Our 2021 Regional Day

Our Regional Day Car Show

Looks like normality will have resumed by August, so plans are well underway for our show. This will take place at Sandown Airport on Sunday 15th August 2021. Unfortunately, Keith and Roger are unable to play such an active role in show preparations this year, so we are asking for club members to come along and help with the setting up on Saturday 14th August. We will be providing refreshments in the form of bacon baps, hot dogs with veggie options, served up with tea or coffee, as a thank you for your time and effort. So please, please put this date in your diary, we are going to need lots of help. Thank you.
