The Seventy-First Annual General Meeting of the Renault Owners’ Club, and the 19th of Renowners Club Limited will take place at the British Motor Museum, Banbury Road, Gaydon, Warwickshire CV35 0BJ on Sunday, May 14th beginning with tea/coffee at 10.00am, meeting to start at 10.30 prompt.
The choice of venue allows members to enjoy a wider social event including the opportunity to visit the museum after the meeting has closed. Holding an AGM inevitably places costs on the Club, and to help offset some of the cost, the Committee are asking members attending to make a voluntary contribution of £7.50 which will include entry to the museum. (The regular admission price is £14.50).
Of course, any member wishing to attend the AGM without visiting the museum is free to do so without any charge.
Payment must be made in advance using the following link: https://renowners-club-limited.sumupstore.com/product/roc-2023-agm-attendance-tea-coffee-and-museum-entry
In order that we can arrange a suitably sized meeting room, members only wishing to attend the AGM (i.e. not wishing to visit the museum) are kindly requested to email secretary@renaultownersclub.com to confirm their intended attendance.
All members must be in possession of a current membership card in order to attend the meeting.
The Museum’s Junction 12 Cafe will be available for members wishing to take lunch at own expense.
