This is the Canberra Chapter’s run to the All-Chapter President’s Picnic at Ebenezer.

This is a good day and a beautiful spot on the Hawksbury River. The Club will meet the cost of morning tea and lunch for members and there are a number of events organised that you may join in on (such as a show and shine).

Norm Barker has organised a scenic run the day before and accommodation at Richmond.

There’s heaps more info about the picnic and the events organised for the day at on the Club’s website: President’s Picnic.

To join the run:

  1. book your attendance though the MX-5 website (President’s Picnic). As an all-chapter event, you must register to ensure you are booked in for lunch and morning tea.
  2. book your accommodation at the Motel Colonial Motel Richmond and say you are with the MX-5 Club Canberra ($145 queen room).
  3. let Norm know you're coming (normanroz17@aussiebb.com.au or phone 0409 604 041). Norm needs to know you've booked your place and accommodation and your details (names, club membership numbers, email, and phone number).

Guests (non-members) are welcome, but will be charged $30 each if having lunch or $10 otherwise (pay at the registration desk upon arrival and receive a wrist band to enjoy coffee & cake).
