January / February 2019 BAY SHEFFIELD PROCLAMATION DAY 2018 T he Club received a request to pro- vide four cars for this event at Colley Reserve, Glenelg on 28 Decem- ber 2018. The forecast was for 39 degrees, but within half a kilometre of Glenelg the temperature dropped to a very accept- able level and there was a strong sea breeze, bad for the competitors running into it, but good for us. There were two TC’s, Athur Ruediger and Dick Man- ning, and Berry Treffers and Alan Card- nell arrived in MGB’s. I will let the photos tell the story, four MG’s requested but fourteen bodies to fit in. Occupational Health and Safety representatives were fortunately not at the event. Some impressive young athletes raced on the day. There was also a Celebrity Race, and, being an avid Crows fan, I have included a photo of the winner, Cam Ellis Youlman from the Adelaide Football Club. Well done Cam. Sandra A Cardnell 21
