2011 Guide Dog Fun Run - Sunday 18 Sept 2011

Despite the weather looking inclement, 70 plus Hot Rodders got their cars out of the garage and came along to support the Capital Rodders annual Guide Dog fundraising run.

The run started at Ngauranga Gorge in Wellington, headed off through Johnsonville, then out to Papakowhai and Porirua, with questions to be answered along the way as well as challenges to be completed. The run finally finishing up at the club rooms in Titahi Bay for a BBQ and prize giving.

The prize for the best Pre-49 went to Kerry Silk with his 1933 Ford Sedan, with Doug and Marie Breden taking out the best Post-49 with their 1965 Impala Sports Sedan.

We managed to raise $1500 for the Royal NZ Foundation of the Blind. Another great effort thanks to every one that attended. Everyone enjoyed themselves and we look forward to seeing you all back next year.

A huge thanks go out to our sponsors, who with their support helped to make this another great event – MB Minitrucks, Tip Top, Mitubishi, Bluebridge, Repco, Stewarts Electrical, Wellington Scrap Metals, Burgerfuel, Holcim, Super Liquor, Diecast Collectibles and Total Bodyshop Supplies.

2011 Capital Rodders Swap Meet - A huge success!

The first Capital Rodders Swap Meet and Vehicle Display to be held at Trentham Race Course was on Sunday 22 May 2011.

Gates opened at 7am to a waiting crowd. What a great day with lots to see and do for all, and awesome weather too with a fine Wellington winter day.

A good crowd of sellers and buyers turned out for the inaugural event, and there was a huge variety of vehicles on display. Something for everyone.

Thanks to those that shared their photo's from the day.

Well done to the guys on the organising committee and all of the club members that worked hard in the background to make it a successful event.
