Due to the current spate of covid infections and lockdowns, and the difficulty of doing any planning, we are postponing this event until TBA 2022.
"If they can hold the 2020 Olympics in 2021, then we can celebrate a tenth anniversary in the 11th year!"
All ticket holders are being refunded in full.
______________________
VCM Committee would like to invite all members to celebrate the modern Club's 10th Anniversary at a very special event. Silver (tin) being the theme! It was 10 years ago that the Vespa Club of Melbourne was revitalized, rebadged, and relaunched by a new group of riders. The rest is history, and we have a lot to celebrate.
Time: 11.30am – 3.30pm
Venue: Studley Grounds restaurant located at 121 Studley Park Road, Kew which overlooks the skyline of the city. Location Map
Cost: Members only $27.50 (That's a big subsidy by the club because we want you there!)
Non-members $60
It's one ticket per member. Members, if you want to bring your partner (who is a non-member) you'll need to purchase a separate ticket for that person under the 'Non-Member - Guest' ticket line.
A tenth anniversary? Yes, the original club formed in 1957. And the current club was officially reformed and registered in 2007. After a few quiet years the club was reinvigorated with a new wave of riders, and the new logo and online launch signaled a new era of friendship and riding. The success of the club inevitably inspired others and has led to the formation of a new Vespa Club of Australia.
We invite you to wear your best “Silver” adornment, and if you are riding please dress up your vespa to win a bottle of MOET Champagne!
There will be a generous 3 course meal, guest speakers, FOREVER ELVIS – Damian Mullin will be in the building to entertain you, and you must be at this event if you want to be in the Major Door prize “A VESPA” courtesy of Vespa Australia which will be drawn on the day. And a lot lot more as we get closer to the date.
There is a cap on attendance, so register and get your ticket as soon as possible.
PRESENTING THE MAJOR DOOR PRIZE - VESPA AUSTRALIA
Vespa Australia, in recognition of Vespa Club of Melbourne’s contribution to the brand VESPA over the past 10 years and more, are rewarding members attending this event with the chance to win a brand new 2021 Primavera “Pic Nic” Vespa that comes with all the accessories.
Tickets to win this Prize are exclusive to members ONLY at this celebration lunch.
We are very grateful for the extremely generous prize, but more importantly it is true that you as a member of Vespa Club of Melbourne have contributed to the exposure of the brand purely by riding a vespa and being a part of this amazing Club. So please go to the Sticky tickets link and book your tickets
See you there!

From the archives
Secretary's report fom 03 August 2011.
"At the end of July the Club has grown to 31 financial members. This includes two who have joined at the corporate rate. All new members are being properly receipted, and posted a members kit. The Treasurer receives a report on each new member. I would like to work further on the kit to include something else of substance. The initial purchase of patches for new members was a run of 50 - so there are 19 left. These may last us to the end of the financial year, otherwise an extra run will need to ordered. The President and Vice President will soon be calling a Management meeting, and draft agenda will be circulated to everyone shortly for your input. Two tasks I have done as Secretary and which I will forward to the Committee agenda include:
1. Corresponce and enquiry to VicRoads regarding the Club being able to participate in 'classic' bike registration.
2. Results of investigation into Public Liability insurance.
Thanks everyone for your commitment and keep on building the club!"
Please join us to celebrate.
Coming soon...
