Posted November 14, 20168 yr http://www.rafmuseum.org.uk/cosford/whats-going-on/events/car-rallies-at-cosford-2017/ What do you think? should I arrange this for next year.... could be a good day, free museum, promotion of the club etc. Maybe get some of the other JAP sports car clubs to attend, 3000GT and Supra??
November 14, 20168 yr that looks like it could be a nice venue for an AGM and annual meet and still fairly centrally located, nice find. although if the prices are a little out of our reach, it is definitely worth some enquiries for a standard meet instead.

November 23, 20168 yr Author Email below regarding the AGM info requested. Hi Steve I have directed this email to both of you as we are not quite sure what happened with your original emails! but my colleague Louise has forwarded me your enquiries so please find attached a proposal based on my understanding of your requirements along with the current catering options.

November 23, 20168 yr Thanks for looking into this Steve and you could end up being an events organiser for us. Prices are high when compared to the hire of room and food at Coventry but nice to have another option.
November 23, 20168 yr Author My pleasure but as a club meet might go it could still be a viable place, different to the norm.
December 12, 20168 yr Author They have also said that if we want to have some guided tour of the museum for 2-2 half hours they can arrange this at a cost. Maybe something to look at if you are interested....
