#1: **CANCELLED** Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue Apr 01, 2014 4:54 am ---- Hello People
It's That time of year again to start talking about this year’s summer camping meet to be held on Aug 1st - 3rd, As many of you know we have now been running the annual camping meet for as long as the site has been running, (nearly)
This meet is open to all new and existing members on the forum. This year we will also be opening the meet to nwcoc.
The location is Buxton as this is roughly the middle of the country as the idea is to maximise the amount of attendants. Its also a great place for photos and has some amazing roads such as the Cat and Fiddle
The plan for the weekend is: Friday > Arrive at the campsite 12pm Onwards, Set up base and relax Later on once everyone has arrived we can head off into town for a evening meal and a few drinks. Sometimes even stay on in town depending on what people want to do, again this is something that we can decide over food at the pub.
Saturday > Wake up, have a look at the cars, get to know everyone if you haven’t already.. You can also choose to head into Buxton itself to see what it has to offer. Towards the early/late afternoon we will start the BBQ. Sunday > Pack the tents away and tidy up after ourselves. We have in previous years then laid the cars out for some photos for the forum and ourselves. Then head off to Morrisions, grab some breakfast and say are farewells.
The campsite that we stay at is called coldspringsfarm who have been more than accommodating over the years.
This year we have a few member's working on idea's to try and make this year better than last.
So lets make this the best Summer camping meet yet..
Prices are as follows:
£5 per person per night
£5 for the BBQ per person.
Total weekend will cost you £15pp
Please note that a confirmed £5 deposit will be asked for around the end of April in order to make things run smoothly and for you to be confirmed on the list.
Should you want to pop down for the Saturday, then Please feel free! More the merrier..
Here are some Previous meets that we have had over the years.

As long as it doesn't clash with FCS and Pugfest I will more than likely go
#4: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue Apr 01, 2014 4:35 pm ---- Brilliant chaps will make sure that the dates selected do not clash, that way we get a few more people,
FCS is 06-08 June
Pugfest is 13 July
So all should be ok on that front.

#6: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: gtidan, Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2014 2:51 am ---- Can anyone just pop along to meet you guys on Sat don't think would do the camping but with having a 18 month old little one
#7: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2014 3:17 am ---- absolutely , People are more than welcome to come along on the Saturday. Maybe even join in the BBQ. It is what ever is most convenient for you lot,
#8: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: LiamMiller, Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2014 6:13 pm ---- If I can't get the weekend off work I'll come for a day for sure,would be good to finally meet you guys to put faces to names. I can't make the most popular date at the minute (1-3 Aug) I'm going away on the 3rd so if I don't make it down it's because of that reason
#9: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: macca1411, Location: Westhoughton, LancashirePosted: Wed Apr 09, 2014 2:34 am ---- Might be worth noting that the 23rd - 25th is Saturday to Monday (Bank Holiday weekend)

#11: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: macca1411, Location: Westhoughton, LancashirePosted: Wed Apr 09, 2014 3:46 am ---- Have to see what date is picked. I've got 4 birthdays and my wedding anniversary on 5 of those weekends. Only the last one is any good for me really, and then I will have to fiddle the rota to make sure I'm off.
#12: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: RyanRussell, Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2014 7:21 am ---- Would happily come make the trip down from Scotland, just get me the dates asap so a can request a week off work

Im not bothered, just as long as a know a bit in advance
#16: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue May 06, 2014 9:13 am ---- Weekly bump. Looking like a very bleak turnout. Is there any more interest?
Its a wonderful weekend to chill-out, look at cars and see what's been done and be able to have a couple of beers all at the same time.
#17: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: LNHalton, Posted: Wed May 07, 2014 4:48 am ---- I'm in if it's after 11th Aug
#18: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Mon May 12, 2014 2:40 pm ---- Currently the event looks like it will be happening on the Aug 1st - 3rd.
If anyone is interested Get voting..
#19: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: LNHalton, Posted: Tue May 13, 2014 2:03 pm ---- If it carries on the way it is with the voting I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it for the entire weekend, work commitments and I can't book days off very easily in my job!
BUT, saying that, coming down on the Saturday I can do.. As this site is only 40 mins from my house
In past years that is what some people have done. So feel free to do that.
#20: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: SamNI96, Posted: Sun May 18, 2014 7:48 pm ---- This looks so cool. I'd love to go but with me being in Northern Ireland it's not really cost effective sadly
#21: Re: **Summer Camping Meet 2014 ** Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue May 27, 2014 3:40 am ---- Voting will close friday get voting people.
#22: Re: Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue Jun 03, 2014 4:07 am ---- Weekend dat chosen as Aug 1st - 3rd.
It is of importance that people who want to come get there names down as unless there are more people involved then this could end up being a failed meet.
#23: Re: Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: macca1411, Location: Westhoughton, LancashirePosted: Tue Jun 03, 2014 4:35 am ---- Bank Holiday weekend. What would be the chances of adding an extra night for those who wanted to leave on the Monday?
#24: Re: Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue Jun 03, 2014 4:37 am ---- If enough interest is show an extra night can be added by all means, However I wont be able to stay that long as off to the races on the sunday.
#25: Re: Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Thu Jun 05, 2014 3:20 am ---- Anymore interest now that a date has been chosen?
#26: Re: Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: paulspug, Location: Spalding lincolnshirePosted: Sun Jun 08, 2014 11:49 am ---- put me an missis up for it

#29: Re: Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: ewroberts, Location: BristolPosted: Tue Jun 24, 2014 3:39 pm ---- New to the site, new to having a pug (2000 pug 206 GTI), Would like to attend, it looks like a bit of fun.
I am in the process of trying to get tickets for Pugfest. Anyone else going?
#30: Re: Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Wed Jun 25, 2014 3:27 pm ---- Bump
Yes please join us, you might get a few ideas on what you can do to the 206.
Personally I'm not going purest but I'm sure there are a few members on here that will.
#31: Re: Summer Camping Meet 2014 Aug 1st - 3rd Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Wed Jul 02, 2014 7:18 am ---- Unless we drum up some more interest in this meet over the next 5 days or so, it will inevitable be cancelled.
This will be a shame as it has been running consecutively for over 7 years..
