotRod said we just approach people with our cards that we have made for our group and welcome them to the site. Once a month or more we just throw something out there for who ever can come and we usually can end up with 15 or so cars. We are now doing our annual event at Toms Farm here in Corona, CA. Last year we were hoping for 25 cars and we had 37 to 40 so just throw it out there and they will. come.

I belong to a couple of car clubs. Managing a car club takes a lot of work, depending on what you want from the club. Is the club just a loose group of people with the same car and you want to have a get together. Do you want a car show which is lots of work? Do you want to produce a newsletter? Those are lots of work to get articles written, the format of the newsletter and printing $$.
