LONDY'S DINER

JRI hosted the inaugural Londy's Diner in March 2004. This event celebrates Ipswich's history. Londy's Cafe was first established in Ipswich the 1920's on the site now occupied by the Ipswich Cinemas. The Ipswich Show Grounds Function Hall became "Londy's Diner" complete with heaps of memorabilia including original photos of Londy's Café, and food to suit the era (hamburgers, waffles and ice-cream, and spiders). Almost 100 classic cars cruised in to the Show Grounds, from various locations around Brisbane.

JRI members and hundreds of visitors from the community, ate, danced the night away and had a merry time.

In 2007 we were entertained by the Fabulous Romio & Juliette duo who kept the dance floor full all night. The numbers of classic cars and guests were well up on 2006 and why not, a great nostalgic night good food top cars, great music and tremendous atmosphere. The theme for 2007 was Dads shed, a nostalgic look at the back yard shed of the 50's

This event will continue to be an annual event for JRI.

CAR ENTRY FORM

JRI has hosted this very successful event for the past 14 years. The 2007 event involved over 150 cars from local Ipswich, Brisbane Toowoomba, Granite Belt and both Coast's Car Clubs. Many of these cars were awarded trophies in a range of categories, donated by generous business in and around Ipswich. The event included a 'collectibles market'. A Rock and Roll Band entertained 'Rock'n' Rollers' as well as the thousands of people who visited the show . This is a nostalgic event not to be missed.

Thanks must go to all the Sponsors, the Ipswich Show grounds for the use of their facilities, and JRI members who helped with the organisation of the day. A very special thank-you must go to the car owners, who travelled from as far a field as Roma, the Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Brisbane and a very strong Ipswich contingent, without their involvement, the day would not be possible.

JRI DINNER DANCE (members only)

Each year, JRI members have the pleasure of attending the annual JRI Dinner Dance. This dance promises something different each year - with a guarantee of a great time every year. The theme has been 'formal gear' - great food - a variety of dancing (including rock and roll and a bit of old time dancing). That's not to say that future theme won't change in order to keep it a fun and dynamic event. It also provides the club with an opportunity to honour and thank the very hard working committee and dance teachers for their efforts during the year.
