Marong Federation Picnic

Featured Replies

Hi folks

 

If any one is looking for something to do on Sunday that involves a bit of a drive you might be interested in this... I am attending with some VW guys.

 

Basically it sounds like a mini Hanging Rock, held in Marong at the sports ground, which is just outside of Bendigo.. the Federation of Vintage, Veteran and Classic Vehicles Clubs holds a number of picnics through the year, where all their clubs can drive to and show off their pride and joy.

 

The VW guys are heading off at 7.30am from the Calder outbound BP.. meeting up with our Bendigo counterparts, and then cruising into the picnic.

 

Apparently they get 500 cars up there so might be worth a Sunday drive if you are feeling that way inclined.

Yep, the marong show is pretty cruisy and tends to get a great mix of cars. And it's an easy drive along the Calder.

 

Won't be makin this one personally, will be getting my new shed ready for concrete and storm water! Get some pics Adam.

Turns out the Federation does 4 picnics a year.. .one on Australia Day, one in Pakenham, this one in Marong and another one else where that I forget. Nice mix of cars... including a few Toyotas. Well Crowns actually.. all Crowns...I reckon we should put one of these on the social calendar next year.. maybe this one since its 6 months or so after Hanging Rock. It was a good Sunday drive home too, as I avoided the freeway, and had a great pie at Malmsbury!

 

Here are some Toyota and Japanesey pics....
