Scottish Region - 2011 Proposals

[derekosb]

Hi Guys.

Firstly my apologies I have been a bit slow off the mark this year. So much that Yella Fella was asking what the plans are for 2011?

See here for Glenn's initial post.

Anyway, as I mentioned on the above post the plans are just being set out and I am happy to receive any suggestions from the members.

So far the calendar is shaping up along these lines:

Jan 11
Feb 11 - 1st Meet (TBC - possible return to Cambo?)
Mar 11 - 6th March: 1st National Meet
Apr 11 - 9th & 10th April - Oban Weekend
May 11 - 29th May - SARR (Falkirk Wheel)
Jun 11
Jul 11 - Possible Gretna meet with Bluejon's region (tbc)
Aug 11
Sep 11 - 18th Sept: 2nd National Meet
Sep 11 - 25th Sept Monster Machines - East Fortune Airfield
Oct 11
Nov 11 - Sunday 20th November - Loch Lomond Shores(Xmas Lights)
Dec 11

I must stress these are only outline plans and I will need to discuss with Bluejon his plans regarding Gretna.

I would welcome any suggestions the members may have.

One idea was for a few smaller less formal meets, more in the way of "runs". For example a "run" to somewhere like Largs or Troon for fish and chips and a natter. All ideas welcome and thanks to Glenn for kicking 2011 off.

With the idea of the 1st meet at the end of February I would be keen on members' opinions on a return to Cambo (see here for last year's meet)

The Snowdrop Festival is on again and runs until 13th March. I would suggest the Sunday 27th February as that is the weekend they have the Family Drop In workshops running again.

All opinions welcome.

Derek
