August 2001 - Part 3
MCC Founders Night
The MCC is 100 years old this year. The club is a little different to your average local Motor Club as it does not hold regular social events. How then to celebrate it's centenary, after all it won't happen for another 100 years!
The committee are promoting that members organise regional meetings, during the evening of Saturday 10th November for drinks and/or a meal. At 9pm the members will rise and drink a toast to the club.
Members have started to organise evening entertainment in their area and the MCC President would like to hear from others to take the idea further down the organisational road, e-mail John Aley.
