Title: Time is nearly up Post by: GREGD on December 16, 2007, 10:51:14 PM Hi to all
Firstly may I wish all members and their families a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year. Nationals entries will close on the 31 of December so if you are still thinking about filling out you entry, now is the time to do it. The nationals is now a once in every 10 or 12 year event for all our clubs and being able to attend is a real thrill South Australia is now in the throws of hosting it's 3rd nationals and its allways good to here "we'll see you at the next nats" and things happen you forget and all of sudden the closing date for entries nears and you are saying "I must fill out that entry" then the closing date is passed and you have missed the chance to attend one of the most fabulous events in FE FC Holden car clubs calender. The S.A club has weekend of fun and games planned for the 12th Nationals in one of the most picturesque parts of Australia, Mt Gambier is renown for its tourist attractions and during your stay on the Limestone Coast you will be able to visit the Blue Lake with its crystal clear blue waters, a limestone quarry. a yabby farm or a winery to mention just a few. Mount Gambier will put on great weather. Driving your FE-FC to Port MacDonnell for the interclub challenge is a lovely drive from Mount Gambier that will take about 30 minutes as the road winds through the countryside. Finding a venue that puts our cars in front of the public can be a challenge but at Frew Park, we are on THE major intersection in the town and lots of passers by will be impressed with our display and will stop for a look. The oval is walking distance to the town center and across the road from the Lady Nelson tourist info center and is overflowing with ideas on how to fill your spare time. The Quality Inn International will be Nationals HQ, with the NASCO BAR being the central location for after hours socialising with refreshments available and the venue for our Friday fish and chip night and Saturday,s BBQ with seating for over 200 it is perfect. So don't put it off, fill out your ENTRYFORM NOW AND GET IT IN THE POST you wont be disappointed attending a Nationals is something that you will remember forever. Cheers and see you in 9 weeks Greg Nationals Director |
