CHAIRMAN’S WELCOME TO OUR 2020 BROCHURE Hello everyone I don’t think introductions are necessary, most of you know me I’ve been around for 30 years with the Centre and most of them on committee in various different roles. So a big thank you for allowing me to serve as your Chairman. Moving forward we have an exciting programme waiting for you next year, Denis and his sub- committee have excelled themselves. It is made up of rallies of various sorts from weekend, bank holiday to holiday rallies of various lengths, there are some old ones still there and quite a few of new ones for us all to try, don’t miss out do book early, especially for the popular ones. Let’s not forget the rally marshals who have offered to run these rallies for your enjoyment without them there would be no point of a programme. Following on from last year’s success, the Informal will again be at The “Expanse” Hotel, Bridlington on 21st March 2020 with a 3 day packaged rally held at Thornwick Bay with all its facilities. In 2020 it is East Yorkshire’s 45th Birthday and in June we are holding a “Big Birthday Party” at Driffield Showground there will be lots going on with 2 nights of live entertainment, a barn dance, fun dog show, entertainment for the children. Following on from the Birthday Rally is a follow on and our Centre Sports will be held on the weekend, don’t miss out book early, this a new venue at Wold Newton. We would like to get young ralliers interested in some of the events on rallies so some of the rally marshalls have included events on their rallies like Gary at Wilsthorpe has, to encourage the children to take photos and enter them in the photo competition held at the AGM. If there is something that children would like to do then please let us know, not just the children but the adults, and remember that the best way to be involved is to become a marshal, see Denis or myself for more information. The Six Star Rally next year is 35 years old so another Birthday Party and East Yorkshire Centre are the host centre. It is at a new venue on Wetherby Racecourse mostly hard standing with the Bramhall Room available to us for the duration of the rally and although it is held a little later than we would have wanted we were lucky to get somewhere accommodating. It is on 15th to 18th October. Have a happy caravanning in 2020 and hopefully we will see you on the rally field. Cheers Dave & Kath page 4 www.eastyorkshirecentre.co.uk

2019 CHARITY REPORT &
CHARITY DETAILS FOR 2020
At the 2019 A.G.M. Tim and John presented a cheque to Emily Sherman of Martin House
Children’s Hospice for £2,267.72p. This figure was due to a lot of hard work and generous
donations by East Yorkshire members to which the committee give their sincere thanks.
CENTRE CHARITY 2020
The Centre charity for 2020 will be the Oakwood Dog Rescue. It is a small non-
profit making organisation which is now a Registered Charity.
At Oakwood they are passionate about saving the lives of local dogs. Their dogs
come from a variety of backgrounds cruelty, neglect or unwanted pets. With
dedication, training and hard work many of these dogs are rehabilitated into
loving forever homes where they can feel loved, happy and safe.
There is so much work to be done by the small dedicated team and funds are
always tight so any contribution so that even the smallest donation helps us look
after our dogs.
The centre is open 15 hours a day, 365 days a year to provide training, assistance
and help even when the dogs have been rehomed to prevent them being returned
to rescue.

1. The authority for the conduct of the Rally shall be vested, for the time being, in the Rally Marshal, who
shall be an East Yorkshire Centre Full, Joint or Family Member or a Member of the Youth Group Committee
or his appointed deputy for the time being, who, in the event of a member breaking these rules shall be
authorised to request such member to remove his caravan from the site. The Rally Marshal shall report the
matter immediately to the Centre Committee for such action as shall be deemed necessary.
2. The attendance at the site and/or payment of rally fees shall be an acceptance by the member of these
rules.
3. The Centre Committee reserves the right to refuse the use of the rally site to any member, or to request
any member to remove his caravan without being obliged to give a reason.
4. The receipt by the Rally Marshal of the booking slip and booking fee at least ten days prior to the rally
shall be a prerequisite to the supply of rally plaques and newspapers to the member. No member shall be
entitled to a rally plaque unless he attends the rally for at least one night with his caravan. Slips will not
normally be acknowledged. On Weekend Rallies the Rally Marshal will, if possible, obtain the newspaper of
your choice on Saturday and Sunday. Newspapers to be paid for on arrival at the rally.
5. There is no responsibility by the Club, Centre or Rally Marshal for accidents, damage or loss however
caused.

