Last night Team Lingenfelter attended the kick off and ribbon cutting of the Women in Motor Sports North America Detroit Chapter.  The event was well attended from ladies representing all aspects of the industry.  From General Motors, Maserati, Lamborghini, IMSA, students, Bosch - very inspiring group of women!!

The event was hosted at the Automotive Hall of Fame in Dearborn, Michigan. They were hoping for 45 people in attendance and pleasantly surprised to surpass that goal of 70 attending. 

The night started off with Cindy Sisson, Executive Director opening remarks and outlining the Women in Motorsports movement.  The Detroit Chapter President Rena Shanaman followed introducing herself and inspiring us to get involved in upcoming events in the area that will be taking place.
