Dinner Meeting 7th May 2024
Marion Hotel Dinner 7th May This month’s dinner was in the Terrace room at the Marion Hotel. We were lucky to get a separate room for this month’s dinner as it is becoming increasingly difficult to book a room these days without having to pay a significant deposit thanks again to the Hammonds for their work securing another great venue.

All British Day 2024
All British Day 2024 This year’s event was the 40 th anniversary of the event which started as a picnic day at St Clair in 1984 moved to Uraidla, then outgrew that venue and since 2013 has been held at Echunga with a breakfast at nearby Mylor which serves as a meeting point for many clubs, around 800 vehicles attended with all profits going to charities. The event also celebrated the 90 th anniversary of the Sporting Car Club where we hold our meetings. This year a dozen members entered the event and it was very pleasing to see some new cars and some that had been in restoration for many years on display.

Coonawarra & Grampians Run 20th March 2024
Coonawarra & Grampians Run 2024 Following the over-whelming success of Grant & Bronte Trotters Flinders Ranges run last year they teamed up with Rod & Helen Bishop to produce an equal or better run by doing it a couple of times before hand to get the timing right (zealots). Wednesday 20 th of March we met at the Crafers Hotel we headed of collecting the Hillier’s Smeaton’s and Hammonds at Wistow first stop was at Langhorn Creek where David Hillier’s bonnet was lifting, that grill in six cylinder bonnets is perfect for tying them down with the binder twine farmer David produced from his boot. With no further problems we had morning tea at Meningie followed by a trouble free run to Penola using some of the lesser highways to avoid the traffic where we were joined by Anton Hardeman a friend of many in the club from Portland in his Cobra. That night we celebrated Bronte Trotter and Peter Schembrie’s birthdays at the local pub. Thursday morning it was off to the Yallum Park homestead a mansion built by John Riddock a prominent local politician for a guided tour by the owner then on to the Ottelia restaurant for lunch a wander through the historic parts of Penola and some of the Smeaton’s wine for the evening. Friday morning it was off to the Grampians via the Mannon Falls minus the water then Dunkeld Bakery for lunch at the turn off David Hillier’s clutch gave out but the local mechanic who was easy on the eye according to the girls had him back on the road after lunch and on to Halls Gap. Saturday was a wander around the area meet for lunch then a tour of the beautiful heritage Seppelts Great Western cellars, dinner at Barney’s bar a converted shearing shed in the center of what only weeks before had been the Grampians bushfires to which the proceeds of Paul Bradley’s raffles were contributed. Next morning, we were off again for a run to the Murtoa stick shed from the outside a big bulk handling shed but on the inside it revealed its amazing construction with 560 Mountain Ash poles up to 80 feet high supporting the roof, built to store surplus grain during WW2. The Woods farming machinery museum was another gem discovered by our organizer’s with a huge collection of all types of machinery and lunch supplied then onto Horsham. Sunday it was off to Goroke to visit the painted silos with lunch and farewells at Keith and a big thank you to the Trotters and Bishops for organizing the run.
