Re-arranged annual summer event

Members,

As you all know, we had to cancel our original annual summer event at Billing Aquadrome, due to bad weather.

This event was to be shared along with the ZClub and other Zed related UK clubs, to join in the celebrations marking 30 years of the ZClub.

Derek Sulley from the ZClub has been working non stop since the cancellation, trying to find an alternative date and venue. We are now in a position to confirm that the event will be held on the weekend Friday 7th ~ Sunday 9th September 2007.

The NEW VENUE: Sherbrooke Scout Camp, Mansfield Lane, Calverton, NG14 6HP. This site has some excellent facilities. (Some will not be available to us this year due to other bookings but future events here look promising). We have a meadow to ourselves together with a large marquee. There is a toilet, washing and shower block. The site has 22 acres of grassland and a 5 acre wood if you want to get out and about. You will be able to camp or caravan and there is some on site accommodation available. eg. Fernwood lodge is a wooden clad portakabin type building having two rooms, the smaller sleeps 4 and the larger sleeps 10 for a rent of £75 per weekend. There are also on site caravans sleeping 5 for £40 per weekend. Local B & B’s are available but you must make your own arrangements.

The agenda for the weekend will be exactly the same as was planned for Billing. The 300ZX.co.uk Annual General Meeting will be 16:00 on the Saturday. The Annual Club Awards will be Sunday afternoon.

The Club Committee had booked 3 large attractions for Billing (Bucking Bronco, Sumo’s and Bungee Run) and we have managed to secure a re-arranged booking, meaning all the attractions will be at the new venue on the Saturday.

On Saturday evening we will have some team sports and a social. Sunday will have the car show and another round of sports for those seeking revenge. Food will also be available throughout the weekend, courtesy of our resident club barbeque expert.

There will be an entry fee of £5 per car and camping is £1.80 per person per night.

You should be aware that this is a very active scout camp and young people will be about at all times. There are speed bumps and you must drive at less than 5mph with headlights and hazard lights switched on.

We acknowledge that this confirmation is short notice, as the weekend is only five weeks away.

We hope as many members as possible are able to make the weekend.

Regards

The 300ZX.co.uk Committee
