The last Overland Show of the year.
A chance for members to meet up, swap stories, kick tyres and arrange meets and trips whilst enjoying everything that the show has to offer.

The Adventure Overland Show boasts the largest gathering of expedition vehicles in the UK. Since its launch in 2012 (2013 at Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse) the show has developed into a major national event featuring all forms of alternative travel.

Bringing together those of us who love exploring the great outdoors, the Adventure Overland Show includes two full days of free seminars spanning expedition trucks, 4x4s, adventure bikes and 4x2 campervans presented by the enthusiasts themselves, traders galore including campervan and truck conversion specialists, clubs & their fire-pits, incredible display vehicles, The Map Room presented by Overland Sphere with free travel advice on planning, logistics & preparation, oodles of camping and rocking evening entertainment - it's the biggest and best event of its type in the land!

Ok guys Camping area has been agreed with Tom for OB Group in the newly created Overland Travel Zone.
For those looking to Marshall for free entry here are Tom's rules that have been tightened since last meet as some people in other groups were taking the p@ss
Remember …
Each camping unit (this being a tent, caravan of sleeping in/on the vehicle) requires a Camping Permit @ £20, covering up to 3 nights Fri-Sun.
Each person then requires a a 2-day Adult Admission Ticket @ £30 each, covering Sat & Sun.
Each Marshal therefore will be eligible for a complimentary Camping Permit and a complimentary 2-day Adult Admission Ticket.
If a Marshal’s wife/girlfriend/mate arrives with the Marshal, he/she will have to pay £30 for a 2-day Adult Admission Ticket … unless they also want to be a Marshal, in which case they will also qualify for a complimentary 2-day Adult Admission Ticket.
This way each member can decide for themselves either to volunteer as a Marshal (just one hour per day Sat & Sun), or pay in the normal way. Their choice entirely.
Anyone attending please confirm with names Registration Details and Post Code and I will pass on your details.

For those members attending the Adventure Overland show later this month and wanting to set up on the club site, there is the opportunity to camp and enter the show with a complimentary pass in exchange for one hours marshalling each day (Saturday and Sunday) please read the below and email Tom with the information he needs to facilitate this.

Regarding the Marshals, I will need a list of names/postcodes of those participating in order that they can collect their complimentary passes at Check-in upon arrival at the racecourse.

Trust all this makes sense!

All this is because in the past you will get one genuine Marshal arrive with two or three passengers, and they all expected free tickets, yet they wouldn’t lift a finger all weekend, and had no intention of doing so from the start. In life you’ll always get bad apples, I have to make sure they don’t ruin the whole barrel and spoil it for others!

So … a list of names please. These will corresponded with the Marshal’s rota where your members will chose and enter on the board which Marshal’s task they would like to undertake and on what day & time. This way those who volunteer will know exactly their roles and when they are required.
Phew!

Cheers,

Tom Mc
