Hi all.
After having a natter with a couple of other members I though I might make a proposal.
I have spoken to Tony S today about future events at Lincomb and he has confirmed that they are getting more and more busy with the horsey side so an autumn event is likely to be around or after the second week in October. The last thing I want to do is step on anyones toes so confirmed with him that he doesn't mind.
What I am proposing is to have our club meets still twice a year. One down at Lincomb (June as it is already organised) and another further north in the autumn to try and pursuade our northern brethren to meet up as we all know how good these sorts of weekends are.
I have been organising weekend meets for our local club for the last couple of years and would be happy to do so for all you guys.
I am thinking of Kirton Off Road Centre, 600 acres of off roading from the tame to the extreme and about 3 football size camping fields (some with electric hook up). I will be looking at charging the same as for the Lincomb weekend as long as we can get the number there. (bear in mind that 2 days playing at KORC is usually £80 plus camping) below is the price list for last autumn's Lincomb and these should be the prices we are looking at for the Kirton weekend
2 day pass. £65 per vehicle with driver and co-driver
(Includes camping facilities for Fri & Sat night)
2 day pass. £55 per vehicle with driver only
(Includes camping facilities for Fri & Sat night,)
One day pass. £35 per vehicle with driver and co- driver
(Includes vehicle pass on either Sat or Sun, camping facilities for either Fri or Sat night)
Day attending Saturday / Sunday
One day pass. £30 per vehicle with driver only
(Includes vehicle pass on either Sat or Sun, camping facilities for either Fri or Sat night)
Day attending Saturday / Sunday
I understand if you guys want to involve our existing catering team however if no one objects our local scout group would be very grateful of the opportunity to do some fundraising.
Also wondering if it is worth inviting the dark side. The way I see it is the more the merrier. It's not their fault they haven't seen the light.
And just in case anyone was wondering I do not intend to take any profit from the weekend. Any profit that does arise from the weekend will be put back into the kitty either for the following year, (may get a freebee eventually) or bits and pieces like that all with the focus of providing a better, more interesting weekend for us all.
So basically guys let me know what you think. Love it or hate it all replies welcome.
Thanks
Chris
