Dear Healey friends!
We wish you a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
- EHM 2023
Dear Healey friends
December is already here and we all go into pre-Christmas preparations. We would like to give a short update on next year’s EHM and one activity where registration due date is approaching fast.
For Thursday 15 June, we have planned two different activities – “Rally Ålesund” and “Auto slalom”, and it is the latter we would like to draw your attention to in this newsletter.
The auto slalom event is a fun competition where each car will drive a 500-metre track twice and where there are nice prizes for the top performing cars. The track requires no particular skills, and it is not a speed challenge. The event takes place in the area close to the Ville Krefter museum which is an old power plant rebuilt into a museum and activity centre, and lunch for participants will be served here.
Also in the vicinity (~10 kilometers) you can find the Zakarias dam, which is an impressive concrete structure used for hydro power production. At the time of construction (1968) the dam was the tallest in Northern Europe.
It is possible to visit the museum, the Zakarias dam, and even watch the auto slalom competition without being a participant. However, if you would like to have lunch at the Ville Krefter museum, this must be pre-ordered.
If you would like to participate in the auto slalom at the Ville Krefter museum, we ask that you please confirm your participation no later than 15 January 2023 by sending an email to treasurer@ehm2023.com. Price for participation is NOK 950,- per car which includes lunch for both passengers. The cost will be added to the second payment due 31 January 2023.
If you would like to buy only lunch at the Ville Krefter museum you need to confirm it by email day before the EHM 2023 start.
We wish you all a nice advent and will check-in again before Christmas.

Update June 2022:
Dear Austin Healey friends,
As summer break is finally upon us or quickly approaching, we thought we would like to give you a short update regarding next year’s EHM 2023 in Norway.
Preparations and planning are well underway, and as part of getting in the right vacation mood, we paid a visit to Geiranger, our destination, and test drove some of the routes exactly one year before we all can finally gather there physically. As you can see from the pictures, it is an area of great contrasts. Deep valleys and long fjords make this part of Norway and the world a remarkable nature experience. With mountains literally stretching all the way down to sea level, the difference in altitude makes it possible to experience a green and lush valley side as well as a snow and ice covered mountain pass within a mere 30 minute drive. At times the roads are so steep that 180 degree turns are more the norm than the exception. Other times the mountain roads are so narrow that the surrounding environment feels as if its one with the car.
We were definitely breath-taken by some of the routes we drove and we hope that you all will enjoy them as much as we have so far in preparing for next year’s event.
We truly look forward to welcoming you all to EHM 2023 in Geiranger one year from now and wish you a wonderful summer!
Regards
Knut Horgen

We are proud to say Amundsen Sports is one of our sponsors. Just look at their great
promo video here.
Update December 2021:
Dear Healey friends
Thank you for your beyond interest for EHM 2023. Booking was overwhelming, but it took a
relatively short time before we understood our under-capacity accommodation problem. Luckily, we saw a chance to improve hotel capacity by 25%. We succeed not only with additional number of
rooms but with our intentions to offer you best possible stay in Geiranger. It means many of you awaiting an answer, will receive by e -mail booking confirmation or waiting list confirmation.
This process still takes some days, so please be patient with us.
Some preliminary figures, EHM 2023 has more than 250
bookings. One booking means 1 car with a crew. Beside that, we have significant waiting list. The pie chart below shows percentage of participations from corresponding
countries.
We are preparing more info about possible routes, suggestions regarding best destinations and suggestions in Norway. Please look at our website EHM 2023. Any other question can be addressed by
e-mail to info@ehm2023.com
We wish you merry Christmas and happy new year 2022.

Update October 2021:
Exciting news! On Saturday we
will open up for bookings (30.10.21). We will remind you of this on our Facbookpage as soon as the booking is live.
Have a good week :)
Update (August 2021)!
We are still following the pandemic situation, and this will of course affect our work and probably your decision whether to participate or not. However, we have at least decided to continue planning for an event in 2023 (June 12th-18th).
To continue our work, we need to know how many of you think will join us in Norway in 2023. In short time we will present a preliminary program, date of registration, registration fee and prices for participation.
PS: We would like to remind you that participation at EHM2023 requires membership of a national Austin Healey Club.
Dear Healey friends
The pandemic situation has hit the world hard and we still do not know the end of it. It will be many months until we can say that we have succeeded in fighting the Corona virus. Hopefully, there will be a vaccine available soon. Until then, we must do our best and follow what the authorities advise us to do in order to stay safe through these difficult times.
After considering all the circumstances, we have concluded that it will be difficult to plan and carry out an event in June 2022.
At this moment, national regulations in Norway prevent Geiranger Hotel to accept reservations for groups of more than 200 people. It is also difficult for possible participants to decide to come to Norway for the European Healey Meeting. Travel arrangements needs to be planned and cars to shipped which requires time.
Therefore, the organizing committee of the 6th European Healey Meeting has set new dates; we want to welcome all of you Healey enthusiasts to Hotel Union Geiranger, Norway 12.-18. June 2023.
Until then, we will continue planning and open a preliminary registration around springtime 2021. This will give us an indication of interest for the event. A mandatory registration will be possible autumtime 2021.
We will provide you with information on our website; ehm2022.com and you can join us on Facebook (European Healey Meeting 2022). We will change the name, from 2022 to 2023 in due time.
We hope you will stay safe and healthy!
