We all know what happens on a rally or do we?
For new members or those who have not rallied before, here is some information to help you get the most out of your weekend away with us.
A rally is a get together of like minded club members who meet over a weekend or holiday, to promote friendship and pursue many pleasures, pastimes and sports in a light hearted manner with plenty of fun along the way. Whether you take part and join in, or entirely do your own thing – just relax and enjoy your weekend.
The Rally Officer's are ordinary members who have volunteered to run a rally for the benefit of us all, and they welcome your support and response to their efforts. This usually includes signing the approach roads to the rally field, and sometimes organising competitions and entertainment for all ages.
Water supply and facilities for the disposal of waste water and toilet emptying is always be provided.
The starting times of rallies are often listed within the rally details. The time stated allows the Rally Officer's sufficient time to prepare, so please do not arrive before this time. Where no time is given, start times are 16:00 hours on the first day. On arrival, drive up to the rally officer's van (usually the first on the field), where you will get all the information you need. They will hand you an envelope containing information about the rally.
The Rally Officer's will help you site your outfit ensuring there is adequate spacing between units, and they are your first point of contact for any assistance that you may require.
During the rally, there is a flagpole meeting. This is where ralliers gather together, to welcome new ralliers and visitors, hear results of any competitions, learn of forthcoming events and thank the rally officer's for organising the rally.
All you need in addition to items you would normally take to a commercial site is your own toilet and containers for fresh and waste water.
Why not give it a try?
We have some great locations in some out of the way places in parts of the
Bedfordshire countryside. We sometimes venture further afield and
we rally abroad!
If you would like to come along to a rally, call any of the Committee or Rally Officer's stated in the book or use our online booking system on this website. We all enjoy caravanning and the pleasure it gives us and would like to share our pastime with you.
We look forward to seeing you in the future.
The Committee,
Bedfordshire Centre.
