On the 4th Mayon our club calendar we had planned for another cruise. AusGarage on the same day are holding their second "A Day For Car Enthusiasts" at Pine Rivers Park.
We attended this event last year as a club and it was a great day. Big mix of different car clubs, trade stalls, good food and most of a great social day.
We are looking at changing the cruise to this and will do the planned cruise route for our next cruise.

Info from the Facebook event page:

It’s on again! After the great success of our first "A Day for Car Enthusiasts" event last year we’re holding another one on Sunday the 4th May. This event is all about bringing car events back to the basics. Cars, food, enthusiasts and a great venue for a Sunday afternoon.

We’ll have a DJ playing on the day with entertainment and gourmet food. This is a chance for all automotive enthusiasts from Muscle, Euro, Japanese, hot rods, motorsport and bikes to display their vehicle, sit down and enjoy great company.

There’ll be a VIP section with 300 spots available to display your car in the amphitheater amongst the trade stands and entertainment. VIP parking is $10 and available for pre order with any spare spots sold on the day. (VIP tickets pre order available from 01/03/14)

For those who aren't looking to purchase VIP tickets we will have the oval below the amphitheater open for general public. This will be just a gold coin per car entry collected at the gate.

Car clubs are strongly encouraged, AusGarage appreciates that car clubs are the backbone of the automotive community and we would love to section off a location for your club on the day.

Facebook Event page for anyone wanting to follow it: https://www.facebook.com/events/668495866541977/

Due to the available spots for VIP display (which is what we will be doing) if you would like to come along and have a great day and display your car and represent our club if you could please post your interest so we can get an idea on numbers to let James know how much room we require.

The Club will have 12 spots at the event, come down and have a look

Hi all

Well the year has flown and already we are at the time of the Annual General Meeting. Whilst some of you will now stop reading this post it would be appreciated if you could read all the way through.

It has been a great year for the club and the current Committee have enjoyed their roles and the friendships made during the year. As per the Club Constitution, all the positions are to be made vacant and nominations are sought for each position. For people who have never been involved in Committees before, it can be daunting putting your hat in the ring for a position you know very little about.

This year the committee is going to make it easier by making deputy positions available for each major role so you can learn what is involved. It is hard having a few people doing most of the work so we are trying to make it easy for everyone and keep the club moving forward.

It is important to have new people with new ideas involved in the committee so that the club continues to grow. Your commitment to being a member of the Committee involves one additional meeting per month and assist where needed with events. You also get access to the Committee only section of the forum for ongoing discussions between meetings. Not very much to ask.

The positions vacant are:

President
Vice President
Secretary
Deputy secretary
Treasurer
Deputy Treasurer
Merchandise
Events - as many as possible
Meeting Coordinator (new position)
Membership Secreretary
Deputy Membership Secretary
IT
Motorsport Coordinator

All the current committee members are asked to nominate if they would like to continue for another year (of course this is if they are voted in by the members). If 2 people nominate for the one position, that is terrific and the role can be dived into 2positions. Voting will take place at the AGM.

Nominations must be received by the Friday prior to the meeting.

Any queries relating to each position, can be directed to the person currently holding the position or anyone on the Committee.

The AGM will be held on Tuesday 10th September. Venue to be decided.

Look forward to welcoming you onto the Committee.

This is our biggest meeting of the year, Russ invites all his customers along, there will be 150+ people at this meeting and so much to see and do.

We need to support this meeting and wear our club stuff as this is a great way to get new members.
Can the winners of the concourse please bring along your trophies so I can present them to you again and also award the Best in Show as this has not been announced as yet.
