Yes, you're right.  Garth had made mention of this to me too.

I double checked and the weekend of the 19th is correct.

Good Evening Members  :hi:

Yes, it's almost that time again when we head to Albury for our Muscle Cars on the Murray weekend.  This year we will be leaving Sydney on Friday 19 May and returning either Sunday 21 or Monday 22 May (depending upon your availability).  An itinerary will be issued very soon once details confirmed.

For those of you who are interested in taking part in this fantastic weekend, all you need to do is book your accommodation with Quality Resort Siesta (Phone: 6025 4555) and mention you are with the AMCCA.

If you have booked your accommodation, this is what we need from you:
1.  the number of people coming from your family
2.  your t-shirt size/s


We are the process of finalising the artwork for the t-shirts and will be ordering them over the next few weeks.

We look forward to hearing from you at your very earliest convenience.  Thank you!

Kind regards

Vanessa Goldstein
AMCCA Secretary (on behalf of the AMCCA Committee)

Come on guys this is a great weekend. last year was my families first year my wife is really not into the car thing but by check out time last year Michelle was nagging me to make sure I booked for this year. If this is not an endorsement I don't know what is, the committee and Steve the owner of the motel and the staff put A lot of time and effort into this weekend. support there efforts and come along to one of the best events the Amcca organise each year. The more cars in the convoy going there and back the more fun it is isn't this why we have these cars.

After seeing the weather forecast I have been working on the Velcro bucket/pants  for my windscreen leak. Don't think the towel will cut it for this length of trip.
Mr Vice President are we meeting at the same spot as last year and if so what time are u thinking

Cars fr our club, from Griffith & from Albury area & of course Melbourne - about 45 cars in total. Those who are unable to be here are missing a great wend.  :she: you should really try to get here next year - we have just booked for 2018...  :pepper:

We just got back from another fantastic weekend in Albury (and back to reality unfortunately  :cry:)

It was yet another successful weekend filled with great conversation and story telling, cruising, eating, laughing, oh and eating  :rol:

Thank you to all who came along for the ride - it's the people that make the weekend such fun, creating friendships along the way  :exactly:

Most of us have already rebooked for next year - the dates will be Friday 18 May to Sunday 20 May 2018 (you can leave on the Monday if you wish).

A very special thank you goes out to Steve Jones from Quality Resort Siesta who organised another enjoyable weekend including the observation run on Saturday.  Steve's staff did a wonderful job looking after us in every possible way - you are a credit to your establishment.

Looking forward to seeing the pics and reliving wonderful memories  :cool:

Until next year...

 :thank: Just a footnote to the above - a HUGE thankyou to everyone from this Club (and several from the 60's AMCC & the Griffith folk) for the warmth & kindness you all showed to my mum & dad this weekend. Dad had a birthday he will NEVER forget and they were in tears on Mon nite telling us about the time they had and how welcome they felt.

It's the little things like this that really MAKE a Club - not the politics & notoriety shown within other Clubs. We will be forever grateful to all of you for welcoming them (just don't blame me when they come back...  :thud:) This Club's members have hearts bigger than the cars they represent...  THANK YOU  :exactly:

Yes, Mark and I were talking about Albury this afternoon as we have booked rooms (like you have), and Archie is booked for his accommodation.

A reply from the committee would be great so we can get our lives organised.

I'm also happy to prepare a poster for our website and forum.

Hi all yes we will be doing the Albury trip again as I am one of those that booked last year we briefly discussed at the last committee meeting and put the organising off till we all got over the silly season. It will be top of the agenda at the next meeting as I realise this is not a small event to organise. So we'll be calling in a little direction from the previous committee if that's ok thanks all
