GEARY SPORTS CA<br />

DENIS COTTON CA<br />

ORMISTON HOUSE, 16 OCTOBER, <strong>2016</strong><br />

Report by Richard Mattea; photos by Elaine Hamilton and Mark Wellard<br />

What a fantastic day and what a venue! The<br />

annual MGCCQ Display Day & The Geary<br />

Sports Cars Concours moved to a new date<br />

and new venue in <strong>2016</strong> and both proved to<br />

be inspired decisions. Over 60 cars attended<br />

the event this year which filled the venue<br />

to overflowing in the grassed area of the<br />

historic Ormiston House in Ormiston, which<br />

overlooks the beautiful Moreton Bay.<br />

Once in place, members were able to partake<br />

in a delightful Devonshire Tea supplied<br />

by the Ormiston house volunteers and later<br />

for lunch we dined on a delightful sausage<br />

sizzle provided by the local Rotary Club.<br />

Whilst members were enjoying their morning<br />

a small group of judges set to work to determine<br />

the best Daily Driver, Non Marque,<br />

Race Car and most importantly the Geary<br />

Sports Cars class winners for the Concours<br />

the results of which are shown below. Once<br />

the class winners were determined further<br />

judging took place to determine the overall<br />

period winners. The overall winner will be<br />

announced at the club’s annual Trophy Night<br />

to be held on the 28th of January 2017. I<br />

hope to see you all there.<br />

Congratulations to Malcolm Spiden, Don<br />

Webster and their group of helpers in putting<br />

together and pulling off such a great day.<br />
