Hi All,

Some of you will be aware that Craig (mrinverted) has been arranging an event near Huntington for some time now and has received a good response from members. I have had discussions with Craig to see how the club can assist.

The Plan remains the same as per Craig's previous post Camping, BBQ and Run Out. I will bring along My PA system to provide a bit of evening entertainment in the barn/Outside if weather is good.

To ensure that numbers do not get out of hand and to ensure we have enough food/Space to accommodate everyone we have decided to make this a ticketed event.

A link will be posted here on 27th April 2018 to enable Non Members to join us. Further information will follow.

To ensure that Craig is not out of pocket for this event a small donation is suggested when attending the event and anything over the costs will be donated to charity (To Be Confirmed) Club Funding will be applied for which will keep costs low and make this and enjoyable event.

Hope to see you there!

Keith Kelly (Event Sec) & Craig (mrinverted)

This is a nice show at Ragley Hall near Alcester and might appeal to anyone in the Midlands area. https://www.classicmotorshows.co.uk/ragley-hall

It is over 2 days on the Sunday and Monday and is a cross section of old, new, kit, modified etc. Complete Kit Car organise the kit car presence on the Monday. It is £10 to get in but if you email Adam Wilkins at CKC, he can pass your details on to Grosvenor Events (the organisers) who will give you a ticket for free. ( I think it is adam@performancepublishing.co.uk )

I have been for the last couple of years and will be going again this year, possibly with a couple of mates from the WSCC (all weather dependant of course!).

If you would like to stand for any position on the committee, nominations can still be made by post until the 15th April, and by email until 22nd April. Details of how to do so are in this thread - http://www.rhocar.org/index.php?showtopic=46243and in the club magazine.

I know some of us are on the Stilton Cheese Run on Sunday 22th, but if anyone intended to go and hasn't booked it's probably too late.

So let's look at the 'HorsePower at the Hall' (now changed to 'Gearheads at the Ground') meet on Sunday 15th at the Newark Showground, starting at 12:00, entry fee £2. See https://www.facebook.com/events/935260486630851/. Regular attendees should note that they will be holding only 3 meets this year.

All weather dependent of course as Summer seems a bit reluctant to come. I'll update this post during the last few days.

April Meet will be this Sunday the 8th at Haynes Motor Museum in partnership with the boys & girls from Apple County & Kitnet. For us this is a straight run down the A303 ( 50 miles ) shout if coming along & if you wish to meet somewhere on route. Not too early a start as we plan on arriving at Haynes around 09.00/0930.

Breakfast & natter plus visit the museum if you wish.

Sorry if this is short notice -- have just arrived back from holiday in Scotland.

P.S. Can do an alternative if required --- shorter journey & pub meal maybe?

Names please if attending/maybes.

April's meet is at:

Monk's Bridge Farm
Nobel Way,
Dinnington,
S25 3QB

Coming eastbound from the M1 J31, take a left at the roundabout by the red lion and proceed for nearly 2 miles, and Monk's bridge is the 4th exit off the next roundabout.

A local cricket club holds a Sausage & Cider weekend held on 21/July 2018 which Rhocar has been invited to.

The day includes inflatables for children's entertainment , an all day bar and a band in the evening.

Real ales, ciders and sausages on the BBQ during the evening.

Tickets for the event cost £6 per person which will include a live band and food from the BBQ

I have spoken to the organizers and they have agreed to allow us to pitch tents and caravans on site for £10 on Saturday night, or £15 For the Friday + Saturday night / pitch including the use of the showers and toilets both nights. Sorry no hook up available.

The bar at the cricket club will be open on the Friday evening if we have enough interest.

We attended this event last year and it was great, so we will be camping both nights.

I would be happy to plan a run out Saturday morning if anyone is interested.

I am looking for names and numbers if anyone is interested.
