Social Snapshot : November 2016
Well the National Meeting is done and dusted and we hope everyone had an enjoyable time. The countryside was looking splendid with the green fields and some Salvation Jane still in flower The weather improved as the week went on and was fine for all activities. The Show & Shine in Auburn attracted a good number of locals and many members came up for the day from Adelaide. The Clare Country Club provided good accommodation and it was nice to be in the one place for the week. The programme for the week was well accepted and very diverse from Competition, Gardens, Wineries, Bungaree, Burra and the Railway Heritage Museum in Peterborough. Something for everyone with good quiet roads.
Congratulations to those who won trophies at the Day of Triumph on 9th October. Despite the wind and the forecast of rain there were around 40 cars in attendance and all the judging was completed and everyone managed to get home before the rain started.
The Christmas Dinner is now fast approaching and it would be great to see all the Day of Triumph Winners in attendance to receive their trophy. The Royal Adelaide Golf Club is a great venue with secure parking and the service and food is always excellent, which is why we keep returning. Last payments are due by the November meeting please, so we can confirm numbers with the venue.
The mid week run on 9th November is a mystery to us, but Stephen is organising it and the advert is in the magazine.
Also the All Triumph Rally, which this year is being organised by Alex & Sue (last year’s winners), is on 20th November – let’s hope for some decent weather. The destination is also a mystery but there is a Club Sponsored BBQ for lunch.
Next year’s social calendar has been drafted but if anyone has any suggestions of places to go, things to see, please let Peggy or myself know.
