Holdens roll in

By Casey Neill

The Dandenong All Holden Car Show is returning for its 10th year.
The Rotary Club of Endeavour Hills event will run from 10am on Sunday 18 March at the Dandenong Showgrounds in Bennet Street.
All funds raised will support the Rotarians with local and international projects.
Event chairman John Ternel took on the role last year and introduced more family-friendly activities, more awards and more food stalls.
More than 400 Holdens rolled into last year’s show.
Experts provided advice and demonstrations, and judges presented about 100 trophies.
“It was great to see people getting the bug for car shows,” Mr Ternel said.
“Stand out – that’s how you win trophies.
“You’re not copying someone.
“You’re being an individual, you’re different.”
Last year there were two new awards that will make a return, the under-30s title and a women’s prize.
Call Mr Ternel on 0412 539 538 during business hours to find out more about the show or supporting Rotary.
