MEET Report: Silverstone Classic 2014

Thanks to Andy Sharp for doing this write up!

Silverstone Classic 2014 lived up to its expectations as one of the highlights of the S2KUK meets calendar.  We were blessed with fantastic weather for the event, and during the course of the weekend over 38  S2000s joined us on the club stand on the infield,expertly arranged by Minvo.

Honda UK  kindly supplied us with a marquee which we could use as a base and this became an excellent meeting place between races to chill out with a PIMM'S or two (we are a civilised club after all !) and chat with other owners and the host of people who came over to admire and ask us about our cars and the club.

MegaMeet 10 - Donations and scrounging begins here. Please help.

We are making final preparations for Megameet 10 (yes the tenth!!) in delightful Mid Wales.

It is, so far, an incredible turn out with 70 cars planned to be in attendance so it promises to be a great meet. As ever we will be doing our bit to raise money for our Members Chosen Charity of the Year which this year is Macmillan Cancer Support

Last year we raised a staggering £5,414.50 which was split in equal amounts and donated to Cancer Research UK and Help for Heroes charities. We can only hope, that with your help, we can do just as well this year.

So....

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

  • Have you got something you could donate as a raffle or auction prize?
  • Could you scrounge something from a local dealer, or similar?
  • Are you a business who'd like to benefit not only the charity, but yourselves by getting free PR/Advertising?
  • Maybe you travel a lot for work and stay in hotels - could you persuade them for an overnight B&B voucher perhaps?
  • Does your work place do anything special? Would they donate something?


Then please let us know by emailing charity@s2kuk.com

Anything, no matter how big or small, will help us towards the fund raising.

Also we need some volunteers to help contact our list of traders/sponsors etc. please get in touch - many hands make light work!

Thank you in advance for any help!

Committee Vacancies

 

  We have 2 vacancies on the Club Committee of S2KUK.

Following announcements at the AGM we have 2 positions on the Club Committee, we have some interest but as not all members were at the AGM we have to open it up to everyone and follow the process of election as set out in the Club Constitution. 

We will take nominations (some were given at the AGM), if you would like to put yourself forward:

You will need to propose yourself and have someone to second you, both you and your seconder must be paid up Club members.  Once nominations are in there will be a members' vote on the candidates to decide who takes the positions.


Treasurer

After 10 years service to the club and being a founding member, Ade has decided it is time to hand over the baton to someone with more day to day involvement in the club.  We would like to thank Ade for his hard work keeping the accounts in shape.

Key responsibility is financial control, keeping accounts up to date and filing in line with legal requirements. 

Honda/Dealer/Discounts Co-ordinator

This will involve engaging with Honda (UK) on various subjects, recruitment of dealers and suppliers to the discount scheme, and keeping the discounts up to date.  


Interested?

If you'd like to put yourself forward for either of these roles, you will need to propose yourself, and you will also need someone to second you.  Once all proposals are in, appointment would be by a club members' vote.  You can do this by emailing via the Contact Form using the Contact Committee option from the drop down menu.

Both roles are voluntary and will take up a little of your own time, however it will not be onerous.


Other help

We are also keen to have more regional event organisers.  To volunteer please also email via the Contact Form using the Contact Committee option from the drop down menu.

If you have any questions, or would like to discuss, one of the committee will be happy to help, please just get in touch!

Euromeet 2014 - An Account by Tom Maher

This awesome story of his Euromeet 2014 experience has been written by Tom Maher, click below to see the full story with pictures!

It was late August when the rumours of Euromeet 2014 started to float around the S2000 community. Everyone who made it to Euromeet 2009 knew the potential it could have and those who missed it had spent the last 4 years hoping it would come again. Like any sequel it was always going to be compared to the last, especially as the location was exactly the same. But Euromeet 2014 was never going to be a sequel, some cobbled together left overs trying to replicate a bygone dream. Euromeet 2014 was designed to strengthen the incredible spirit of the European S2000 community and that’s exactly what it would do. Within 24 hours of first whispers online, I was contacted from S2000 owners from all over Europe. The same questions kept popping up: “Where, when and how do I pay?” I knew then that there was no way of stopping the power of dreams becoming a reality. Within a couple of weeks I had gotten word from official sources that the people had been heard and Euromeet 2014 would be taking bookings in the New year.
