June 2025

Hello Members,

For those who came on the Club run to the Beechmont Markets – finally no rain. What a great day for a drive through the picturesque scenery of the Gold Coast Hinterland.

The markets - even though they were small due to the recent wet weather - were still pretty good.  I think the best stall was the Cookies lady (boy were they nice!).

 I would have to say if you are ever up that way you should also call into the Cafe we went to, after the markets - good prices, great food, and the scenery is spectacular even the Cafe. To the members who came along for a drive through the Gold Coast to show off our cars, like me, I hope you had a great time doing it. 

A few of us went out to Dalby for the Swap Meet a couple of weeks ago. We had a great time with the weather finally being great for it. We met a lot of people doing up Monaro’s. I can’t believe how many people own Monaro’s out there.

I was thinking that if they still do a car show there, then it would be good to go for a weekend stay and car show display.

This month is full on with our outings calendar, with three different runs happening. First, we have the June 15th Tom’s Kellis Run. Then on June 22nd we have the Wivenhoe Dam Prez Day, and June 29th is our Club organised Ipswich Swap Meet. 

Next month we will be going to Jumpers & Jazz in Warwick.  For those that came along last year, you have your rooms booked and for others that would like to go for a weekend away let me know as I have a couple of rooms available.  Also, if you came last year and are not coming this year, then please let me know asap. 

So, I will see you all out there at the various June 2025 Runs. 

Drive safe,

Graig Keene
