Events Diary
our events for the months ahead
Our programme of events each year is centred around monthly runs so that members are encouraged to use their 'Seven' in order to preserve it. Club holidays are often supplemented with a spring and autumn weekend breaks. Other events are arranged as the need, or interest, arises; one example is a 'Teach-in' if sufficient members are interested in learning about a specific topic.
CA7C offers something for every member, whether they are a lanesman who likes to
get wild in the countryside, a static rally fan who enjoys displaying
their 'Seven', or a tinkerer who can’t live without the
smell of hot oil and the feel of spanners - it is all available for the
Seven enthusiast.
Members also support local summer shows and the Annual Rally of several
up-country Austin Seven Clubs, but details of other Club's events are
not shown in this listing.
Any Austin Seven enthusiast visiting Cornwall is welcome to meet up with us during the day for a chat, or join one of our Club Runs with an Austin Seven as a guest. Please contact Andrew Jarmin for details nearer the date of the event.

'Club Event' Fri 8 May |
“Thank you to everyone who joined in Drive Day 2020, 26 cars came out to take part. This Friday May 8th, 2020 marks the 75th anniversary of VE Day and many of us would have attended local events celebrating and remembering this milestone. We are inviting you to roll the car out of the garage once again, add a bit of bunting, flags and fancy dress in time for 11am and the national 2 minute silence, before serving up the coffee and cake ready for a virtual chat ringing round friends and club members. Take a photo and share with us to add to our anniversary archive. Hopefully see you there! |
