The Early V8 Ford Car Club visited Whitton on the last official day of their car rally to Leeton shire.

Having been to Whitton Malt House on a different day, the cars were back to visit the museum.

Due to the wet conditions, they lined both sides of Naradhun Street, which was very timely as the students were all out in the Stephanie Alexander Garden.

The students got to see the interesting collection of vehicles and talk with the car owners.

The rally was then wrapped up with a lunch stop at the Gogeldrie Weir park, which had been an on/off again event at the mercy of wet conditions. The car rally participants were happy with the activities they participated in and the hospitality they encountered.
