Hello fellow Sprite Club Members,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The current crisis is probably affecting our club more than each of yours but with most activities shut down I thought it would be good to get an update from each of you as to how your clubs are going that I could put in our next magazine. Just a to show the Australian Sprite Clubs aren’t isolating from each other!!Just to kick things off:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hello from the ‘Stage 4 State’\u00a0\"😉\"\u00a0and greetings from all our members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here in Victoria we had a small burst of club activity in June and early July as the pandemic situation appeared to be improving but it wasn’t to last and now our beloved cars are gathering dust again. Jack De Bruijne usually runs a mid-week drive during winter for those members\u00a0who have retired. Despite having a knee operation that stopped him from leading a couple of the drives they went ahead as ‘Jackless’ drives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our indefatigable Soc Sec (Chris Crombie) managed to get in a couple of social drives as well. One of them was a Sunday drive to Billanook Winery in the Yarra Valley which I was able to join and blow away most of the cobwebs – for both me and my car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chris had a tour arranged in September to the Western District to visit all the painted silos but that has just had to be cancelled, or at least postponed until next year. We’re all keeping our fingers crossed our end of year dinner will be able to go ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All our members are safe and well which is the main thing. I hope your clubs are ‘riding the wave’ and that all your members and their families are also safe and well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cheers
