Title: Bunnings Bankstown - Father's Day Event - 30th August.
Post by: WILD56 on August 19, 2018, 12:15:44 PM

At the last club meeting a small event was mentioned for Thursday the 30th of August at Bunnings Bankstown. They are holding a father's day special.

The club was invited to attend with a handful of cars. I was one of the people that put their hand up to attend on the night.

Do we have any other information about this event? Do I need to call anyone and arrange anything?

At this stage I have no information to go on.

Thanks
Stan

Actually there has been a pretty good turn out in the past. Last year about 30 or so cars turned up so may be stronger this year. Could be worth a visit. Handy for me.... :thumb:

Stan,
it was Garth who raised this item and I'm not sure if he had any further details.
I managed to dig this up.


Garth - do you know anything further?

Both Gary and Stan shared some details at last nights meeting and Gary confirmed with Bunnings Weds morning that we will have between 6 and 8 cars going.
They would like people there as soon after 5pm as possible, no later than 5:45 as they will be putting the cars in the drive-thru area within the store and closing it off.

Just a short update about the evening.

The evening was a great success. The events coordinator at Bunnings (Jaqueline) would like to pass on her thanks to the club and was impressed that 7 cars turned up. It was apparently a big hit with the staff and the families that attended the event. She also mentioned that she would keep us in mind for future events and possibly pass our details onto other Bunnings stores for similar occasions.

I would like to personally thank the owners of the 7 cars that turned up tonight. Without you it would not have been the same.

Cheers
Stan & Gab
