Nene Valley Rotary club has invited us to show our cars at the Spring Bank Holiday Country Fair - Monday 30th May. This is to be held in the grounds of Althorp in Northamptonshire, the family home of the Spencers.
We have been asked to display a collection of cars from the Porsche range and we are trying to secure apporximately a dozen.
We would like to try and and get volunteers to spend the day at Althorp and put their Porsche on display, in a cordoned off area. Essentially for viewing only. We would like to get a mix of vehicles, any models any age.
Because we are putting a ring round the vehicles we hope to ensure that visitors can see the cars, but the cars won't suffer from sticky fingers, bubble gum and ice-cream accidents.
At present we are planning to put up a gazeebo, or similar, which can offer information about Porsche and Porsche Club GB and there will be someone around during the day to look after this area. We are working on ideas for fund raising at the event as well. We have yet to draw our conclusions on this but are still happy to accept any new thoughts at the moment.
We are expecting that those displaying cars will have free access and we are also trying to negotiate a reduced rate for any PCGB members who simply want to attend the event.
So volunteers please!
I have put up a web page which I'll keep updated with more information as it becomes available.
