Masselspoort 2007....the SA VOC National "Saamtrek" was a great success thanks to members participation. 59 Volvos pitched & we catered for 130 at the prize giving dinner. Registration / Photo shoots / Ladies tour / Concours / Judging / Prize giving dinner ....& best of all commeraderie was all part of the weekend & Sunday's closure came around just too quickly. The quality of the Volvos on display is improving year by year along with the standard of judging. Prepare yourselves, next year will be even better.

Compliments of the season to all. Looking back - 2006 proved to be one of the better years, celebrating 25 years of VOC/SA, 50 years of the Amazon with over 40 Amazons/120 series braving the damp weather at the Piston Ring venue in November and over 50 Volvo's pitching at the October 'saamtrek' where we catered for 120 guests at both the Friday and Saturday dinners.....everybody attending the 2006 'saamtrek'got value for their 'buck' by just taking the trouble to drive to Bloemfontein.
To make 2007 even better, we the Committee, need your input and support.
