    Background

    • The AGM is scheduled for Sunday May 18 in Christchurch (as per our normal programme).
    • This year’s AGM marks the 30th anniversary of the Federation’s founding in 1995.
    • The AGM itself will be preceded with special 30th anniversary celebration activities on Saturday May 17.
    • Along with all clubs, we especially would love to have as many representatives from inaugural 1995 member clubs attend the 30th year celebration as possible.  The foundation president Carl Pedersen will be in touch with the inaugural clubs.
    • The overall plan is to achieve a new standard of interest, activity and engagement given the progress that the Federation has achieved. eg. the NZ Historic and Classic Vehicle Survey, recent WoF announcements, etc.
    • We need to lift the organisation to a new level and need your commitment and help!
