CHAIRMAN’S LETTER<br />

Sometimes we long-time supporters and frequent<br />

visitors to our museum forget the awe and<br />

excitement we felt on our first visit. It is refreshing to<br />

know that every year brings more first-time visitors.<br />

Comments from our<br />

guestbook tell us that<br />

first-timers return home<br />

with memories of a<br />

wonderful experience<br />

and an appreciation<br />

for the cars that were<br />

made by the <strong>Auburn</strong><br />

Automobile Company<br />

that resided here.<br />

This past year has seen<br />

steady growth in many<br />

indicators: attendance<br />

was up by more than 4<br />

percent; three significant cars were added to our<br />

collection; record attendance was recorded at our<br />

annual Labor Day Benefit Extravaganza; and 133<br />

items were added to our Archives.<br />

While all museums are experiencing the effect of<br />

economic times, your <strong>Auburn</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> <strong>Duesenberg</strong><br />

Automobile <strong>Museum</strong> has prudently trimmed costs<br />

where possible. The support of our volunteers,<br />

trustees and members have allowed operations<br />

to continue unabated. We continue to be open<br />

362 days a year and continue to improve the visitor<br />

experience.<br />

A key focus for everyone at the museum is<br />

educational programming. School groups, car<br />

clubs, researchers and auto aficionados all come to<br />

the museum to learn about the <strong>Auburn</strong> Automobile<br />

Company, its cars and the industry. We are a<br />

recognized source for automotive information and<br />

education.<br />

The museum’s board of trustees is now preparing<br />

for the next chapter in our story. Strategic planning<br />

is underway that will take your museum to the next<br />

level of excellence. It will include more interactive<br />

displays, improved interpretation of exhibits to<br />

connect with an increasingly younger audience,<br />

and significant visible enhancements throughout<br />

our campus. Watch for the exciting announcement<br />

soon!<br />

We have such a dedicated staff that puts it all<br />

together. We cannot pay them enough for all<br />

that they do to assure that we remain the finest<br />

automobile museum anywhere. It is clearly a labor<br />

of love for them. <strong>Thank</strong> you!<br />

Deep appreciation, too, for the more than 100<br />

individuals who volunteer their time as docents,<br />

auto restorers and desk staff. They contributed<br />

nearly 14,000 hours last year. <strong>Thank</strong>s also to those<br />

who serve on museum committees, organize<br />

events and lend support as trustees. Our cadre of<br />

volunteers is a real Duesy!<br />

I hope to see you soon in the Home of the Classics.<br />

Jeffrey Turner<br />

Ken and Stephanie Dunsire of Fort Wayne, Indiana,<br />

donated this rare, supercharged 1941 Graham<br />

Hollywood to the museum’s permanent collection<br />

in 2011.<br />

This stylish 1967 Tiger Sunbeam was donated to the<br />

museum by John and Annette Mamula of Hopwood,<br />

Pennsylvania, in 2011.<br />

Richard and Holly (Zerwick) Anderson of South Barrington,<br />

Illinois, donated this unique 1929 Stearns-Knight to the<br />

museum’s permanent collection in 2011.


“One of the best showcases of cars known to man.”<br />

“Passionate, warm, informative – a unique experience. I’ve been<br />

to many car museums but this outshines them all!”<br />

Volunteers of the Year<br />

In 2011, the museum named two volunteers, Ellen Bates and<br />

Jo-Ann Brotherton — both of whom exemplify professionalism<br />

and personalization of service — as its 2010 Volunteers of<br />

the Year. While these attributes are valued in all volunteers,<br />

they are especially important in the Visitor Services area as<br />

this includes the admissions desk, where visitors are checked<br />

in and incoming calls are answered, and the <strong>Museum</strong> Store,<br />

where excellent customer service is a must.<br />

Executive Director Laura<br />

Brinkman (right) presents a<br />

2010 Volunteer of the Year<br />

award and plaque to Ellen<br />

Bates for her exemplary<br />

service at the museum’s<br />

2011 Annual Meeting.<br />

More than 23 years ago, Mearl Bisel<br />

convinced Ellen Bates and her late<br />

husband, Howard, that they had to join<br />

others who were trying to put a museum<br />

together; soon they became charter<br />

members. Howard used to work at the<br />

<strong>Auburn</strong> Automobile Company, and he<br />

became one of the most popular museum<br />

docents because of his personal knowledge<br />

of the building and the people he worked<br />

with. Ellen was very proud of Howard, and<br />

they were a real team, doing everything<br />

together.<br />

Now we are privileged to have Ellen—whose<br />

smile always brightens a room—at the<br />

museum two days a week. She has worked in many areas of<br />

the museum including the galleries, admissions and several<br />

special events such as bridal shows and wine tastings. She is<br />

a real trooper during the <strong>Auburn</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> <strong>Duesenberg</strong> Festival<br />

weekend, working many shifts, and she fills in for other<br />

volunteers as needed.<br />

Jo-Ann Brotherton began her tenure at the<br />

museum in May of 2006. She came with her<br />

husband, Bob, to a volunteer recruitment<br />

fair. He was ready to jump in and get started,<br />

but Jo-Ann wasn’t too sure. She wanted to<br />

start out with something small and behind<br />

the scenes so she began by doing bulk<br />

mailings. After some encouragement, she<br />

substituted for volunteers who answered<br />

Jo-Ann Brotherton, volun- the phones. When someone was needed<br />

teer extraordinaire, is one<br />

to fill-in at the admissions desk, she tried<br />

of two 2010 Volunteers of<br />

the Year named and cel-<br />

that. Jo-Ann preformed all these duties with<br />

ebrated at the museum’s exceptional customer service and attention<br />

2011 Annual Meeting. to detail. She also coined one of the best<br />

lines for greeting visitors, one that helps set<br />

the tone for an exciting museum tour: “Welcome to the World<br />

Headquarters of the <strong>Auburn</strong> Automobile Company!”<br />

Jo-Ann loves to work at special events, especially the museum’s<br />

Bridal Show. Because of the knowledge, professionalism and<br />

the personal attention she gives everyone who walks in the<br />

door, she is the trainer for many new Visitor Services volunteers.<br />

She also volunteers each day of the <strong>Auburn</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> <strong>Duesenberg</strong><br />

