Singleton Street Machines Show & Christmas Party 13th & 14th December 03
Show 'n' Shine and Events Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th
This event promises to be one of the biggest events held in Newcastle this year.
The event is being run by the Singleton Street Machines club as part of their 5th Annual Show 'n' Shine, an event that is growing bigger and better every year.
This year in addition to the usual Show 'n' Shine and Sound Off, additional events are to be run including Grass Events (Spear a Spud and Motorkhana), Live Band Entertainment and Overnight Camping. See the attachments for more details.
We have been invited by the Singleton Street Machines club to participate in all events along side their club. Our members have also been offered a discount on events if we can get some sizeable numbers participating from the club.
So as to get an idea of numbers, I would therefore like to ask interested members to complete the attached entry form and post to the FPV-Tickford Club of NSW - Newcastle Branch post box: PO Box 8 Wickham NSW 2293. But at this stage do not send any money as we are likely to get a discount, so the final price will be determined later.
Also reply to this thread when the entry form has been completed signed and sent.
The itinerary for each day has not be finalised by the Singleton Street Machines Club, but I have been told that the Show 'n' Shine is on the Saturday and the Grass Events and an Unjudged Car Display are on the Sunday. I will post up the itinerary when available.
As a reminder, we are not allowed to take any of our own alcohol to any of these events, but I have been assured that alcohol prices are to be close to retail. This is a requirement that has been imposed on the Singleton Street Machines club in hosting the events.
All members from FPV-Tickford Club of NSW and branches are welcome.
Christmas Party Saturday Night 13th
As well as this above event, we are also taking the opportunity to have a club Christmas party.
Because this is your party, I would like some feedback as to how and where you would like to have the Christmas party in Singleton.
Some possibilities include (but not limited to) are a spit roast for members held at the show camping grounds to beers and dinner at one of the local motels. In fairness a majority vote will rule.
We are strongly encouraging members who are attending the Christmas party to organise sleeping arrangements in Singleton.
For this members have basically two options, which we will both run:
1. For those that want to rough it and take the cheaper alternative, camp at the Singleton show ground. For this we hope to get members grouped together and hopefully roped off. Note there are some powered sites available.
Again, hold off on payment for now for the camping sites, because we may be able to negotiate a discount off the price. But complete the form and return to the FPV-Tickford Club of NSW - Newcastle Branch post box: PO Box 8 Wickham NSW 2293, so we can get ideas of numbers.
2. For others, stay at one of the motels in Singleton. We have already negotiated a 20% discount off the standard room rate at the motel: Charbonnier Hallmark Inn phone number (02) 6572 2333.
With discount, price will be $108 per standard room per night. We also have the option to get a 15% discount off dining in the restaurant.
I have been told that there is no deadline to book at the motel, but of course the earlier you book the more likely you can get a room. Remember to mention you are from the club and confirm the discount arrangement when booking.
Please make bookings and payments directly with the motel.
To give an idea of numbers, could interested members please reply to this thread and suggest your idea for the Christmas party as well as indicate your likely sleeping arrangement.
All members from FPV-Tickford Club of NSW and branches are welcome.
