"All Rover Weekend"

Post by MG Mal » Sun Dec 04, 2011 10:14 pm

Apparently there is an "All Rover" weekend being planned for next year???

The following was posted on the 200/400 club today, but fails to state which "Rover Clubs" have set this up.

Anyone here who is part of the supposed "senior" Rover clubs know anything about it?
Just got told about this

The joint rover clubs is organizing this event . it is designed to bring together every one rover for one fun weekend.

Rovercamp 2012 the idea is for an informal camping/caravanning weekend where the only pre-requisite is an interest in Rovers.

Date - Weekend of 27th-29th July 2012.

Location - Lower Lacon Caravan Park near Wem in Shropshire. The park is family oriented with restaurant/bar swimming pool/shop etc. Full details at http://www.llcp.co.uk
I have arranged the following prices for the weekend £20.00 per a night, for a 120 sq meter pitch with electric hook up, or £10.00 a night if two small tents are on one pitch. We will be in our own area near the facilities.

The site will keep the option open for us till Christmas, by which time I need to confirm our attendance. So... how many people are interested, I already have a few people who want to come with tents and caravans. This is not RSR only, any Rover enthusiast is welcome so please pass this invite on to anyone else. If we get enough people we may be able to organize a group barbeque or similar.

would be great to get lots of coupes there ! . common dust off that ring camping gear u oldys .

and this would be a great weekend for all members new and old.

and it wont just be 200/200's it will be p5's p6's sd1s . anything and everything rover !

There is a joint Rover club, I suspect that this has been organised by them, I believe the 200/400 is part of it.

I don't think there would be a problem in us attending, I would be very surprised if we were turned down

Hi Mal,

thanks for your enquiry, I am the person in the RSR who was trying to see
if there was any interest in a Rovercamp weekend next year. The Joint
Rover Clubs is a collection of Rover Clubs with the aim of working
together to promote the Rover marque and also to benfit from each other's
experience, so I asked them if there was any interest.


Following on a discussion at a rally last year, the topic was raised of
'doing something different' maybe with a more family focus.

As a result I decided to try and organise Rovercamp 2012 the idea is for
an informal camping/caravanning weekend where the only pre-requisite is an
interest in Rovers.


In answer to your question, would the members of www.rover800.info be
welcome at such an event? The answer is a definite yes. Anyone interested
in Rovers of any age is welcome, so please pass it on.

I have had a good response so far so it looks like it will happen, I will
send out more details later.

Paul Williams
So there we have it, as expected we are more than welcome to join in the event.

Richard, is it worth making this a sticky?, and an official forum event for next year?.

Mal.

Sounds like it could be a good do. I've not the foggiest idea as to whether or not I'll be able to be there, it all depends on the workload (and given that "long term planning" extends as far as tomorrow, I probably won't know until it's too late to get a flight ticket!).
