For over 37 years the club has organised the Annual Picnic at Hanging Rock Show.
An event originally run once to allow club members and some friends from other clubs an opportunity to meet for a picnic in the park with their families – it has now become one of – if not the – biggest one day Classic Motoring exhibition days in Victoria with over 1,600 vehicles on display last year at the picturesque Hanging Rock Reserve just outside of Woodend in the Macedon Ranges.
The event is open for display vehicles of all makes, models, marques and styles with the only criteria being that it must be 25 years or older, able to be driven to the event, and of course it must be someone’s pride and joy.
So – you will see a Mercedes next to a mini, a Bentley next to a bug, Jaguars of all shapes and sizes, the Toyo girls and boys as well as Rollers, a Delorian near to a Datsun, an Austin 7 next to an Alfa and so it goes. And just for something different, some stationary engines, commercial vehicles, and of course a swarm of 2 wheeled classics (bikes) as well as displays from sponsors, a market and entertainment for the kids (of all ages)
Held on the Second Sunday in February this is one event to lock into your fun calendar straight away.
