Illawarra Chapter
The Illawarra Chapter had it's first gathering on 5th May 2012 at Cliffhanger Cafe, Bulli Tops after a brief run from Nan Tien Temple, and was formally ratified as a Chapter of the Mazda MX-5 Club of NSW on 13th June 2012. The Illawarra Chapter aims to deliver events for members from the Illawarra, Shoalhaven and Southern Highlands regions.
