Hursley Motor Club’s summer Motor Show is part of IBM’s Hursley 50 years open day. The show is for classic and hand built cars, bikes and other interesting vehicles.
The Open Day is on the 5th July and will run from 12 noon for Motor Show Entrants. We would like to get cars in place before 1:30 ready for the opening to the all visitors at 2.00pm. This will give owners the chance for a picnic, or lunch at the clubhouse (about £5) and quiet natter. It is located in Hursley Park, near Winchester.
Show attendees will enjoy the variety of cars at the show and will have the opportunity to vote for “the vehicle they would most like to take home.”
For entertainment top of the bill is Max Somerset, star of the CBBC television show The Sorcerer's Apprentice.
The main stage will be on the south lawn with Hursley House as its backdrop and it is from there that Sounds of Steel, reputedly the best youth steel band in the UK, will kick things off at 2.00pm with a taste of the Caribbean. They will be followed by local blues rock band, The Also Brothers and then the Tudor Roses Ladies Barbershop Harmony Chorus who will sing a capella four part harmony.
Then from 7.45pm, the City of Southampton Orchestra will play a concert of Russian music, culminating with the 1812 Overture and a spectacular fireworks finale just before 10.00pm.
The programme will also include music and dance in the Clubhouse where Hursley Swing Band and Debbie Harry tribute band Monkey Puzzle will get you up and dancing. And, if that is not enough, the Hursley International Folk Dancers troupe will demonstrate Eastern European dance.
For those who want to participate, you can also develop key musical skills in a Drum and Didgeridoo session on the main sports field or learn the oldest, most exciting and stylish of swing dance at the Jive dance workshop in the Clubhouse.
This is a rare chance to view historic Hursley house. More attractions are to be announced later. It may be 50 years before there is another chance to share in celebrations like these.
Entrance to everything is FREE, but we would like to know details in advance if you are coming to show your car. As I am the Chairman of the Hursley Motor Club it is only natural that all Marlins are welcome. If you would like to attend please email me millie_marlin (at) hotmail.co.uk (stop sniggering). Alternatively call me, Paul Carey, on 07703 598158.
