Magazine November 2013 11 All Holden Day Toowoomba From Holden to HSV... Sunday 6th October 2013 We had our biggest display ever at the All Holden Day 2013! 45 vehicles on display certainly gave us a very commanding presence on the field. We also had quite a few people join us and stay overnight in Toowoomba on the Saturday night and this certainly gave us an advantage as we were able to get our cars clean before the show on Sunday. On Saturday night 30 members went out for a 3 course dinner at Chrysdals Restaurant (on site). A great night was had by all even though some of us may have had a little too much to drink??? At 5:45am on Sunday morning, Peter Woods led the convoy from Brisbane, while the rest of us in Toowoomba were fast asleep! We met in a side street in Toowoomba at 7:00am so that we could enter the showgrounds in model order.
