Hi everyone, just under a couple of weeks and we can now share details of the planned activities for the weekend. We know that some people will want to spend some time at the site either working on their cars, or having things done to them, but will also want to get out and about. Therefore we have put together the following itinerary of optional activities
Saturday Morning - arrival and set up (some of us are arriving friday night)
Saturday Afternoon - Dales Drive

or
Visit to the
Forbidden Corner This may be suitable for those with younger club members (or indeed 53 year old big kids like me) It will need to be booked however so we would need to know numbers soon. Looking at the map, it may be possible to do some of the tour and then head off at Reeth to go to the Forbidden Corner
Saturday Evening - BBQ and games - there is a BBQ on site so we were thinking people could either bring their own to BBQ, or we could provide basic, hot dog, burger (or veggie options), plus accompaniments, for £3 a head. We have some outdoor games (giant Jenga etc, to keep us entertained)
Sunday morning - drive to Barnard Castle - There is a fee to enter the Castle itself, or people may wish to just have a wander around . I will look to book a group ticket if sufficient people are interesting in visiting the castle itself
Sunday afternoon - Some people (me included sadly), may need to start to head off due to long journeys), but otherwise, we will aim to go for lunch at
The Rokeby Inn (i am just confirming the maximum number they can accommodate - they also do takeaway food for anyone staying friday night)
I will try to find a way of collecting details of what people would like to do and post that asap, but just wanted to let you have a look at the plans in the meantime. Really looking forward to meeting you all
ps - i have hopefully contacted those who wanted electric hook up, or B & B, but if not, they are confirmed
