2013 SauQld Annual Skyline Charity Cruise

Description:

It's that time of year again ladies and gentlemen, the Annual Skylines Australia QLD Charity Cruise!

This year we are helping out the Smith Family with a Teddy Bear run just before Christmas. The Smith Family conduct regular fundraising events to support children from families and will be there to show their support towards us. We are holding this near Xmas so that we can help those out in more unfortunate circumstances. The fact that they are receiving a toy will be a big plus in any child's eyes and can really make a difference. This is why we ask you to join us and demonstrate our strength as a community of Skyline owners.

We will be meeting at the Samford Bowls/ Tennis Club Car Park and cruising via a nice scenic route to Lakeside Park. This route will be released on the day and clearly marked pilot vehicles will lead you there. We will be holding several raffles and a Show 'n' Shine with all profits going to the Smith Family. The attached document outlines what can and can't be donated in line with The Smith Family's policies.

As this is a charity cruise we will be charging a fee of $20 and a brand new teddy bear/toy per car to donate. Toys other than teddy bears would be greatly appreciated. Year after year, they tend to find a shortage of toys for boys aged between 8-12 years of age.

Being a cruise, there is to be no speeding or unlawful behaviour. The club will be on public display and anyone caught breaking the rules will be asked to leave.

This is a great cause and year after year we are able to demonstrate our strength as a group and assist those less fortunate in a positive manner.

Come along for the ride and have a great day!

Location:

We will be meeting at the Samford Bowls/ Tennis Club Car Park and cruising to Lakeside Park. Details of the route will be provided on the day. We will have several cruise leaders with their cars identified and we ask that you follow these cars and don't overtake them.

Date:

Sunday, the 8th of December.

Time:

10 AM arrival at the meeting point for a 11 AM departure.

There will be prior sub-meets held in the South, West and East to allow people to travel in a group together. If you would like to assist in organising this, please contact myself or an Exec Member.

Cost:

$20 and a teddy bear or toy per car plus any fuel/food you use/eat.

Requirements:

This is one of the only events we run with vehicle requirements but as this is a Skyline charity cruise we do have several.

Your car must meet 2 of the following 3 requirements:

1. Be manufactured by Nissan/Infiniti/Datsun/Prince

2. Be sold as a Skyline

3. Be powered by an RB or VQ engine

Eg: A Nissan Silvia powered by an RB25 would be eligible as it meets two criteria

A Toyota Supra powered by a VQ35 would not be as it meets one criteria only

The only exemption to these requirements are the R35 GT-R, and the F31 Leopard.

There are Sprints on at Lakeside as well so it will be a great day out. Feel free to invite others who own cars that suit the criteria. Let everyone know that it's on. Get out there and spread the word!

Let's all join together and make this huge!

Look forward to seeing you there.

Thank you,

Tony

President

On behalf of the Entire Executive Team

Alternative Meeting Points:

These are alternative meeting points from where you can meet with a few others and cruise on in to the main meeting spot at Samford. For those that aren't sure of how to get there or simply want to cruise with a few other cars, this would make your life a lot easier. Each spot will have two authorised marshals managing the group and ensuring that people don't get lost.

This list will be updated as the organisers provide me with more info incl time and location.
