Rotary Club Morimondo Abbey

The meeting ended with great participation 13th edition of Rotary Historica, organized by the Rotary Club Morimondo Abbazia in collaboration with the Rotary Club Pavia Nord.
The event, dedicated to the memory of Ambrogio Locatelli, brought together 65 historic and youngtimer cars, with over 160 participants.
The day was an opportunity to combine a passion for vintage cars with the discovery of the territory and social commitment.
The route started from Morimondo, where the cars were welcomed by many enthusiasts and onlookers.
The departure was also attended by the Lombard regional councillor Silvia Scurati and the mayor of Morimondo Marco Iamoni.
The protagonists of the event were cars from very different eras and characteristics.
From the most prestigious historic cars to the youngtimer, all have attracted the attention of the public along the way.
One of the most significant moments of the day was the visit to the Kartell Museum of Noviglio.
The participants were thus able to learn about the history of one of the most well-known Italian companies in the field of design.
Particular attention was also paid to the relationship between Kartell and the automotive world.
Among the first products made by the company were in fact also accessories intended for cars.
After the visit to the museum, the event continued with a convivial dinner and the traditional awards ceremony.
The Golden Piston has been assigned to an Autobianchi Bianchina Transformable America.
Second place for a Fiat 130 Saloon and third for a Ferrari 360 Modena with manual transmission.
The Milan Automobile Club Award was instead awarded to a female crew driving a Mini Cooper.
The collaboration of the Milano Historic Cars Club is also important
However, the value of the initiative remained above all at the center of the initiative solidarity.
The proceeds from the event will in fact be allocated to research and assistance projects.
The Golgi Cenci Foundation, the Soleterre Foundation and AGD – Association of Young People with Diabetes will benefit from the collection.
Rotary Historica thus confirms itself as an event capable of uniting motoring, culture, territory and charity, transforming the passion for cars into a concrete gesture of solidarity.
