Hi Guys and Gal's

Well it looks like I have undertaken the task of getting KVG's web pages up and running, as well as events co-ordinating, calendar and contacts. Still, I'm sure with all your help, there will be overwhelming input from the rest of you, so we can keep this up to date!

If any one wishes to contribute, organise an event, or just arrange an informal meet or run, I am sure any one of the committee will be glad of your help and support.

EVENT NEWS

MAY CLUB NIGHT 7th. May club night also included our regular annual Clean Car competition. The weather was dry, and there was a good turnout of cars. Joe Douthwaite took first prize, while Michael Field and Bill Bourne came joint second.

BASINGSTOKE FESTIVAL. 11th May Again we were blessed with good weather, and had 16 TR's, including TS2 on our stand.

BEALE PARK BOAT SHOW 6th - 8th June. We had an excellent turnout for this event, 10 TR's fron KVG, plus 4 TR's mainly from Chiltern group.

MERLEY WEEKEND. This will be our third visit to Wimborne, and we are again camping at Merley Court, the same venue as 2004. This year's visit coincides with Wimborne Festival, an event not to miss! Friday evening we have an area of the clubhouse booked, where food and skittles will be available, when we hope the Dorset's will accept our challenge to try and beat us. Saturday will include, for those who wish to, a trip into Wimborne for the Festival, where there is street entertainment, music in most (if not all) pubs, etc., and possibly a meal or BBQ afterwards. Sunday we will have a photo shoot in front of Merley House with the Dorset Group, then a run to West Bay, finishing at a Steam Rally. This event is still in the planning stages, so more details will follow shortly, but.....

We have only THREE CAMPING PLACES LEFT, for Merley weekend, (unless you wish to find a local B&B) so if you want to join in, please book with me A.S.A.P. If these spaces are not taken soon by KVG members, I will offer them to other groups. Other groups, if you are interested, get in touch... kvg-tr-events@talktalk.net

A trip to RAMSBURY BREWERY is now on the calendar for this summer. It will be a sunday event, and will include a visit to Crofton Beam Engines in steam. More details on the calendar......but please note, the date has been changed to 29th June

For dates and venues of any of the above, and other events, click on the "future events" tag, and for more details of venues, go to our google calendar.

OTHER NEWS

We now have a KVG gazebo, so if you are going to an event and need this, just ask a committee member.

Peter Heywood has unfortunately damaged his achilles heel and is mainly wheelchair or crutches confined for a while. A card has been sent on behalf of KVG, and we wish him well and speedy recovery.

Well, that's it for now, I think, other than to say - may the recent good weather last!
