Next Years Rallies

To all Rally Officers

Thank you for your support in 2020 through these difficult times, I am sure many of you are disappointed that you have not been able to run your Rallies this year. We all appreciate the hard work you all put in organising these events for our enjoyment.

This year has seen many rallies cancelled which has had a serious effect on the centres earnings. Therefore as we plan ahead for the 2021 rally programme, we would like to run a lot more rallies in our programme to recover from the financial loss due to Covid 19.

I am therefore asking each rally officer to confirm to me by return whether they want to run their usual rallies as per the 2020 programme in 2021.I would also like to appeal to you all to consider taking on one or two extra rallies next year, If you know of a member who has not run a rally before consider asking them to run a rally with you.

You may have a new venue in mind please let me know if this is the case, we would like to increase the number of rallies in our programme to a minimum of 65 next year.

Remember it is our Club, we will only get out of it what we as members  are prepared to put in. 

Thank you from all the Committee for all you have done for our centre in the past and hopefully for the future.

 Kind regards

 Your Rally Secretary  & Assistant Rally Secretary

Officers and Committee Restructuring for 2020 season

As you will be aware, Ross Oliver stood down from his role as Rally Secretary yesterday and as this is a vital role within the Committee, the position required filling without delay as booking sites for 2021 programme is well underway – so a swift transition is required.

With this in mind, Graham has asked Malcolm to step in and fill the role as Rally Secretary and Sean Tarrant to assist.  They have both kindly agreed – and between them they will work together in producing a programme for us to enjoy.

They will also continue in their existing roles as Kit and Equipment Officers.

Graham will continue assisting them with collections from store when required.

As we are currently not rallying at this moment, when we do get back on the rally field, we feel that no role will suffer as a result of restructuring until all positions are reviewed at our AGM.

Graham and the rest of the Committee would like to thank Malcolm and Sean for taking on the extra duty ensuring we have a programme for the 2021 season.

Your Committee.

Resignation

It is with great sadness the Committee have to announce that Ross Oliver, our Rally Secretary, has resigned with immediate effect.

Circumstances have changed for him recently and he feels he cannot give the role the time it requires.  It is not a decision he has made lightly but one he felt he had to make – and we therefore fully support him. Ross has been a valued member of our team and will be sadly missed by us all.

In the current situation of Covid19 and being unable to get out and enjoy our hobby, the Rally Secretary duties will be covered by the existing Committee for the rest of this season – including completing the 2021 programme. 

We hope you will join us in thanking Ross for all the work he has done for the Centre & wish him all the best in the future – and look forward to seeing him back on the rally field when the current restrictions are over.

Your Committee.

The Caravan and Motorhome Club Singers are looking for a new Accompanist/Pianist.

The choir was formed 15 years ago and consists of members of the Club who like to combine their hobby of caravanning and motorhoming with their passion for singing.

The group consists of about 70 people, mainly husband and wife, who meet up 5 or 6 times a year and hold weekend rehearsal rallies, with a view to performing concerts for Club events.

Because members come from all parts of the UK, rallies are held mainly in the Midlands area ie Leicestershire, Staffordshire and Warwickshire region.

Our current Accompanist is stepping down at the end of September and we are looking to recruit an experienced accompanist asap who has a caravan or motorhome. Not much to ask is it?!!

To help us find someone, could you please publicise this request on your web site, or on any newsletter that you send out to your centres members.  Do you personally know of anyone or can you help us yourself?

Further information about us can be found at our web-site viz :

or alternatively e-mail our secretary at : secretary.

Many thanks for your help with this request
