Grand Tours ... the Okanagan Car Club Rally in the Valley is a very popular annual event which takes place in either Kelowna or Pentiction, during the early part of July. The Portland All British Field Meet attracts a significant group of motoring enthusiasts almost every year. Another event, the Laguna Seca trip to California, generatess considerable interest and participation.

Ice Cream Runs ... during the summer months, on the Wednesday following the monthly meeting, a run, designed by a volunteer club member, takes place with an appropriate destination (local dispenser of ice cream).

Slaloms ... conducted at either the Camosun Campus parking lot or at Western Speedway. This is a timed event in which only one car is allowed on the track during a 'run'.

The major slalom event of the year is the All British Slalom which takes place in June and is very popular with a the membership and invited quests.

Soupcon Run ... a tour of the countryside followed by lunch at the home of Alex and Ruth Moffoot. A tasty collection of different soups with buns, cheese and dessert make this event a taste sensation!!
