On the 23rd of July we held our annual David Warren classic car tour, it is in aid of the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance. We have raised over £8585 for them from our classic tours over the years, something we are all incredibly proud of. We started in Glastonbury at the Abbey tea rooms for a divine breakfast, Mary Parker and her staff donate all the food and their time to this great cause to help us raise as much as possible, a huge thank-you must go to them. We had signing on, tour packs issued and a chin wag before setting off on a 65 mile route of Somerset. This year the weather was a bit hit and miss, how ever it stayed dry enough for everyone to set off on the amazing route which Chris and Sue House had spent a long time planning.
The finish this year was at Batch Country House for a roast lunch, we were joined by more than 30 other guests to help celebrate the clubs 70th anniversary. These people were old members, friends and a couple of special guests, the Mayor of Burnham on Sea - Lesley Millard and a representative from the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance - Anita Townsend. Over all we had over 130 people at the finish venue, I think that's a record and the most at a social event for a very, very long time.
The Mayor of Burnham on sea went outside and had a good look around the cars to choose a car of the day, she chose car number 4 which was - Richard Board and his Morris Marina, Well done Richard!!
We hope you had a lovely day and enjoyed all the celebrations, we cant wait to raise some more money next year.
Thanks,
BOSMC
