Centre/Website updates for 2010

Hi Yorkies

The website has now been updated with the 2010 ride out destinations and the new competition for 2010.

The VSOC are running a Landmarks competition more information can be found at 'What's On > Landmarks Comp' or www.5staryorkies.org.uk/content/landmarks_2010.shtml

Update on rally numbers:

  • We have a good number attending Rally in A Chalet in February
  • 22 tickets sold for Phil and Angies Wedding / Jump start (I have tickets for this if you want any)
  • Good number of Yorkies and VSOC going to East Leeds Lions Easter Rally (see Chris or Maggi if you want a ticket)
  • 32 tickets sold to the Yorkies for the London Rally

Great support guys!

All our monies have been paid to companies ie Keycamp for France / travel lodge for Dover and the Cairn for the dinner dance, so its countdown time for these events.

I hope you will be able to make our meetings - next one at Ossett next Tuesday, we can see if the new landlord likes us and we like them !!!!

Regards,

Terry

Sad News from the VSOC

It is with sadness that I have to inform the Centre 5 membership that our friend Graeme “Grum” Hobbs passed away on Friday 1st January 2010 after a battle against illness. He will be sadly missed by his many friends here in the VSOC
Grum joined the VSOC in 1999 and became an active member in Centre 8 although living in Bath at the time. When he moved back to Coventry, he took up the gauntlet and joined the centre 8 committee as their original Merchandiser coming up with many funny Rally T Shirts and along with Roger devising the C8 Celtic Motif they now wear proudly on their jackets. He moved up to the north east which saw him join Centre 4 and become their Rep - attending as many events over the last 12 months when his health allowed.

Further details will be available as I get them.
