With lockdown restrictions continuing to be lifted, I am pleased to let you know that this year’s Summer Gathering will be taking place on Sunday, 4th July. An entry form will be available to download very soon but in the meantime please do put the date in your diary if you have not already done so! Things might need to change a little due to Covid but as always it will be a day to meet up with old friends and to make new ones. The event is open to all MGCC Triple-M members and their friends, whether their cars are on the road or not. We are so looking forward to welcoming you and your cars back to Greenacres.

Well done, Elizabeth and Andrew for picking up the baton and continuing to run with this. One of the Triple-M highlights for sure. We'd love to attend.

Great - well done to Elizabeth and family to continue with the superb event initiated by your much missed Dad Peter.
I have only missed one meeting and that was when the L2 suffered an electrical problem - luckily just 1 mile from home!
Entry form on its way.

Good evening.
Following the Government’s announcement last night that there will be a delay in the easing of the final Covid-19 restrictions (and in particular for us the restriction on the number of people able to gather outside), it is with regret that we will have to postpone the Summer Gathering planned for Sunday, 4th July. We have liaised with the MG Car Club and they are in agreement. We very much want the event to go ahead this year so are currently looking at dates in August when hopefully all restrictions will be lifted. As soon as the date is known I will let you know. Thank you to everyone that has already entered (we were already at 100), I will write to you separately once the new date is confirmed with details regarding changing your entry or cancelling should you be unable to make the new date.
Looking forward to seeing you all at Greenacres in August.
Elizabeth

Hi Elisabeth,
many thanks for letting us know. it is fully understandable and expected after the delayed easing announced this week. PreWar Prescott announced a similar postponement yesterday evening as well for the same reason.
Hopefully August works out, we keep fingers crossed!
Best Wishes to you all
Colin and Steffi

UPDATE
Further to my posting regarding the postponement of the Summer Gathering, I can now let you know that we have come up with two alternative dates - these are Sunday 22nd August and Sunday 29th August (Bank Holiday weekend). As you can imagine, it is very difficult to find a date that either doesn’t clash with another event or us hopefully trying to get a few days away in the summer! I have written directly to everyone that had already entered so this note is to advise those of you that couldn’t make the original date of 4th July and can now perhaps make one of the new dates. If this applies to you, it would really help with deciding which date to go for if you could let me know whether you would be able to attend on either of the suggested dates. Please reply to this posting or email me directly at e.taylor@oakend.net and I will then keep you on my database and send you a new entry form when the date is confirmed.
Finally, thank you for all the lovely messages of support we have received regarding the Summer Gathering, we look forward to seeing you all in August.
Elizabeth

NEW DATE CONFIRMED
Hello everyone.
Many thanks to all the entrants and everyone else that replied with regards to our two alternative dates for the Summer Gathering. I am pleased to confirm that the new date is Sunday, 29th August. As you can imagine, choosing a date is not easy and apologies to those of you that will not be able to attend on the 29th. I will now write to everyone that has already entered asking to either confirm that you can make the 29th August or that you need to cancel your entry. For those of you that have not yet entered, an updated entry form will be available shortly via the document downloads/entry forms area of the website (see Dick Morbey’s posting on 13th May for the link).
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch. We look forward to seeing you all at Greenacres on the 29th August.
Elizabeth
