President's Message~~~~~~~
It's Labor Day weekend as I write this, and I can't help but reflect on this summer as it draws to a close. On long holiday weekends you will typically find me in the garage, and this one is no exception. There is a car care products company that even refers to working in your garage as therapy. This may seem a bit extreme, but I find some truth to it. My son's college fall work cooperative starts in September and lasts until March. The C280 will be off to Philly once again. The black sport model will be traveling daily from the Drexel campus to Bensalem. It gives me piece of mind knowing that he will be protected if he were to be in an accident, but better yet that he may be able to avoid a collision altogether with his nimble Mercedes. Please take a look at our events calendar, and plan on joining us soon. Excitement is really building for our upcoming picnic! Looking forward to seeing you soon!
Marty
****************Editor's Note******************* Mercedes Benz of Lancaster's service department has asked that we remind our members to please inform the service writers that you are an MBCA member when you bring your car for service, so that they can insure you get your 15% discount, and it is written up before service. You may, also, be asked to show your membership card, so take it along. This will save you and the service dept. the time of having to do a refund after the fact. This would also work at Sun Motors or any other authorized dealer that offers MBCA members a discount.
Pennsylvania License Plate Program for MBCA
Pennsylvania license plates with the Mercedes-Benz Club of America on them are now available. These organizational plates are only available to current MBCA members who reside in PA. The license plates may be put on any brand of vehicle. Please see the restrictions on PENNDOT MV-904SP.
They are only available through our club and not through any PENNDOT office. To get your special license plates, please download the application forms and instructions available on our section website, , at this link Pennsylvania MBCA Plate Form, fill them out (the three forms needed are "fillable" PDF files and are in the same PDF file), and send them to Donna Copenheaver, the program coordinator along with a check for $42.00 for the Regular Plate or $146 for a Customized Plate, payable to Keystone Section, MBCA. Need more information? Please contact Donna, your Program Coordinator at (717764-5890) or maxanddonna@.
Do we have your Email Address? If you did not give the national office your email on your membership application, or it has changed since you joined, please consider sending it to me at kitjan613@. It will be used for only Keystone Section communications! We are trying to compile as complete a list as possible of member email info. This helps us with last-minute reminders, changes or cancellation of events. It would, also, enable us to send the newsletter by email in the future, and save the club some of the costs of printing and postage.
September Picnic and Clean Car Show Masonic Village Picnic Pavilion, Elizabethtown, PA
September 9, 2018
We have a new venue for our September picnic this year. We will be meeting at the Masonic Village in Elizabethtown. Our location will be at the Masonic Village Picnic Pavilion on Eden View Road. For those of you who may be somewhat familiar with the Masonic Village campus, the Picnic Pavilion is just a stone's throw from the Farm Market.
Once again we will gather about 3 p.m. to show off our newly cleaned and hopefully sparkling Benz. Our picnic dinner will begin at 4:30 p.m. and will include BBQ Baby Back Ribs, Grilled Boneless Chicken Breasts, Classic Potato Salad, Fresh Fruit Salad, Corn on the Cob, and Baked Beans. There will be an assortment of cookies and brownies for dessert. Iced tea, bottled water and lemonade will also be provided.
The cost per adult is $20 (members + 1 guest), $30 for non-members and children under 12, $10, with any remaining cost subsidized by our section treasury.
Cars will be on display in the grass area in front of the pavilion for the "Members Choice Clean Car Show" from 3 p.m., with judging at 4:00 p.m. A short business meeting will follow our dinner. Winners of the car show will be announced, and prizes will be awarded.

Keystone Section Fall Rally Historic Lancaster County
Our 2018 Fall Rally will be held on Sunday, October 21st. We will start the rally from the Boscov's Park City parking lot at 1pm. This year we will be running a slightly different type of rally than past years. Our rally masters, John and Jan Kitner , have picked several points of interest in the Lancaster area. Participants will plot their own route from the supplied map of the area to visit each site, and answer questions about each. A GPS or navigation app may be of great assistance. Scoring will be based on least number of miles to complete all the visits, and correctly answering the questions asked about each venue. For more info, or to sign-up contact John Kitner, 717-872-2988 or kitjan613@.
Directions to Boscov's : From Route 30East: Take the Harrisburg Pike exit, turn left at the light and continue on Harrisburg Pike to the Park City entrance. Turn right into Park City and follow the outer loop around the mall until you see Boscov's. We will meet at the outer edge of their parking lot. You will need to look for our MBCA stanchion in the parking lot. From Rt. 30 West: Take the Harrisburg Pike exit and make a right onto Harrisburg Pike, and follow the previous directions around the mall. From Rt.283: Take the 741 exit, and continue to the traffic light at Harrisburg Pike. Make a left onto Harrisburg Pike and continue on until you see Park City on your left. Make a left at the second light into Park City, and follow the previous directions around the mall.

Airbag Recall
At Mercedes-Benz, our highest priority is keeping you safe. So we'd like to share some important information about a recall involving Takata frontal airbags used in many vehicles, including certain Mercedes-Benz models. This safety recall is a result of inflators that may improperly deploy with excessive force in the event of a crash. Takata and other inflator suppliers are working with the U.S. Department of Transportation National Highway Administration (NHTSA) to coordinate availability of replacement airbags as soon as possible.
To learn more about the Takata recall, including information on free airbag replacement, visit mercedes/recall.
