Dear Michigan Touring Riding Club Members, We hope this message finds you well and enjoying your rides with the club. As we approach the mid-year mark, we are conducting our regular membership review to ensure that all participants are up-to-date with their membership requirements. Please be advised that on June 30th, we will be updating our membership list. As part of this process, we will be removing individuals from our Facebook page who have not yet submitted a completed MTRC membership waiver or paid the annual $20 dues. Those removed will continue to have access to our website and calendar if they would like to participate in the future. CLICK HERE to visit our website. We value each of our members and want to ensure that everyone has access to the benefits and community support that MTRC offers. If you have not yet turned in your waiver or dues, we encourage you to do so at your earliest convenience to continue enjoying all the privileges of membership. You can turn membership forms and dues in to any officer at a ride or at the main counter inside Zeigler Motorsports. If you have any questions or need assistance with your membership, please feel free to reach out to us. We are here to help and want to make this process as smooth as possible for everyone. Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the Michigan Touring Riding Club. We look forward to many more enjoyable rides together! Best regards, The MTRC Team |
