ZROC

Thank you to all of our great members who joined us for our first kickoff event of the season, the 2018 Heritage Dealers Tour! We had 20+ cars which is a GREAT turnout for our first event of the season. We’re looking forward to seeing you all at the other exciting events coming up this season!

All week, people were worried the weather might not work out for us, but we ended up with an amazing beautiful spring day! The rain didn’t roll in until about 1:30, right about the time we headed out for our last stop.

I’d also like to give a HUGE thank you to our sponsors who took amazing care of us as always and showed us just why we love our sponsors so much. Thanks for having us Georgesville Nissan, Buckeye Nissan, Nissan North & Germain Nissan. Members, make sure you stop in some time and show them some love!

Z you at the next event!

Sorry for the delay ZROC! Time got away from me and it’s been a couple weeks since we had another fun day at Grand Prix Karting! Lots of speeding, bumping, blocking and even a little fender bender/spin out action made this a “track day” to remember. After 3 heats, our podium finishers were Shelby Wofford, Randy Lynn & Brian Bivens. Hopefully everyone had a good time, and if you missed out, be sure to stay tuned here for our next event!

Hi ZROC! We have an updated copy of our schedule of events for this year. We were waiting on some details for events that aren’t being hosted by ZROC, and now those details have been added to our schedule. We’d love to see your faces and cars at some of these events throughout the rest of the year. The Google calendar for our events can sometimes be a little buggy, so please reference the actual event pages on Facebook, or review the list of events linked below. As always, if you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment here or email us at  zrocwebsite@gmail.com!

2018 Event Schedule

Thanks,

Jess, VP Communications

Good evening ZROC! I apologize for the delay in getting a post up here, it’s been a busy couple of weeks! Two weekends ago, November 4th, we had our end of year luncheon at the Winking Lizard at Crosswoods. We had a GREAT turnout of people – family, really – coming together to reminisce on the past year and the many great times we’ve had so far, as well as the many good times we will continue to have as we finish out 2017 and roll into 2018.

For those of you who couldn’t attend, we briefly talked about the amazing things we’ve done this season [our 1st Charity Car Show, some great drives, etc], as well as discussed some of the future events we’ve got in the works. You also should have received some sort of communication [via email,  Facebook or on here!] regarding the end of the season questionnaire. If you haven’t already, please be sure to complete this survey so we can find out what our members think about the club/events and can plan accordingly in the future.

We also announced our 2017 Member of the Year, Jessica Padavana!

Shelby Wofford was kind enough to bring his camera and got some really great pictures of the celebrations of a great season. We also have some member-submitted photos, too!  You can check those pictures out here: Event/Club Photos

The year isn’t over just yet, so even though the cars might be going into hibernation, we want to keep the ZROC family together for just a bit longer before 2017 wraps up! Our next [and probably final for 2017] event is Saturday December 2nd for the 2nd Annual COY Christmas Party. If you’ve never been, try to get it on your calendar and join us at the Padavana household for some good food, great drinks and even better people! It’s a great time, I can promise you that much!

Hope to see you all there!

Good morning ZROC!

Last night, several of our members went to the Capital Area Humane Society (their name has now changed to Columbus Humane) to present them with the check donation from our 1st Annual Charity Car Show! Once everything was said and done, the show raised $992.94 dollars through the water sales, registration for the car show, raffle prizes, and the very generous donation of our 50/50 raffle winner. We also had one stand out member, Randy Lynn, who not only donated [$50] prior to the show [thinking he wouldn’t be able to make the show], but registered his car on the day of for the show [$20], as well as gave an ADDITIONAL donation to CAHS during the show [$50].

Members of the board took a vote prior to the show and decided that ZROC itself was going to donate additional money, on top of what we raised from the show. This allowed us to make a final donation in the amount of $1500 to the Capital Area Humane Society/Columbus Humane!

A couple additional quick thanks:

• Everyone who attended, shared and/or promoted the show – we couldn’t have done it without your support
• CPMM Services Group, Inc. for donating banners, registration placards and employee time for projects relating to the car show
• The raffle prize donors: Bernadette Padavana, Pet People, AutoZone & Georgesville Nissan/Joe Federer/Nissan [and Joe Landon who added a little something extra to the Nissan gift bag!]
• Jori’s Catering & Concessions for the delicious food
• Matt Childers, the DJ/emcee for our event
• The Capital Area Humane Society/Columbus Humane volunteers who brought some adoptable dogs to the show – as of last night, Gizmo was still availble (click here for more info on her)!

One final note: the date for the end of year meeting has changed! The original date on the Event Schedule was Nov 11, but OSU has a home game that day. We have now moved the end of year meeting to November 4th. Please stay tuned here and on Facebook for additional details.

Until next time ZROCers…
