About

The Alfa Romeo Owners' Club of Australia (AROCA) is a vibrant club, supporting Alfa Romeo owners & enthusiasts. AROCA (Victoria Division) was formed in Melbourne in August 1969.

Structure

The affairs of AROCA Victoria are managed by a committee who meet each month and work to ensure that the club meets the needs and interests of its membership. The Club holds its Annual General Meeting in March each year at which members vote for each of the committee positions and receive reports from each committee member.

As an incorporated body AROCA Victoria operates under Articles of Association which requires a report to be submitted to Victoria's Department of Consumer Affairs each year.

The Club also has a National Coordinator who maintains the communication links between each state division and Stellantis, the parent company of Alfa Romeo.

How to become a member of AROCA Victoria and other membership matters are detailed on the Membership tab on the web site's main menu.

Chapters

The Club supports several active groups of Alfisti in regional areas within Victoria. These include:

• Goldfields Chapter, based in Ballarat, conducts events for members in Central & Western Victoria.
• Gippsland Chapter, based in Phillip Island, conducts events throughout Gippsland. 

Given the proximity to Melbourne of both of these Chapters, Melbourne based members often join these events.

Registers

The Club has a number of Model Registers with Register Captains who provide an avenue for owners to source technical and other information about their particular model of Alfa Romeo. Register Captains also organise and run events for their Register as well as contributing articles to the club magazine and newsletter.

History

The Alfa Romeo Owners' Club of Australia (AROCA) was formed in August 1969, when a group of like-minded Alfa Romeo owners met in Melbourne to form a club so that they could get together to share and enjoy their common interest.

The first meeting was conducted at the Light Car Club of Australia's clubrooms in Melbourne. The Club enjoys a very rich history with a membership that continues to grow in Victoria and nationally.

Separate Divisions have been established in each of the states except Tasmania and include New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia with regional Chapters in some Divisions as well. e.g. the Goldfields Chapter, based in Ballarat; and the Canberra Chapter, which is affiliated with the NSW Division.

AROCA also maintains a National Office, based in Victoria under David Wright, who is the National Coordinator.
