Little Easton Manor

Image
Just back from a long early bank holiday weekend at Little Easton Manor in Great Dunmow.  Sometimes you forget just what a picturesque County we live in. There are some exceptional places in Essex such as Finchingfield in the middle and Audley End to the North of the county.  But sometimes there are little Gems that are just tucked away that you would never find unless you explored a little further.  Little Easton Manor is one such place, these buildings and grounds date back to before Roman times and it is a grade 2 listed building.  There are other fascinating buildings and a church to explore all within walking distance. We are very fortunate to have this as an event in our rally calendar, especially as our pitches overlook the wonderful manor lake and across to the Manor House itself.  Our Marshals this weekend where Linda and Bart assisted by Pam. They were extremely welcoming and worked hard to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. Saturday morning we were tre...

  A Wonka New Year 29th December—2nd January 2025 Trinity Park—Suffolk Show Ground Never attended this teams New Year event? If you have ever organised an event for a club you know just how much work goes into making it happen.   So imagine an average club weekend then quadruple, quintuple or sextuple it.   Somewhere within those figures you will arrive at the 120+ units and 240+ people that attended this event.    It adds a whole new meaning to putting the kettle/urn on for tea or coffee for the attendees! The organisation that goes into to planning such an event is huge.   The work required by the back room office team for just handling bookings, dietary requirements and catering supplies must be immense.   This is not to mention the list of jobs ‘to do’ ranging from liaising with the venue to booking entertainment.   I am not sure a summary of the effort required would ever do justice to their input and work.   It is best just than...

A Dirty Weekend in Weely

Image
 Event 27 : 4th-6th July 2025 For those that were wondering......  A “Dirty Weekend in Weely” was all about the film Dirty Dancing. Those that thought otherwise, you were so wrong!! In a changed venue to that originally advertised, Grange Farm at Thorpe-Le-Soken is a new site for us.  Set well away from any roads with just a train line in the distance, this lovely country side location is comprising of many acres nestled amongst crop growing farm land.  It hosts three separate ‘camping’ areas, these are “Oak”, Cherry Trees” and Brambles.  All were very well maintained with new and very clean toilet and shower blocks.  All pitches as far as I could see had EHU. Although a commercial site, it still has that small feeling and of being secluded in the wonderful Essex countryside. There are some nice little touches of model birds dotted around all three sites.   Its things like this that show the owners care and make the site what it is, charming is a w...

A Medieval New Year

Image
 Trinity Park, Ipswich, Suffolk. 29th December to 2nd January 2026. So where do you start to write a report on this event!   A whirlwind of entertainment and food over 4 days of new year celebrations from which many are still recovering two days later.  With over 130 caravans or motorhomes in attendance anticipation was high as people arrived.   With the efficiency of a well drilled military operation, all were quickly sited and shown where to plug in for electric.   This is a huge showground venue with plenty of room for everyone.   No sooner had you set up it was over to the large event and conference centre to find your table, meet others and enjoy a catch up over some provided light refreshments. It is impossible to put into words the memories from this event and to do it justice.   Here are a just few of the features we all enjoyed. Children's crafting, adult dance lessons, films, cabaret showtime on two nights, diner on t...

Tellwright Cup

Image
D onated by W.C. Tellwright, this trophy is a warded for good caravanning. Judging takes place throughout the season covering  all aspects  of our hobby,  including  supporting our centre. The rules indicate that anyone can win except if you are serving on committee. So this years winners have been waiting in the wings to win for a very long time.    Not only has this couple supported our centre with various committee roles including the responsibility of  Chairman, their wider commitment to CAMC continued when work took them north to Leicester.  There they once again entered into a committee career showing their continued enthusiasm for our hobby. More recently they joined a very select few in becoming Life Members. Their love of the great outdoors and everything we do is obvious as they are still regulars at our many events. Congratulations on winning the Tellwright Cup  : Brian & Sue.

End of Season AGM

Image
When is an AGM not an AGM? When its an End of Season AGM! Event number 1, Pleshey Village Hall, 10th-12th October 2025. The Centre had made a few changes to the format this year, moving the AGM to the Saturday and adding in a full End of Season social. With a busy schedule ahead, your committee worked hard during Saturday morning preparing the hall and prepping the kitchen ready for the evening social. Organising an event like this is a massive task and the work required to make it happen is often overlooked.   Our centre has a great team who take these challenges in their stride and take satisfaction in their achievement of a successful event as their reward. The AGM attracted a large number this year, extra chairs were needed to facilitate them all. The meeting commenced at 2pm, it was of course Kevin's farewell as he completed his three year tenure of the Chair.  Kevin was thanked and presented with his ‘Past Chairmans’ badges and plaque.    Annual reports were re...
