The Camping & Caravanning Club
Yorkshire Region
Chairman's
Pitch
As we approach the camping season, I am delighted to advise that there are a number of events planned throughout the year by the wonderful volunteers in our District Associations and Section Groups. With DA weekends, special events and numerous Temporary Holiday Sites, there is sure to be something to interest everybody. Arrangements for this year’s Region Meet are progressing well. This will once again be held at Grange Park, Wetherby from 27th to 30th June. Full details are available elsewhere on this website under ‘Weekend Meets’. Don’t miss out on a great weekend and the early booking discount.
Members are also invited to join EYDA at there Temporary Holiday Site, Sutton on the Forest in May where the Region will be holding their Annual General Meeting. All are welcome to attend and the Club Chairman will also be present to answer questions on behalf of the Club.
I can also confirm that our Region Dinner Dance will be taking place at Drax Power Station on the 9th November, with camping available for up to 3 nights. The Region Council have agreed to a £5 subsidy for this 4-course meal with wine, so why not put on your finery and join us for this season finale.
Happy Camping
David Isbell
I am immensely proud and honoured to be selected as your Chairman for the coming year. My life, for nearly 40 years, has revolved around the Club and in particular the DA’s and Yorkshire Region. Both Pam and I have seen our own children grow up through the youth and now our grandchildren have experienced the great joy of camping with other young people in a safe and enjoyable environment.
We have met many friends along the way and enjoyed many memorable meets, including Yorkshire Region Meet, which this year will once again be held at Grange Park, Wetherby.
My chosen charity for the year will be the National Kidney Federation, run by kidney patients for kidney patients. This is something else I have been associated with for many years and which is close to my family.
Hopefully, I can help, support and guide the Region Council in its endeavours and our many active members throughout the Yorkshire Region. I look forward to the challenge and trust that you will all feel free to contact me at anytime to discuss matters related to camping.
