Members News

After many years as a serving Trustee for the club, Dave Spall has taken the difficult decision to step away from the position of Trustee.

Jan and Dave have been members of the club for over 37 years and after recently deciding to sell their Motorhome now become Honorary Life Members of the club. In correspondence to me, Dave and Jan send their best wishes to the club and would like to encourage members to take up positions on the committee or as officers to help take the club forward.

Jan has offered to continue in her role as Editor for Going Places until the Spring edition of 2023 has been published, she will then retire from that position.

Elaine Baker,

Club Secretary.

Please note the Treasurer has a new address with immediate effect. His new address is: 11 Hepworth Close, Andover. Hampshire. SP10 3TD

Regrettably this rally has now been cancelled due to a lack of support.

Maureen & Michael Goff, Rally Marshals

Unfortunately, due to the lack of uptake on this rally, we have reluctantly taken the decision to cancel the Hampton Court Rally No.32

This is obviously very disappointing, but the current numbers signed up has meant that we would be charged the full commercial rate of £20 per night.

All Rally Booking Vouchers will be returned to you (on my return from our holiday). The cheques have not been banked and will be securely disposed off and any cash will be refunded to you via the SOC bank.

Once again, my sincere apologies.

Best regards, Paul & Julia Hardy

David & Tracy Falshaw, Dean and Dawn Robinson

The marshals appreciate that some members decide to go on a rally only a few weeks prior to the rally. The Garden Festival is absolutely well worth a visit, plus you can visit Hampton Court itself, or go for a river trip etc. However we appeal to you to consider coming on this rally and making that decision as early as possible, for the reason as set out below.

We currently require a minimum of two more members to join this rally to achieve the Site fee of £14 per night. If the required number is not achieved then the rate will increase to £20 per night, booked on an individual basis and it would not be run as a normal rally.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Ken and Pam Baldrey, Paul and Julia Hardy.
