A convertible club is composed of a group of individuals who possess a passion for convertibles. While many members may own their own convertibles, this is not a pre-requisite for entrance into most organizations. Local or state clubs are a good choice for most enthusiasts, although nationwide clubs are also available.
Edit Steps
- 1Visit the dealership where you bought your convertible. Inquire about any convertible clubs in your area.
- Even if there are no clubs available for you to join, the dealer may be able to give you the names and contact information for other convertible owners who are interested in starting a new club. Remember, it only takes 2 or 3 people to form a club.
- 2Contact Car Clubs Worldwide at www.carclubsworldwide.com. This is an online organization that distributes the names and contact information for car club presidents worldwide.
- While most car clubs are in North America, there are a few specialty clubs in Europe. Be aware that most of these clubs require yearly dues for participation.
- 3Search the Internet. Use search terms like "local convertible club" for best results.
- Finding a convertible club in this manner can be difficult. Be sure to investigate the claims listed on websites before posting your credit card number, name or address.
- 4Evaluate each club carefully.
- Don't let your enthusiasm dictate which club you will join. Instead, educate yourself on all options and then make a solid choice.
Edit Tips
- You don't need a convertible to belong to a convertible club. All that is required is a passion for the vehicle. However, many clubs participate in cross-state drives, especially during summer and spring months. If you don't own a convertible, find a friend in the club who will allow you to ride along so you can participate in the festivities.
- Be sure to inquire as to the activities and duties of club members. Most individuals are looking for something more in a club than to simply pay dues and register as members. Make sure the club you join offers a variety of meetings, activities and social events. In most cases, the secretary of the club can provide a great amount of detail as to the club's social calendar.
