MGCC South East Summer Gathering - August 12th

[TimM]

Our regular trip to the MG r Club South East Summer Gathering takes place on Sunday 12th August this year.

All the usual fun of the fair at this event once again from Pride of Ownerships to Gymkhanas to Autotests and of course the fantastic F register summer games no less !

This year it's at Cobham Hall house and gardens in Kent (on the A2 between Gravesend and Rochester) - admission to the SG includes admission to the house itself.

To join us all you need do is complete tha application form which is to be found here .....

Tim,
hopefully we'll be there, as Rhona has to defend her title!

[TimM]

Should be another good day out - don't forget to get your applications in though - Autotests, POO, Gymkhana and we do our own awarsd as well don't forget - I know it's the week after MGFest but hopefully you won't be too MGF exhausted to support our local centre !!

Are you doing the autotest this year Tim?

[Adrian Clifford]

I've already entered.

[ianhunter]

Liz and I will be at this one but cannot send in the application until we get back from Malta on the 31st.

Is it too late to register for the SE Summer Gathering? I tend to leave everything to the last minute. Should change that really.

Hi Tristan,
From my experience the MGCC SouthEast centre will do their best to accommodate advance entries to the last possible moment (I'm a bit last-minute myself!); there are a couple of phone contact nos on their events webpage - see www.mgcars.org.uk/mgccse/events.html
I'm almost certain you'll be welcome to just turn up on the day, but give Doug or Pauline a ring and they'll see you right.

I'm sure TimM'll be along shortly to tell you his plan for a South-East eFfers run in to the event, failing that a pm to him should do the trick.

The annual SE Centre's Summer Gatherings are sizeable meets featuring almost every type of MG old and new, with activities during the day - this one should be a great day out.

However I'll be in Scotland sans KKE, while the biggest MG event in the South-East takes place a mere 10 minute drive from where I live - practically on my doorstep!

[tristan]

Thanks David.
I'll give Doug or Pauline a bell later. Don't want to miss it because i couldn't sort myself out in time!
Enjoy your time in Scotland.

Just wanted to ask a quick question. I've not registered my car with MGFCC (YET) or any other club, do you have to be a member to go to any of the events especially this one cos i would love to go just a bit worried about filling the form out getting to the event and being turned away. cheers Joe

[Adrian Clifford]

Joey, the application form usually asks for your membership number to take part, however I very much doubt that an MG will be turned away from the parking areas. Call Pauline via the details given by David, I'm sure she will answer your questions and I hope to see you there.

The picnic basket is packed ;D We are joining the run from Godstone which seemed like a good idea until I saw we had to be there for 9am. Lets hope the weather is as good as it was at MGFest need to top up the lobster colour

[tristan]

I apologise if the answer is already prominently displayed somewhere on the forum but where and when is the meeting point for the run to the summer gathering on sunday?
I know its from Godstone but thats all.

Tristan

[Adrian Clifford]

It's the public car park by the pond on Godstone Green.

[tristan]

Thanks Adrian. Any idea what time?