Festival weekend. We are glad this volunteer took a chance<br />

on something small when she started because she is now one<br />

of the museum’s biggest assets.<br />

Roger Ellert volunteered nearly 600 hours<br />

of time in 2011 keeping the museum’s<br />

automobile collection looking beautiful.<br />

Automotive volunteers (from left to right)<br />

Robert Probst, Ralph DePalo and Chuck<br />

Schmidt take pride and joy in keeping the<br />

museum’s collection in tip-top shape.<br />

“Although one of 2010’s<br />

Volunteers of Year has been with<br />

the museum for many years and<br />

the other a much shorter time,<br />

they both exhibit volunteerism<br />

at its best: they wholeheartely<br />

support our organization, our<br />

mission, and especially their<br />

fellow volunteers.”<br />

of workers in the early years of the <strong>Auburn</strong> Automobile Company’s<br />

operation to the <strong>Auburn</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> <strong>Duesenberg</strong> Automobile museum’s<br />

Archives. One photograph was taken in 1913 or 1914 in the old repair<br />

shop. On the right, with his hand on a vise, is Fred Zeyenfus, a tester. The<br />

engine in the second car from the front is a 6-cylinder Buda, which was<br />

being experimented with at that time.<br />

On Thursday, September 1, 2011, the <strong>Auburn</strong> <strong>Cord</strong><br />

<strong>Duesenberg</strong> Automobile <strong>Museum</strong> held its Sixth Annual<br />

<strong>Auburn</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> <strong>Duesenberg</strong> Automobile <strong>Museum</strong> Benefit<br />

Extravaganza. The theme for the premier fundraising event<br />

was “Glitz & Glam,” celebrating the classic automobiles<br />

and their beautiful hood ornaments, as well as the<br />

spokeswomen and talented personalities who added the<br />

glamour and flair that helped sell cars at auto shows.<br />

Each year since 2005, the museum, an educational<br />

nonprofit 501(c)(3), has relied on Extravaganza participants<br />

and attendees to give generously to help support its<br />

educational programs. This includes its Public Admissions<br />

program, Archives offerings and Study Trips that meet<br />

Indiana Academic Standards for students.<br />

At 2011’s event, over 350 guests enjoyed drinks and<br />

hors d’oeuvres, mingled with old and new friends, and<br />

browsed through Silent Auction items — ranging from a<br />

Porsche Driving Experience in Europe to a Glitz & Glamour<br />

Photo Exhibit gleaned from the museum’s Archives to a<br />

top-of-the-line Meguiar’s Buffer Kit. <strong>Museum</strong> Chairman<br />

Jeffrey Turner invited the group to be seated in the<br />

museum’s grand hall for dinner, where guests enjoyed a<br />

sumptuous meal served on<br />

tables dressed in striking<br />

aqua and zebra-print linens.<br />

Rhinestone accents, faux<br />

jewels, and framed pictures<br />

of alluring models and movie<br />

stars posing with cars from<br />

the <strong>Auburn</strong> Automobile<br />

Company added just the<br />

right touch of “glitz and<br />

glam.”<br />

After dinner, Mike Eikenberry,<br />

museum vice chairman,<br />

announced the end of the<br />

Silent Auction. Turner, Robert<br />

Pass, museum president<br />

emeritus, and museum<br />

Trustee Bob Joynt, assisted by<br />

Trustee Ken Merusi, served as<br />

emcees.<br />

sixth annual<br />

<strong>Auburn</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> <strong>Duesenberg</strong> Automobile <strong>Museum</strong> Benefit<br />

<strong>Auburn</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> <strong>Duesenberg</strong><br />

Automobile <strong>Museum</strong><br />

2011 Benefit Extravaganza<br />

Automobiles auctioned at the event are never taken from<br />

the museum’s collection. To acquire auction cars each<br />

year, a museum-appointed committee looks for individual<br />

owners who want to sell their cars at the Extravaganza<br />

auction. Buyers and sellers pledge a donation to the<br />

museum’s educational programming. To get the most<br />

support possible for the museum, the committee reviews<br />

a wide variety of makes, models and price points, then<br />

chooses cars that, they think, will draw the most interest<br />

and attention from Extravaganza attendees.<br />

The 2012 Benefit Extravaganza will be on Thursday, August<br />

30 at 6:00 p.m. Its theme, Racers and Record-Setters, pays<br />

tribute to the men and machines that raised the bar of<br />

automotive engineering during the formative days of<br />

the <strong>Auburn</strong> Automobile Company. The ticket price per<br />

person is $150. Event sponsorships that include tickets are<br />

also available; this is a great way to get your business<br />

recognized by a premier crowd of serious car collectors<br />

and enthusiasts. Contact Jan Schippers at 260-925-1444 or<br />

jans@automobilemuseum.org for tickets or information.
