COVID RESTRICTIONS
Club Monthly Runs and Mid-Week Meanders will reconvene once the COVID restrictions are lifted. In the meantime, members wishing to use their CRS registered cars are still able to do so for regular events, obviously abiding by the latest ACT Public Health Regulations and the CACTMC guidelines for use of CRS registered cars.
Our thoughts are with our many MG friends in the States and Territories that are doing it really tough. Hang in there, you have our very best wishes and we hope to see you at our planned major MG event in 2023 – if not before.
Please remember that if you are in Canberra, our Club will always welcome and assist you if we can.
MG is the marque of friendship. Contact our Club on mgcccanberra@gmail.com
