With our newly extended membership we hope to see a good turn out, again this is your opportunity to air your views and let us know what events you would like to see the Centre organising. We have over the year expanded the events programme to introduce three shows this year, along with supporting events organised by other organisations which we think will be of interest to members.
We recognise that not all members are looking for the same thing, hence the reason to expand our activities, also this year we have been approached by a group of members who wish to enter a team for the California Cup at Silverstone, more news on this will follow.
If you feel you have the time and the enthusiasm to put something back into the Centre why not consider joining the committee, nomination forms can be obtained through the events page and click on April events.
Please take this opportunity to come along and support your Committee for the work they have put in during the year.
Bookings for The Three Day Tour are now flowing in, with well over 60 so far, so if you have not yet booked your place then please don't delay and contact David Reid now or see the Events Page.
The Tour will leave The Westerwood Hotel Cumbernauld at 10.00hrs on Saturday the 3rd May to sample the delights that Perthshire has to offer.

MARCH MUNCH REPORT
The Carvery Lunch held at Dunblane Hydro saw a good turn out of MGs on a sunny but cold day for our first get together of the new season. Willy & Penny Scott turned out in their newly aquired MGTF along with Jim & Loretta Henderson in their 1955 MGTF1500 on its first outing. It was also welcome to Mike & Catherine Howlett and Lorraine and Chris Hastie attending one of our events for the first time making the numbers up to 35.
This was a new venue for us and it proved a popular one, with a good selection on the carvery and a pianist playing in the background during the meal, although he could hardly be heard for the chatter. Following the meal we retired to one of the elegant lounges were we chatted away till late afternoon reminising and looking forward to this years runs hopefully with better weather than last year.
Dunblane was a good find, thanks to Jim Henderson who did the ground work for this one.
EARLY BIRD RUN
The first Run of the season which is being organised by Ian Goddard takes place on Sunday the 20th April leaving from the King Robert Hotel, Glasgow Road, Stirling, meeting at 9.30 for coffee with the first car leaving at 10.30.
The run will take us around the central area finishing at Baxter's (Kathellan) just off the A90 at Kelty. This being the first run of the season draws early entries from the die hard's desperate to get their MG's out of winter storage with 10 bookings so far, again see the Events Page for further details. April looks like being a busy month with all that is on offer to members, with both Centre run events and invitation events.

A few members wish to enter two teams at Silverstone this year to try and bring the California Cup back to Scotland after an absence of several years. They need three to a team and are looking for another two to make up the numbers, and as many members as possible who wish to go along to cheer them on.
Further information will be made available later.
