Organising committee
The party with overall responsibility for an event (also called event management). It is usually the main point of contact for authorities and other key partners.
The organising committee (German Organisationsleitung or Veranstaltungsleitung) has overall responsibility for a classic-car event. It handles the entire organisation and is usually the central point of contact for authorities, partners and other key contacts. It should be distinguished from the clerk of the course (Fahrtleitung), who is responsible for the sporting side – the route and the scoring. Internationally it corresponds to the event organiser or organising committee.
