The Annual General Meeting of the MG Car Club of Toronto Inc. will be held on Tuesday February 14th, 2012 at 8pm. The location will be GrandPrix Kartways, 75 Carl Hall Road, Bay 3, Unit 9, Toronto, Ontario. M3K 2B9. Please see comments below. Following the AGM, guest speaker John Greenwood of VARAC will give a presentation on their activities.

(The normal practice has been to hold the Annual General Meeting in January of each year. Due to the uncertainty surrounding where future meetings would be held as a result of the closure of the Toronto Air & Space Museum, the Executive elected to schedule the regular January meeting at a different location, J D Auto. It was felt that the January meeting location would not be a suitable place to hold the AGM, therefore the decision has been made to postpone the AGM for one month.)
