November 2024
The last month has been a bit busy in our club.
The first piece of news is that Anne Pettigrew has resigned from our committee.
Anne has been a hard worker for our club and very thorough in everything she has done, Anne is not leaving our club and will be coming along to events, I thank Anne for her contribution and wish her well.
The Concours! What can I say, We must have upset the weather gods somewhere along the way, another wet event, but, all considered, I thought it was a success.
Thanks to Greg, Frans, Gary and Andrew for the lead up work and preparation, also Peter and his crew of helpers on the day, everyone chipped in to get the job done. Thanks to Graham and Greg for doing the tallying up of the judging sheets and Steve Jones for the Certificates. Thanks to Michael Stevenson for the setting up and use of his PA system, and Alan Andoni for being the voice for the day. I must thank Kay for sitting all day selling raffle tickets. Kay had a very able assistant in Bennie Campbell, even though Bennie is on a walker at the moment, thank you. The other group of people to mention is the judges, Judging can be a thankless task but our crew did a sterling job, thank you.
Gary will be covering the winners and place getters in his article elsewhere in your magazine.
Finally, Historic Vehicle registration Inspections will take place on Saturday the 7th December, 9.30 until 10.30 at the Ampol Service Station , Minmi Rd, Maryland.
Octagonally Yours,
Denny Bowden,
President, MGCCHR
