MG Car Club of South Australia
PRESIDENTS REPORT
From.. .Adrian Ward
H
i Members and Friends
Good news to hear about "New
Spot MG" opening up in Adelaide. Peter
Coulson is keeping in touch with this one
- watch this space ......
equals a good strong
Club! Think about who
you might like to nominate.
Past Events - two events that will have
occurred by the time you read this
Magazine are the MGB Register Night
at Wiltshires, and the Ferrari Nat Meet
at "The Bend". I know they would have
both been successful events.
Regalia - keep in mind we need some-
one to take care of our Regalia sales.
Please talk about this position with your
fellow Club members.
Kimber Run - so far we have 74 en-
trants, and are looking for a lot more
entrant support for this prestigious Club
event. Berry has devoted a lot of time
and effort into organizing the Kimber
Run and he deserves to be rewarded
with a healthy list of entrants. It's not too
late to enter your MG and be part of this
annual event to recognize and pay trib-
ute to Cecil Kimber and the history of the
Marque.
Late News - last night (Friday 11th Oc-
tober) we attended the Tribute to Garry
Chapman organized by Dick Manning,
and had Ed Ordinski interviewing Garry
on his Rallying career. Ed's preparation
as per usual was "first class" as he
compared his era and Garry's era in
Rallying, and the contrasts were amaz-
ing. Ed successfully kept the evening on
a light hearted note. WOW!! consider-
able work had gone into making this
event such a success, with an audience
nudging 70 Club Members and friends it
WAS REALLY that good !! Garry was
accompanied by his lovely wife Jenice
and his daughter Ashlee who wore a
skirt made and worn by Jenice to the
Inaugural MGCC SA Meeting way back
when. The slide-show along with
Garry's commentary were wonderful,
most entertaining and informative, 10
out of 10 Garry. Thanks to Peter Coul-
son for being "production Manager". We
are very lucky as a Club to have such
accomplished Members in our midst.
The Weekender - thank you to Barb and
Wendy for their efforts in organizing this
event which is now fully subscribed.
Their hard work and dedication has
been rewarded. We are very much look-
ing forward to an enjoyable weekend,
hope you are too.
Christmas Function - don't forget we are
limited to 100 attendees, Club Members
are at no cost for the meal, and visitors
are $25.00 per head. Drinks are at your
own cost from the bar. The response to
the menu last year was quite favorable,
so it is to remain the same for this year's
event.
Hoping to see you soon in your MG....
Keep on MG'ing...!!
AGM - it is about this time of the year
that we need to start thinking about next
year's Committee. The AGM is probably
the most important meeting of the year,
remember a good strong Committee
Regards
Adrian Ward
