The Rotary Club of Spey Valley were delighted to welcome 34
entrants to their first Classic, Sports and EV Car Tour.
The cars
were flagged off by club President Pam Cairns from Macdonald Aviemore
Resort inlovely sunshine. The good weather continued all the way to
Strathdon showing the heather clad mountains at their best.
Lunch was provided by Glenfiddich at their Dufftown Distillery, but by the time cars arrived the clouds had descended and all soft topdrivers had pulled up their roofs.
The return drive was north towards Forres then south past Lochindorband Carrbridge. The day finished off with an Awards dinner in the eregrine Suite at Macdonald Aviemore.
This was a charity event where everyone gave so generously. Over £9,000 was raised which will be shared equally between Macmillan Cancer Care, Aquabox and the Rotary Club of Spey Valley Charitable Trust.
Grateful thanks go to our sponsors: Arnold Clark Inverness BMW, Macdonald Aviemore Resort, Glenfiddich Distillery, Landmark Press and all the advertisers in the Route Book.
Special thanks go to the Rotary Club event organisers Alan Cairns and Alan Rankin for the months of hard work organising the event, and all the club volunteers.
The success of the event, together with the positive feedback from the drivers who took part, has inspired the club to plan another Charity Car Tour in May 2025.
