On Friday evening of  October 21 the Grafton Sporting Car Club (or G.S.C.C.) as part of its community support program attended the monthly Car Meet held at the Grafton Library by ‘Changing Lanes, Changing Lives’, a youth and community automotive initiative coordinated by a young automotive enthusiast.

The program is funded by the ‘Foundation for Rural Regional Renewal’ and the ‘Yulgilbar Foundation’ and delivered by The School of Arts Neighbourhood House Inc. The G.S.C.C. is a proud supporter of the organisation as it aims to improve outcomes for disadvantaged youth in our community.

Despite the inclement weather 50 to 60 vehicles and several hundred people turned out to check out the cars, enjoy free food and drinks, along with live music. Changing Lanes, Changing Lives has two more events planned for this year on November 25 and a Christmas Edition on December 16. The Grafton Sporting Car Club will be at both events so come down say ‘Hi ‘ and talk to us about coming ‘Hillclimb Racing,’ and, involve yourself in what is becoming a great community event.
