Hello to all

Well Spring has Sprung and the sun is shining daffodils are blooming and things are definitely looking brighter.  We have been advised that following the release from the PM on 22nd February, that Club sites are planning to re-open from 12th April but there will be no facilities but they will welcome self-sufficient campers - 'That us'!!  They also tell us that the Executive Committe of our Club are pleased to say that Meets & THS'S can also start from that date, but of course they will operate as 'Pop Up Camp Sites" as they did in 2020.  Of course we appreciate that this is something that could be changed, but there is definitely light at the end of the tunnel.

So now you can definitely think about getting Out & About and planning your holidays for 2021,  but I would remind you all to continue to check on the online Out & About and also with whoever is hosting a meet or THS that you plan to attend to be certain that things have not changed.  We will endeavour to keep our website upto date, so you can always check here as well.

Also following the recent updates on the COVID situation the Sections National AGM which was due to be held on 4th June 2021 at 11.00am at Driffield Showground is now to be a Virtual AGM.  Our 59th National   Meet at Driffield will still take place, but this will be for Camping only at a fee £8.00 per unit per night.  This will be a Booked meet and your Area/Group Secratarys will have the booking form and the new form will be in the Spring Edition of Waggoners Talk .  For the AGM if you wish to take part in this, please can you email our Secretary - Kathy Giles -  kathygiles@mac.com with your name and membership number so that you can be registered for this. The date and time for this will be as published.

 I know this is very different from the normal, but I am sure that like myself you are looking forward to things returning to as near normal as they can be in the not to distant future.  

Keep safe, happy & healthy and I look forward to seeing you Out & About in 2021.
