You can now book online for the 2023 AGM Rally. See the online booking section later on this page or click HERE . An early booking for this rally would be appreciated. If you prefer there is also a booking form in the Summer edition of Going Places and a downloadable PDF form in the AGM Documents section on the General Info web page.

If you intend to join the ACCEO rally at the beginning of October  (Page 62 in the Rally book) would you send me your booking now and certainly no later than 1st August, after which I will be away.

If you are still to pay by BACs would you also send the payment to the Association of Caravanning and Camping Exempted Organisations by the beginning of August. This will allow the Finance Officer and the Burstner Club time to get their planning done for what will be a big rally.

As you may know one of our Trustees David Spall has stood down after many years in the position due to health issues.

The Club has previously appointed four Trustees for the Club in accordance with the Club’s Constitution section 12 

So accordingly, the Committee as it’s duty requested nominations to be put forward to fill the vacant position. This was done and from those put forward to the Committee a vote was taken to  appoint.  Joan Howard was selected by a majority vote and has accepted the position, which is subject to ratification at the Club’s Annual General Meeting in October. A letter has been written by the Secretary to inform the new Trustee and a letter sent to the other applicants accordingly.

We look forward to Joan joining the Trustees and wish her well in the role.

Ron Ward, Chairman and Trustee
