Our club has again received an official invitation from the Austin 7 Club and we have received
A limited number of tickets for Saturday and Sunday to display our FE-FC’s for FREE.
Tickets will be distributed on a first come first served basis and I’m sure they’ll be popular.

There is a designated camping area at the track with modern toilet and shower facilities and a BBQ area however, the sites are unpowered but you can bring a generator. I’ve been told there is plenty of room so no urgency to pre-book and it costs around $25 per head per night, with children about half that price.

Please let us know at the May meeting if you plan to attend, a sheet will be available and you can note if you will be camping at the track. Alternatively you can text Derrick on 0416 200 978 or email Derrick  droberts@airmaster.com.au if you are planning to attend.
