Club Events
The Volvo Club of BC hosts a number of annual events. The Club joins Don Docksteader Motors for their annual May Garage Sale with a display of members' cars. In mid June, members participate in a Spring weekend drive through some destination through southern BC. A large contingent on Vancouver Island hosts several drive or display events through the summer months. The Cate's Park Picnic is our annual end-of-the-summer event and, thanks to our organizing committee, normally features warm sunny weather. Our annual club technical session is normally held late in the year or early the following year. Technical topics vary, but are always interesting and informative.
