Corowa 2014 - Year of the WW1 & Year of the ford

[Jan Thompson]

It is great to see sometimes up to 8 entries each day either by email or in the post. You have up until the 28th February to get your entries in.

Remember to come along to Keith Webb's talk at the Football Club which is opposite Ball Park Caravan Park on Friday 14th March. The Footy Club will be selling food and drinks from approx. 5pm so there are no excuses for people not to have a feed before listening to the parade briefing at 7:30pm and following this will be Keith's talk. Lets support the local Footy Club. Maybe Keith would like to give us a sneak preview of what he is going to talk about.

Corowa is approaching fast and I still need names for the site office roster. Already some members have put their names into more than one slot and I don't want to spoil the event for them by asking for more of their time. What we need is more people to fill one time slot to spread the work load. So could you please consider volunteering for one of the vacant time slots.

Just remember you officially have until the 28th February to pre-register for Corowa. There are a number of people on this forum who haven't pre-registered yet.
We have a few WW1 vehicles entered and this year there have been a number of people who haven't attended in the past who have sent in entry forms.

Entry for year of the Ford and KVE memberships. Sent today in the mail along with payment....

Looking forward to the week. Will be going to the Lockhart Truck Show before hand, probably.

We have now hit the 200 mark. It is always difficult to predict the number of pre-entries.

Membership to KVE is also due now as we changed our financial year to fit in with the event so if you are interested in joining please ask for a membership form or get a copy from the website: www.corowaswim-in.org

I have had contact from the media. Today I did an interview on 2AY and also had to provide some photos to Chris Hook from the Daily Telegraph.

We have submitted documents to the Corowa Shire for the parade and all is on track at this stage.

It will be "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" minus trains. I know almost nothing about them. Better substitute military vehicles for that.

I will be talking about a life long love affair, a passion shared I believe by a good proportion of the audience, and how that has shaped my career.

I plan to show some never before seen images and footage, and also share some of the incredible stories I have been recording as part of the Temora Aviation Museum's Unsung Heroes project.
