We were glad to be able to support the Tenterfield Show on three days with up to 22 cars in attendance. Thanks members and thanks also to those members who were part of our Meals on Wheels commitment for February.

Following our March meeting 18 members in nine cars and one motor bike went on a run to Ballandean which included (for some) tthe Wallangarra Markets, the beautiful Bramble Patch Gardens and lunch at the Ballandean Tavern. It was raining on the way home and I believe that Dianne was worried she would have to sit on the bonnet of Bruce’s old car to work the wipers!

Members are reminded that cars will be needed for the ANZAC march in April.

New members are always welcome but remember, your car must be at least 30 years old. We meet on the first Sunday of the month in the old Band Hall at 9.30. Next meeting will be onApril 8 due to Easter.

Contact President Bob on (02) 6736 5682 for further information.
