CLASSIC vehicles assembled at the Lady Nelson Visitor and Discovery Centre on Saturday as part of the Mount Gambier Veteran and Vintage Car Club’s 53rd Australia Day weekend tour.
Friday’s program began with a morning tea at the group’s clubrooms before departing for the Australia Day Celebrations at the Tarpeena Oval and then a visit to Nangwarry’s forestry museum.
Tour participants were welcomed on Saturday by Mount Gambier Mayor Andrew Lee and Mount Gambier and District Community Bank Branch of Bendigo Bank director Mark Fulford.
Vehicles left at 10am for Nelson, before then travelling through Port MacDonnell to Kongorong.
“Although entries were down this year, the club received many compliments from participants, who were delighted with the event,” Mount Gambier Veteran and Vintage Car Club publicity officer Colin Thompson said.
