Sauvic Official Awards Night And Dinner 1st Oct 05

[Bass Junky]

Hey ppls.

This is an urgent request for number for our first ever official SAUVIC annual dinner. This event is open to members and their guests.

Currently we have a venue in mind, and it’s a great one.

We need to now know whether this is a viable option for us, as we need a minimum of 100 people to make it a go-er.

The price is $65 per head and includes a 3 course meal with all Alcohol supplied.

Remember, Gentleman Jim Richards will be in attendance and will be giving a bit of a speech to us about his time in the Gibson Motorsport Team when he was driving the mighty R32 GTR and trouncing the lazy V8s.

Everyone is welcome to bring their partners or friends along.

The committee really want to put this event on to celebrate the year that was and to award the trophies that you are voting for in a great location when we are all boozed up!

We have been working hard to put on as many events as we can and that we can afford, but now’s the time that you need to put your hand up and commit to the night so we can confirm attendance and whether it will be able to go ahead.

The dinner will be the kick off to a big night on the town, and if you’ve ever parties with SAU, you’ll know we have a ball!

October 1st, Melbourne City.

So please, either say yes or no in the poll so we know what to plan for.

Thanks

THE COMMITTEE

Guys,

Just to add to this - basically in order for this event to go ahead we need number of over 100 people. We are at a situation now where so far this year events we have run (such as the Tsnami Day and DECA) have not been supported as well as hoped and consequently the club coffers have taken a fair denting.

The club can not financially support another event where outlays to host the event are greater than the returns, given that much of our capital is tied up with things such as t-shirts, lanyards and stickers.

This is an event I'd truely love to see happen as I believe it will be a great night but we can only go forward with it if we have the confidence that we have the numbers required to run it without occuring a loss.

Thanks again.

Andrew.

I'm quite annoyed (was *really* looking forward to it gdamnit) but 46n2's aunt decided to get freakin married on the same night.. doesn't she know the SAU dinner is on!! So I guess we're out & revoke previous statement that we will attend :<

Maybe we will be able to skip out at some point later in the evening and track down where you all are... but I think thats the best we can do :~(

Hopefully they'll split up & call it off?! hehe.. one can only hope

Easy, just tell them to have the reception there! That'll help the numbers problem!

Everyone kicks a goal

[Scotsman]

JIM RICHARDS!!! - Come on! What kind of Skyline fan wouldn't go!

I dont know about you guys, but I haven't been to many functions where you can hear the words from the great man himself about the domination days at Gibson that lead to the mighty R32 conquering bathurst twice.

Please be aware that the committe have beaten the price down for you guys and for the quality of the venue + food + drinks + guest speaker, it is a good value night.

[SS8_Gohan]

wish i could get more involved with these events, just feel a little out of it when the 'line is in my garage with no number plates

i will attend, will check with better half, but should be at least me. I'll vote once i know.

100 ppl?? That seems like a lot... but i suppose it's not just a member thingy... how many members do we have?

Is it a formal event? ie. suit/tie etc??

[Bass Junky]

"Cocktail" dress.

So nice, no jeans, shirt, maybe tie. You get the drift.

[R31Nismoid]

It'll be a Cocktail Dress code.

SAU Vic has well over 120 Members. But we need a min of 100 to put thier hand up and say...

Its open to two other clubs, and also non SAU-Vic members that have attended various events throughout the year, and have invited us along to thier events.

But still 100 people seems to be hard to attain.

I put it too all you members to prove me wrong and say

"Yep. Im coming to support the Club and have a great night out"

If we get 140 people booked and confirmed. I'll put my reputation on the line and wear a white suit to the event

[Bass Junky]

NO

120 and you'll wear a white suit.

[West]

I've always support our club since our first ever dyno day with Aka Sam, i'm in and i don't even know if i can make it or not, i still pay if i can't make it .

[ABuSD]

Id love to come if i can hock a ride, havent been to a meet yet

No licence and a new turbo in your car sucks b@lls.

So wheres the venue?

Also what times it start?

even a rough idea would do...

Cheers

[R31Nismoid]

Timing approx 6.30pm

right next to the Exhibition Centre on the Wharf

Its a wicked venue. I checked it out personally today.

130 i wear the white suit. Nothing less.

[Bass Junky]

Come on ppls.

Can't do this at all without 100 people

[inark]

that is a fairly high number.... cant it be done somewhere smaller that doesnt require as many? or is this pretty much it? I'll come just to make up some numbers but perhaps you may have to look into alternatives if the numbers cant be made?

[Mavric]

Come on guys it's the end of year club celebrations... $65 dollars is a very reasonable amount of money for a good night out which includes a 3 course meal and all Alcohol supplied.... Think people should stop saying it's expensive or requires a big number of people and appreciate the work it has taken the guys to organise such an event and all come and make the night the best it can be...

[Snowman]

Ni - we have been looking into all possibilities for 3 months now. Unfortunately the only alternative is to not have anything like this style of event and just stick to basic BBQ's and cruises.

[inark]

lol i know id rather come to something like this than a bloody BBQ

its no where near expensive considering i drank $100 worth of booze from the bottle shop last weekend haha

hopefully more people jump up and put their hands up for it.

[Roy]

YEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sadly i only come as a gang of one...will ol' Jimb to sign my freshly shaven peck, i promise never to be wash again.

[Kaz200]

lol you drinking already troy?

[Kaz200]

Id love to come if i can hock a ride, havent been to a meet yet

Slack as, Kelly! Just stick your leg out on the freeway and hitch a ride (just watch out for passing trucks)..
