THE NORTHERN VINTAGE TRANSPORT ASSOCIATION
NEWSLETTER FOR DECEMBER 2022
You can now find us on Face book search for
The Northern Vintage Transport Association.
Don’t forget we also have a website where you will find pictures of events we have been to and events we have held at the club nights. www.tnvta.co.uk
To all our members we would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
It is hard to understand where the time has gone. Hope you are all well on the way to getting yourself Christmas ready. If you have huge celebrations planned or small ones. Hope you have a good time.
We have decided because of lack of support we are unable to bring you all a Christmas party this year. We have thought long and hard about it and this is the decision we have had to make. Sorry. However, if you would like to join the Weather Beaters S.C. after Christmas party.

We are still having your club night even though it's quite close to Christmas. It will be nice get together for those of us who have turned out every month. You can expect a mince pie, Christmas music and a quiz so get you thinking cap on. I'm sure there will be a prize of some kind. Look forward to you joining us. We will be holding a raffle as usual. If you could wrap any prizes, you bring that would great. Thank you
18th of January 2023
This will be our A.G.M.
We would like a good turn out as we have some proposed changes to put before you all to vote on
We are proposing to publish the Newsletter every two months. We feel we will be able to keep you just as well informed of any up-and-coming events as we have been doing on a monthly basis. The cost of production and posting is spiralling in cost. It cost almost £1000 per year. With the cost of stamps cost over £600 per year. We feel that we can offer the same service publishing every two months. We can also save money with the Newsletter it you would be willing to have it sent by email

We are hoping to collect your email address at Members night and can then forward you your newsletter straight to your inbox. We understand that not all will want this, and post will always be an option.
If you have any views on these matters, please come and make you feelings shown.
Member's renewal night.
Is the 15th of February 2023.
We hope you can come and renew your membership with us.
You will receive your renewal form in with January's newsletter for you to fill in and return to us by post, or in person at club night.
If you decide you would like your newsletter by email just fill in the box on your renewal form. If you leave it blank, we will assume you are not interested in receiving your Newsletter this way.
After some discussion it has been decided to keep your membership at last year's price of £15. We feel this is value for money with your public liability insurance included in the price.
We look forward to hearing from you whatever you decide to do.

And finally
What do you get when you cross a vampire with a snowman.........
Frostbite!
How do you help someone who has lost their Christmas spirit......
Nurse them back to Elf!
