Speed week Evening Reception @ Graycliff


Evening Reception and Buffet at the world-renowned Graycliff Hotel and Restaurant

Set for November 24-December 2, Bahamas Speed Week 2012 kicks off with a concert at Arawak Cay on Saturday evening followed by a Miss Speed Week Pageant Sunday. Some 60 classic racing and sports cars, including several belonging to local drivers, will participate in time trials, an island tour at speeds of over 100 miles per hour and a hill climb at Fort Charlotte as well as other activities and exhibitions throughout the week. The event, once the supreme highlight of Nassau's social calendar, was revived last year after a 46-year hiatus and this year's plans are far more ambitious.

For Alexandra Maillis-Lynch, whose company, Alexandra's, is providing all catering and coordination services for the VIP Paddock Club, Speed Week has spawned new equipment, office space rental and given birth to a related business -- event management with a high-end twist.

"Speed Week is an exciting project that I hope keeps growing and growing, spilling over into other areas," said Maillis-Lynch, who expects to have a staff of more than 30 working during the event. As a direct result of Speed Week, she rented office space in historic Nassau, purchased new equipment -- and most significantly, started a related business in high-end event management. "I like major projects like this," she says, "I find it thrilling."

Crispin Cleare, whose company C Cube Seating, has the contract for bleachers to seat up to 5,000 spectators, a media platform and more than 25,000 square feet of tenting, said he'll have about two dozen workers on site throughout the event.
