Hello to all,
Next meeting will be at 7.30pm Wednesday 26th May, 2021. Bistro open before and bar open after.
Notice of AGM on Wednesday 7th July, 2021 at 7.30pm. Time to nominate or submit motions.
Unique Vehicle Display at RMYC on this Sunday, 23rd May. We now have a record 108 entries (now closed) so we are guaranteed a great display as in previous years. In the event of inclement weather and cancellation, all entrants will be notified by email on Saturday evening.
RMYC bistro and bar will be open all day.
We encourage all 424 members to attend this great display! It is our annual show case event! Please use the sign on sheet at the entry gate to record your attendance and gain Michael Andrews trophy points.
Volunteers can help staff the entry gates or assist in directing vehicles to their spaces before 9am.
Award presentation will be indoors, commencing at 2pm.
Immediately prior to awards an auction will be held to sell two historic “Pittwater” number plate attachments which are new “old stock” and unavailable since 2016. In the “old days” the Club registrar would issue number plates and these club attachments were screwed to the number plate to identify your club. These were found recently amongst our old regalia supplies by member Jeff Tinker. Bid well – all funds going to our charities.
Awards for each category + People’s Choice, Commodore’s Choice and Best Vehicle of the Show.
(Bob Radnich Trophy)
Please donate to our important local charities; Bear Cottage (Kids with cancer) and Marine Rescue, Church Point and Cottage Point. These local charities have had their usual fund raising ventures devastated by Covid restrictions since early last year but their “customers” were still in need of their services. We urge all to be generous but even small sums add up. Your choices – entry donation in cash on the day and/or electronic transfer to Pittwater Motor Enthusiasts account with reference Unique Vehicle Display (+ name voluntary) BSB 062-205 ACC 1046 7182
