As you may be aware, we almost lost the site last week. I moved the site to keep it alive and i can continue to do so if we are able to group together and get some funding to cover the annual cost of the site :thumbup:

We would like everyone to try and make a small contribution to help keep the site costs covered. Any donation above £1 is welcome. If you donate £3 or more, you will receive a Camaro Club sticker (it has the old website address on the bottom, hope that isn't an issue). If you donate over £3 and would like a sticker, send me a PM with your delivery address and let me know the paypal email address that the donation came from. I'll send it in an envelope 1st class.

To donate: please click the below paypal link, add the below email address as the recipient and choose "family / friends" (so that no service fee is applied). If you put goods/ services paypal applies a fee (3% + 25p!) so if you send £1, only 72p makes it over here. (It will likely ask you to login). :

The send to email address is:

Yep, it's the rum drink combo, followed by the famous route in the U.S, followed by one of the oldest email address endings. I put the email as an image, otherwise it gets picked up by spammers. Simply click the link above, enter the above email address, enter an amount, choose friends / family and thank you!

If we raise more than needed, it will go into next years site hosting costs. All of the money goes to the cost of the site and that's it. It doesn't go to anyone in the club, it goes straight to the hosting cost and no where else. I've heard some clubs even bought a club vehicle from the membership fees :shock: That's not how we think.

I was going to add paypal donate button that you can click straight in here which would be super simple, but they take fees for donations - 2.9% + 25p :thumbdown:

Thank you in advance for any donation you are able to make!! A few changes worth noting:
1) There is a new website address as you may know from being able to read this
2) We have a better hosting plan that allows for more bandwidth and...
3) Picture uploads! Yes, you can now upload pics! No more faffing with external sites. When posting, simply click the "add attachment" part and go from there. Pictures should be a max of 2.3MB. You can still use photobucket etc. and if you can it does help - we still have to be a bit conscious of space and bandwidth.
4) Moved the events section to the top of the page. Seems to be something that came up in several conversations, so let's keep that part buzzing and attend anywhere we can. I'll be adding some dates for some get togethers for the club :thumbup:
5) Cars for sale section is now free to post in. If you're a trader we would like a donation of £5 but private sellers can create their own adverts.
6) Few small updates to the forum functionality i.e. on the right hand side you now see the topic name that has been most recently posted in, as well as the author.
7) You also get a notification appear on the top left when someone replies to a thread you posted in.

Thanks and let's make this the best year the club has seen! (that was pretty cheesy, sorry).

Stu that's brilliant thank you!! Another very generous donation :D :thumbup: Do you want me to mail you a sticker or keep one aside for next time we meet?

I'm looking into adding an option to add some kind of image / mark to the profile of people that donate, to help recognise your efforts. Hopefully will have something by the end of the weekend. If you would prefer not to have something like this, just let me know.

Cheers!
