Monthly Newsletter of the Wairarapa Branch of the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand May 2021
From the Chair Greetings All, We were all saddened by the news of the passing of Mary Buick, one of the founder members of our Branch. For over 50 years she has served the Branch in several roles and still joined in enthusiastically with Branch activities. It was great to see so many VCC members at her funeral and we will indeed miss her. On a brighter note, we have one Club night to go before our AGM on Monday June 14th, and we hope that we will get a good turn-out for both meetings. You will find a nomination form included with this Zenith, along with a brief outline of the tasks assigned to each position. We have a very able Committee, but there is always room for ‘new blood’ and we would encourage anyone who would like to contribute to put their name forward. Further to the cancellation of the National Motorcycle Rally last month, I was asked by the Committee to offer to host the 2025 Rally when I attended the National Executive Meeting, which offer I conveyed to the Club. The hosting will be confirmed at the AGM in August. I hope that Chris’s reminder about the Reliability Trial has bourne fruit and that Willie now has a good line-up for what sounds like an interesting weekend. From all accounts, it sounds like the trip to White Rock joining with the Wellington Branch
