The
Austin-Healey Club of Manitoba is dedicated to the preservation and use of
Healey and Austin-Healey automobiles. We
are a non-profit organization established in 1990 and currently made up of
approximately 30 members and 30 Austin-Healey automobiles as well as 20 other
British marque vehicles.
Ownership of an
Austin-Healey is not a prerequisite to membership in our club. A number of our members do not own an
Austin-Healey, but are British sports car enthusiasts. We all share the desire to enjoy our British
sports cars to the fullest!
In 1997 our club
became an area club of the Austin-Healey Club of America (AHCA). The AHCA includes over 3300 members
throughout North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. It publishes a monthly magazine, an annual
membership listing booklet and photo calendar, as well as sponsors an
international Austin-Healey car meet known as the Conclave.
Our club meets
on a monthly basis on the first Monday of the month at 7:30 p.m. (except for
holidays, then on the second Monday of the month). Currently we’re meeting at a different member’s
home each month – contact our Webmaster for the next meeting.
From May until
October, our club also meets every Sunday night at 7:30 p.m. at the Pony Corral
parking lot at Grant Park Shopping Centre. At about 8:00 p.m. members from our club and
the Triumph Drivers Club of Manitoba (TDCM) and Mid-Canada Mini Group (MCMG)
depart for a drive and ice-cream or coffee.
