Welcome to the West Sussex Caravan Club centre website and thank you for taking the time to come and visit. We hope to keep this site updated on a regular basis and would encourage you to visit it often to keep up to date with centre news and current events.
The weekend of 19th - 21st June saw the annual hog roast and what a weekend it was. Although bookings were slow coming in, we eventually ended up with 43 vans and almost 100 people for the evening meal. We were delighted with the turnout and would like to say special thanks to everybody that participated, either by assisting with food preparation, shopping, carving the meat, cleaning up afterwards or just by coming along and joining in. It would not have been the success it was without you so big thanks to you all.
The rally at Fishery Creek was also a great success, so much so that our rally sec is trying to get a booking there for next years program following a number of comments asking when we will return to this venue.
Heaven Farm, Lewes was run by Sue and Dave Massey and a great weekend was had by those that attended.
Our CLO's Malcolm and Jill Webb report that the National Rally at Prestwold Hall was reasonably well supported. Members were welcomed onto our lines with bacon rolls and tea and coffee which were appreciated by those that attended.
The Alfriston rally was well supported with 30 of the 38 vans booked arriving for the weekend. There was a music quiz on Saturday evening which was good fun with many of the participants singing along to the old tunes. A buffet was provided at a reasonable cost and many ralliers commented they had enjoyed themselves.
As you will see from the reports above, our centre is growing and the vans in attendance so far this year are certainly higher in number than last year. We pride ourselves on being a friendly centre and enjoy seeing so many friends on the rally field. If you have not been to a West Sussex rally recently, why not come and join us and see for yourselves.
Next years rally program is almost complete but we are looking for rally officers to run the 4 remaining rallies. If you would be willing to run one of them, please contact Malcolm Webb who can show you the program.
We are always looking for new venues and for people to run rallies. If you know of a place that we might be able to visit, please inform a member of the committee and they will follow it up. If you would like to run a rally but are worried about what it involves, why not team up with somebody else. Many of the committee take on additional rallies so they don't have to be cancelled and we would all welcome the opportunity to show you what is involved.
Finally, please support your rally officers who put a lot of effort into organising events for your enjoyment. Rally weekends are a great way of getting to know people, making long lasting friendships and also offer terrific value for money entertainment.
Hope to meet up with you all soon.
Best wishes
Carol Wightman
