137th Wayne’s Classic Car Run
The arrangements for the September 137th Wayne’s car enthusiasts drive and lunch are below:
– Wednesday 4 Sep. – the forecast is a balmy 19 deg, with very slight chance of rain. Tops down I reckon.
– starting at the Rivulet Café, bottom of Anglesea Street, South Hobart, around 10.15am for morning coffee.
– parking – plenty of space in the new parking area so park as many as we can there as it’s a wonderful photo opportunity and leaves spaces closer to the swings etc for the young families..
– departing around 11.15am and arriving around 12.30pm for lunch. The cost is $30 a head, with two courses, 5 choices main and 2 desserts
– Venue clue – We are heading in a Southerly direction. I seem to recall that Wayne took us there during Co-vid days..
– RSVP required by 5.00pm on Monday 2 Sep. paul.haddad@utas.edu.au.

As usual, the election of a new Committee will take place. The present Committee has been serving the interests of Members virtually unchanged for a number of years now. We would urge all members to take part in the running of the Club and put your names forward for consideration at the AGM. It is not too onerous a task, and helping fellow members make the most of their Club experience is very satisfying. The present Committee are there to help and guide any new participants to help them gain the confidence to settle into their new positions. The Club can only move forward if we have new ideas and the means to progress them.
So please give it some consideration!
You can download and print a Committee Nomination Form here; please complete it and forward it to Jenni at the above address.
