Hi all,
Please see below the itineray for Sundays charity event - I think we should all meet up at Dakota South Queensferry at 7.45 for an 8am departure. That will then get us there for about 8.45am latest. I know, an early start for those coming from Glasgow but I'm sure it'll be worth it! There are still a few spaces available so let me know asap if you would like to come along and display your Porsche, failing that, you can always have a leisurely day out at the event and come along later!

Either contact me on KGVance@aol.com or txt/phone me on 07738 360 370.

The following web link shows a map with directions to the event:

As you can see there is overwhelming support for this event from all Main Dealers and other Owner's Clubs and enthusiasts.

As previously mentioned, all cars will be displayed under cover in the event of poor weather.



WHEN YOU NEED TO TURN UP
We need you to arrive at Balvaird Farm sometime between 0700-0845 latest on Sunday 17th July, that's a week this coming Sunday, the earlier the better as we have well over 100 vehicles to park display style in several buildings/areas and we need to accomplish this by 0900 latest. Mark and Peter will be there from 0700 to greet you all.

LOCATION
Full site address follows, it is quite simple to reach, if you get lost find the Bein Inn at Glenfarg, take the slip road that runs alongside up the hill (A912) and the entrance to Balvaird Farm can be found circa ¾ mile on the left; it will be extremely well signposted on the day.

There's still one space available as Brian has pulled out, so if you want to come, turn up at Dakota tomorrow.

See you all in the morning, bring your folding chairs, and a morning paper! One last thing, pray tonight for dry weather!!

This was a lovely day out. Great weather, lots of nice cars (quite a lot of different ones too, not the usual suspects!) and plenty of other non-car stuff to enjoy as well. I hope it happens again.
