About
Skylinesdownunder:
Skylinesdownunder the club, originally formed as an enthusiast
group of people whom enjoyed visiting this website. From those
humble beginnings in late 1999 where the website would recieve
around 10 visits per day, and the club boasted as many members.
The club has become an identity New Zealandwide, and stands
unrivalled as the Nissan Skyline Enthusiast Club of New Zealand.
Statistics in late August showed an average of around 400 visits
to the Skylinesdownunder website during the day and boasted
a membership of 145 members as at 31 August 2000. The largest
percentage of membership is in the Auckland region filtering
out from there, and membership spreads are far South as Invercargill.
Demographics:
All Skyline owners are welcome to join the club regardless of
model type, personal age or lifestyle. The youngest member as
of August 31 2000 is 16 years old and the oldest (that we know
of) is 63 years old. We are brought together by personal enthusiasm
and are by no means aiming to cater for a specific demographic.
This is a club for everyone. |
Activities:
As we become more established in the different regions the frequency
and quality of activites will certainly increase. This club like
all clubs is member driven so without member participation there
will be no activity, so we emplore that you take part as much as
possible whenever possible. Ultimately having you simply turnup
to a cruise, drag meet, or tech talk will retain peoples interest,
as ultimately it is all about us being a Skyline community. The
scope of activities will range from regular meets at predetermined
points in main centres on a weekly basis, monthly social meetings
if possible (to plan larger activities and give oppurtunity to meet
and exchange ideas), drag meets at approved race tracks, gymkhana,
barbecues and social activities as locally planned, technical workshops
(as made available) Your involvement is crucial to the success of
these activities, if you have any suggestions, would like to appoint
a regular cruise and meet point in your town (eg McD's at 12pm Sunday
on the main street), would like to suggest or generate interest
for an activity, or would like to get more involved please do not
hesitate to email skylinesdownunder@yahoo.com
and tell us about what's happening in your area. We also suggest
that you make use of your local area notice board in the forum.
The Committee:
Skylinesdownunder currently operates on the donated effort of all
involved. Directors have been appointed in most areas to help facilitate
steady & organised growth. More people are needed to help the
inception of the club itself, especially in the less established
areas. As a non-profit organisation we rely on our member base to
generate, sustain and direct our growth.
