Spettacolo 2010 - Volunteer Opportunities

[John Hanslow]

Just to let you all know planning is in the final stage for this years event.  A lot of good work has been done by the organisers for the 3 main activities:
- 100 Year Historic Walk
- Wash'n Shine and Register Display
- Concorso - may be 4 cars this year

But we need people to help out at the start with ground control (parking) and also to judge a few cars in the Wash'n Shine (not your own car!).

So if you we do ask that you get there early to park your car in the correct spot and then give us a hand.  We need help to park all cars from the peak time of 8.30am to 10 am.  SO give us a half hour or so for the benefit the club.

No time to enter in a Wash'n Shine - no problem, judge someone else's car and get involved.

Finally there will be a complimentary Organisers and Volunteer luncheon after the awards at about 2pm so you also can catch up with fellow Alfisti and club members over a bite to eat.  (Drinks not included).

Note we have people coming from regional chapters and interstate to help out so let's put on a good show to make it light work for all.

hey there,
due to the awesome weather forecasting for sunday [Rain all day, easing to showers in the afternoon]... is this still going to be on? iv got a night booked on saturday, but dont wanna head down if im just gonna find out its been canceled.

[Brad M]

Won't be cancelled, as there is no scope to move the event.

You may need a rain jacket and umbrella, but you would of if the forecast was for sunshine ... it is Melbourne.

[John Hanslow]

With a bit of science here too.

John & team ,

Thanks for a fantastic day. I don't know how you re organized the weather, but you did.

Maybe you better let the Melbourne BOM know about that web site next time they get the urge to forcast rain of biblical proportions, i know I'll be checking it.


Cheers

Congratulations John, for staging the most successful Spettacolo ever.
What a wonderful showcase of the most superb assembly of Alfa Romeo vehicles spanning almost 100 years. With visitors from 3 States we surely had a magnificent aray of vehicles in Melbourne unlikely to be topped anywhere in Australia. It has been a joy to be part of AROCA vic's 100 year cellebrations throughout this year. 3 Chees!

yes, very well organised - great turn out.... biggest i've seen!


good show!

[david sammartino]

+1, John i dunno how you managed it all, and your day job. Only thing i can thing of is that you took a few days off.........was a great day, if a little long for those of us who dont normally get up so early on a Sunday.

[Miss Alfa Sprint]

Wow what a day!!!   

Special thankyou to John, Barry, and of course Phil for organising the 100 year walk!

I had a ball today!! was worth waiting a year for now i have to wait again for the next one...

Was great to take photos of most of the cars, couldn't get everyone's but i did my best to get round, my legs are killing me right now but it was worth it...

Really happy the weather held out for us too! 

[Frank Musco]

Another typical AROCA event. Loved it!

The organisation is second to no one, from the moment I drove in and was greeted by Vin Sharp, to seeing Colin Thomas directing me to the appropriate area, and welcomed by Barry Edmunds on the load speaker, very embarrassing. The 100 year walk was another great idea as well as having the same series cars organised into the same areas, as usual.

A great club/family of committed volunteers, well done and THANKS!. 

Lastly, Loved the Red Alfasud Wagon, never seen one before, love to put some numbers on it and see what it can do, obviously!

I had a fantastic time too (not as a volunteer though!). Loved all the cars, and meeting up with people, including Phil for directing my 155 to the correct spot in the Walk. My GT stayed in the garage because it was still wet/raining down past Geelong where I travel up from, but hopefully next year is completely dry and sunny!

Thank you to all the organisors for another wonderful event.

Thank you all for your comments.

Yes had a few days off to plan for the day.  But more importantly had a good team who helped out, namely Phil Nash with 100 Year walk, Gary Pearce re the all important Concorso matters and David Wright regarding the Historic Display.

Also ground & gate staff Colin, Tim, Anthony, Erica, Peter just to name a few.

And all the wash'n Shine judges.  Very professional.

Thank to you all.  Most appreciated.
