Visitors from other clubs passing through Lismore & Casino are always welcome at our club outings and meetings. Meetings of the club are the SECOND WEDNESDAY of each month
at the LISMORE WORKERS CLUB , Keen Street, Lismore at 7.30pm.
OPINIONS EXPRESSED IN THIS MAGAZINE ARE NOT NECESSARILY THOSE OF THE CLUB.
GUIDELINES FOR CONDITIONAL REGISTRATION (CLUB PLATES)
All NRVVCC members should familiarize themselves with the NSW RMS rules and club rules surrounding how to use your vehicles on Conditional registration, together with the requirement to carry certain documents in
the vehicle whenever it is being used. If you are on the log book trial, the RMS issued log book must be completed by the member before you use
the vehicle for anything other than NRVVCC club outings. Vehicles not on log book, the member should phone/email the secretary when a movement is needed for anything other than club outings.
Any member with vehicles(s) conditionally registered through the NRVVCC and who do not attend a minimum of three club events per calendar year (not including registration day & meetings) may be asked by the committee to show cause as to why the club should sanction the renewal of their registration in the
following year. The Club cannot afford the risk of the system being abused and the subsequent loss of the benefits of
these worthwhile concessions for other Club members.

Blanch’s Collection
Ballina - 1st
May, 2019
The day started wet and continued that way all
day, but still 16 members gathered at Ballina
Botanical Gardens where the weather broke and we
were able to have our coffee hit or BYO morning
tea.
We left the Gardens and made our way to Blanch’s
Bus Depot where we were met by Barry who
showed us to his warehouse, the home of his
International truck & Falcon utes. Barry explained
the history of the vehicles and answered any questions.
From the Warehouse we went to another shed at the
depot which housed a fully restored bus purchased new
by Blanch’s Bus Co. for the Brisbane Expo in 1988.
A display of Wheelwright equipment, steam engines,
blacksmith gear, butter making machine separators, etc.
the list goes on.
An appreciation certificate was presented to Barry for
his hospitality. An enjoyable outing was capped off with an
impromptu lunch at

McKay Easter Rally
Greg and I are just back from the McKay Easter Rally. We took the opportunity to
combine a trip to visit Tom & Emily with McKay Easter Rally; We flew up and joined Tom
in the Holden Torana. Sarina Beach is beautiful and we met friends old and new. It was
lovely to see our son and Daughter in Law and enjoy a really good rally with them. We’re
inspiring to travel more.
