WELCOME TO THE PITTWATER MOTOR ENTHUSIASTS ASSOCIATION

Pittwater Motoring Enthusiasts Association (PMEA or the Club) was founded in 1994 on the Northern Beaches and Pittwater region of Sydney. The Club fosters a friendship among people with a shared interest in vehicles of all types both old and new, including cars, motorcycles and other types of machinery and equipment.

The Club encourages the preservation, restoration, maintenance, use and display of historic vehicles and machinery.

Members and guests can attend fortnightly Tuesday meetings held at the Pittwater R.S.L. 82 Mona Vale Road, Mona Vale starting at 7.30pm.

Members meet socially in a range of regular events from our Events Calendar. The Club is very proud of its support, via donations, to charitable organisations each year. A Club magazine 'STAY TUNED' is published online every two months.

Most importantly, the Club encourages members to be active participants, not just joining the Club for the ‘cheap rego.’

The Pittwater RSL has the Glasshouse Grill if you want to arrive early for dinner or a light snack, full bar facilities and plenty of off-street parking.

AUSTRALIAN MOTOR HERITAGE FOUNDATION

The Book 'n Mags Swap Table - each meeting of PMEA

PMEA members Henry Ford (aka Henry De Gilde) and Kirk McDougall (for the Australian Motor Heritage Foundation) will operate the following each meeting (unless sickness or other prevents):

- Collect your old/unwanted/pre-loved Books and Magazines of motoring interest or aviation.
- Bring an armful (only) to each meeting and leave them on the dedicated table.
- At end-of-meeting other PMEA members can sift and take whatever they want as now being their property.
- Whatever is left, Henry and Kirk can sort and take as they wish for their operation or AMHF on-forwarding, respectively..
- Any remaining unwanted items after each meeting's exchange will be donated to the Lifeline Books collection or pulped as appropriate.
- Each meeting has a fresh clean desk with whatever that week's donations brings, with all gone away after each meeting.
- So you can use the desk as a library, a donation point or a skip bin for literature of interest to Members and others with similar interests.
 
P.S.    Obviously if you have multiple boxes talk with us rather than dump them at one meeting (we are only human too)
