MG Car Club of South Australia PRESIDENTS REPORT From.. .Adrian Ward H i Members and Friends Over the last few weeks we have had the Weekender to Kangaroo Island, which was a fantastic event, thanks to Neil Stagg, event organiser, and to Wendy Sauer for her help in arranging accommodation and Ferry transport for the attendees. The Kimber Run organised by Berry and Rebecca Treffers, and Dick Manning had a new start venue and a finish at the Birdwood Motor Museum. You had your own choice of a coffee stop along the route, and it was a truly great day. Com- ment was received of a non-MG driver overtaking several MGB’s was the only negative for the day. Berry stated his wish to organise next year’s event, pos- sibly to Clare, thanks Berry. If you wish to partici- pate in the new year, please let me know. I would like to thank ALL the members who have been involved in the multitude of events and functions throughout 2017. Without your commitment and dedication to the Club and its members, these events and functions would not have been the success they were. In closing I wish you all a Merry Christ- mas and a very safe and Happy New Year. Keep on MG’ing.....!! Regards Adrian Ward President The Stewart Bowes Motorsport Night which was organised by Dick Manning with introduction by Ed Ordynski would have been run and for those in atten- dance I know you would have enjoyed yourselves. XMAS CLUBROOMS CLOSURE PLEASE NOTE THE CLUBROOMS WILL NOT BE OPEN ON THE FOLLOWING FRIDAYS By the time you receive your Magazine I would say the Christmas Dinner at the Club would be a sell-out, I do hope you booked your seats. DECEMBER 22ND DECEMBER 29TH JANUARY 5TH 2018 As the year draws to a close, we have the MGA Christmas Dinner, the Ade- laide Rally and the Motorsport Festival to get involved in. I do hope to see you out there in your MG soon. Our monthly “Feature Car” which we have displayed at the Club Monthly Meetings has worked well and thanks to Laurie for bringing along Jo’s “F” for us to admire at the November Monthly Meeting. We have an absolute stunner lined up for the December Meeting. 6
