President's Message

Alfisti,

We are more than half way through the year and will be holding the Alfa Club Winton 10HR in October (14^th & 15^th) and then in November (11^th & 12^th) we have Spettacolo: comprising the Concorso and a Dinner on Saturday; and the Show & Shine on Sunday at Wesley College in Glen Waverley. These are all great events for the Alfa enthusiast. Whether you are participating as a competitor, or just spectating, I encourage you all to attend with your Alfa(s).

Since June we expanded our social calendar. It now includes a regular bi-monthly Breakfast for New Members at Brunetti Classico where we welcome new members – an event that has received very positive feedback. We also held a new event: a night out at the Coburg Drive-In to see Gran Turismo. Over the next few months, we will have the annual Bocce Challenge with the Fiat Club, the Winton 10HR Social Dinner, and the Spettacolo Dinner.

In December we have the Club's annual Kids' Xmas Party & BBQ which includes a visit from Santa for the kids. The December Club Night is our traditional Club Xmas Party which includes supper & drinks.

This year's Competition events are well attended with members volunteering for training and assisting to make these events an ongoing success. The parade laps are always popular with a strong attendance with a range of classic, modern and new Alfa Romeos on the field in a controlled environment.

There has also been a variety of Register events recently, including drives to: Emerald; Corinella; and Warburton. The SUV Register will be hosting a drive from Eltham to Lancefield on Sunday 24^th September, and there will be a Mid-week Run through Mornington Peninsula in October.

Our Goldfields Chapter has also held several drives to: Broadford and Redesdale; and several weekend activities. The annual Grampians Gallivant is scheduled for 27^th -30^th October.

Stay safe & well, 

John Hanslow
