EVENTS HELD ANNUALLY ARE AS FOLLOWS
(those marked with an asterisk are perpetual trophy events)
**Vintage 100 - this event's history stems from the very early days of the club. Members did a timed trial run of 100 miles.
In more recent years we have made this a 100 kms,
untimed run and members are required to answer questions along the route or at
the lunch stop destination. This event is usually set by the winners of the
previous year or if this is not possible by a volunteer.

Car Christenings - this is held annually, if feasible - we usually wait until there is a minimum of 5 cars. The vehicles are welcomed into the club with the owners taking a vow to look after and appreciate their vehicles. These vehicles are both ones of new members and of existing members buying a different vehicle. The health of the vehicle is toasted.

**President's Run - this is, as the title indicates, set by the President. Only he/she knows the format and destination. The members compete for the Leo Collins Trophy.

** Motorkana - this is a fun day of games held at a static site with the winner of each section accumulating points. The winner ultimately receives the Bruce Tweedie Trophy.

Biggest Morning tea - this is held each year in May as a fundraising event for the Cancer Council. It is hosted at a member's home and invitations are sent out to other local clubs to join us. Apart from the members of this club, our main supporters are the South Coast Vintage Car Club. Each year we have raised in excess of $500 and it is growing as time goes by.

Trivia night - As our main fundraising for the club we have been holding a Trivia night. This again is strongly support by the South Coast Club and each year more and more members are rallying behind this event as word gets around what a fun night we have, with prizes donated by members and friends of the club.

Christmas Party - this is for the adult members of the club and is held at the start of December. It is a night of good food, good company with a few silly games thrown in.

Breakfast BBQ - Since the early 70's, it has been tradition in the club to have a breakfast bbq on the Sunday in between Christmas and New Year or as decided by the members if these days should fall on the weekend. We usually alternate with a venue north and south of Wollongong so as to not have the same group disadvantaged all the time.
