Well we've made it through, despite being a small club we have come out the other side with numbers staying on an even keel. Over the last few months we have been able to have an AGM a weekend away, several meals out and visits to interesting places.
As we look forward to the rest of 2022 we are developing a series of interesting events. We have just held our 59th Annual Dinner in Shifnal. Our next event is in Tenbury Wells followed by a short stay in Herefordshire. upcoming events include a drive and treasure hunt, a visit to Wythall, picnics and pub meals ending the year with our AGM.
Lets make this a great year and enjoy our cars for as long as we can.
Lockdown!
We were so lucky to manage one more fantastic event before the November 2020 Lockdown. This took place at Weston Park in Shropshire. 12 of us arrived in style for a leisurely walk around the park and ride on the train before a fantastic meal in a dedicated room. The service, food choice and value for money were brilliant. It was the first time in a long while that we had met and been able to have a good natter.
We are now in May 2021 and just starting to think about events again.
We have fixed dates in the calendar for the rest of the year. These will be confirmed nearer the time, Covid restrictions allowing.
Well what a year, who would have know how it would pan out. The year started well with our post Christmas, eat as much as you can buffet, at the Summer House near Kingswood. We had a really good turn- out, with several us arriving in style.
Our next outing in March took us to the Tap House , Hartelbury, an old railway station. Again we had a good attendance with lots of light- hearted chatter.
We left looking forward to the our next event the week-end near Stratford on Avon.
Then Covid hit and like the rest of the world we took to shielding and following the Governments guidelines.
It was exactly 5 months later in August when 6 of our members managed to get together for a picnic!
One huge success this year was our visit to Shelesly Walsh in September. it was fantastically organised by the venue, all Covid safe with the added pleasure of being able to take our lovely cars up the hill. We even managed a cream tea in the grounds. A real highlight.
We are hoping that the next two events will also go ahead as planned, but who knows!
