Cancelled Rally – France 1-8 June 2024

Unfortunately, Alan Rogers have been unable to secure a rally site for the rally planned for June 2024 to celebrate the D-Day landing anniversary.
All those who had booked onto the rally have been contacted by the marshals today.
We appreciate that this is disappointing for all involved and we would like to thank Jeff, Michelle, Dave and Lesley for offering to marshal this rally, and for all their hard work liaising with Alan Rogers.
Many thanks to all those members who expressed an interest in the rally for your continued support of the Centre.

Poolsbrook Rally 2024

Poolsbrook Rally 15-17 November 2024
The Caravan and Motorhome Club have advised us that they will be closing the Poolsbrook site in early November 2024, reopening Spring 2025, therefore our rally cannot go ahead as planned on 15-17 November 2024.
The Rally Secretary, with the support of the Committee, is actively seeking a suitable alternative venue.
We will keep you updated.

Rally Plaques Update

Following on from a suggestion made via the Suggestions Form on our Website to the committee regarding plaques, we have agreed to give members and visitors the option to opt in or out of receiving a Rally Plaque.

Due to minimum order quantities and rally pricing currently there is NO Discount if you choose not to receive one.

As most of the 2023 rally programmes have already gone live and bookings made we have only added this option to rallies with no marshals or no current bookings and we can review it after the 2024 rally programme has gone live.

Rally Full Notice

If a rally is showing full and you would like to be added to a waiting list you can now fill out a waiting request form which will be sent to the Rally Secretary. Your details will then be sent to the Rally Marshals and if a place becomes available, you may be contacted to see if you still wish to attend. Just click on the “Rallies” drop down box, go to the rally waiting list and follow the instructions.

Newstead Abbey Raises a Whopping £380 for 2nd Defibrillator

Fabulous weekend at Newstead Abbey Rally! 28 units attended, with visitors from Notts and Leicester Centres. There were also 2 first-time Derbyshire Centre Ralliers.

Friday was all about relaxing on arrival day, Saturday we had a lovely afternoon showing our ‘Crafts’! Saturday Evening we had a quiz and a couple of games of ‘Play your Cards Right’!!! ♥️♣️♦️♠️ and the paper aeroplane competition!!!

A great night was had by all!

The sun never stopped shining the whole weekend!! ☀️☀️☀️

We also have a new recruit Rally Buddy! Luke has come on board and was presented with his Personalised Hoody! Well done Luke!

During the craft afternoon we asked for donations for Beer tasting, jewellery cleaning, cupcake decorating, Friendship Bracelets, Gin tasting etc to put towards our 2nd defibrillator. Barry Thomas also kindly donated 2 of his beautiful Watercolour Paintings for Auction. We also organised a raffle and sold Ice Creams and Ice Lollies too 🍦🍦🍦☀️☀️which went down a treat!

As Marshalls we are absolutely overjoyed to announce that this weekend we raised a whopping £380!!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 some of you may remember we also raised money at the Bamford Rally when we ran the Derbyshire Centre Jacket Potato Bar!

The money raised from both the Bamford and the Newstead rallies totals £460!!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

We are delighted and so very grateful to everyone who supported us and joined in on our fundraising efforts for our 2nd Defibrillator.

New OPEN Derbyshire Centre Rallies Facebook Page.....

Acting on advice from CAMC HQ we have now created an additional OPEN Facebook Page to advertise our rallies.

This is in addition to our CLOSED Group which is just for Derbyshire Members and will continue for those registered to Derbyshire.

The new OPEN Page is for us to advertise our rallies to those who are members of other centres and those who are active members of the CAMC.

Please share this new site with any of your Caravan and Motorhome Club friends but who are not Derbyshire Members.