the exclusive use of the Caravan Club.
FINANCE

cancelled, is not returnable. Unless previously paid, all other fees shall be paid on arrival at the site.
8. Any member who having booked a Rally, fails to attend the Rally without giving advance notice of
non-attendance to the Rally Marshal, or in the event of not being able to contact the Rally Marshal, one
of the Centre Officers, Vice-Chairman or Rally Secretary, will be liable to pay the balance of any Rally fee
due, together with the cost of any newspapers or social tickets as ordered on the booking slip. The Centre
Treasurer will advise members of any amounts due under this rule on receipt of the relevant Rally return,
and payment should be forwarded within 7 days.
SAFETY
9. The speed limit on the site is WALKING PACE (i.e. 5 m.p.h.). Only fully licensed drivers are allowed to
drive vehicles on the site and in no circumstances are driving lessons permitted.

ball games (other than in the designated area), the use of guns, air pistols, catapults and other dangerous
toys and the riding of bicycles on the site is strictly prohibited. Drones are banned from the rally field and
any Centre event unless you have prior agreement from Head Office. This rule reflects the Club's rules for
the use of drones on all Club sites, which are also banned without prior agreement from Head Office. Any
unauthorised use of drones by members on the rally field or Club sites will face disciplinary action.
11. Open fires are not allowed on the rally field unless permitted by the Rally Marshal. Approval for
the use of barbecues, gas lights and gas heaters also rests with the Rally Marshal. Users should not
cause inconvenience to other members and must exercise caution to avoid creating a fire hazard. It is
recommended that a bucket of water is placed within the vicinity of each barbecue whilst in use. Heaters
in Marquees. The Club strongly advises that Centres do not put a gas patio heater under a gazebo or
canvas as they emit high levels of heat, which will naturally rise, and can present a fire hazard. Usually the
tent/marquee fabric is fire resistant, however sustained exposure to heat in close proximity is not advisable.
These burners, typically propane, also produce carbon monoxide and dioxide and require a lot of ventilation.
12. Always carry levelling blocks, a fire extinguisher minimum 1kg Dry Powder or equivalent, an approved
fire blanket, a first-aid kit and sufficient water for immediate needs.
13. When the rally field is too wet a hazard flag will be flown. To avoid unnecessary damage to the field,
members should not remove their cars or caravans without the permission of the Rally Marshal when the
flag is flying.
14. No competitions involving the use of motor vehicles in motion on the site will be permitted.

page 24 www.eastyorkshirecentre.co.ukTREASURER'S MESSAGE
Hello Everyone
Within the committee there is an ever-increasing concern over the non-
attendance at rallies by ralliers who have booked to attend. There seems
to be a growing prevalence of ralliers failing to turn up without having
made any prior contact with the rally marshals. Rally marshals are then
left spending a great deal of time contacting these ralliers by telephone
enquiring as to whether they are coming or not.
Consequently, a lot of marshal’s time is being wasted when this could
be used to the benefit of those ralliers already in attendance. Many and
varied excuses have been given some of which, frankly, are felt to be quite
unbelievable!
On many rallies there are significant financial implications for both rally
marshals and the centre when ralliers fail to turn up and following a review
in circumstances where no prior contact has been made with the marshals
or the committee we will now be looking to seek payment of the full rally fee
from non-attendees. Where the rally fee has been paid in full (in advance)
the centre will now no longer make any refunds.
Clearly there will always be exceptions to the rule and in those occasions
the committee may exercise their discretion upon an appeal by non-
attending ralliers.
Thank you
David Woolley
'The Brochure Secretary'
would like to thank everyone who has assisted with this year's brochure
expecially Kath for all the late nights I have had to put into this. The
proof readers this year are Tim and June Norris and Dennis and Janet
Ratten. I hope there are only a few mistakes and I am sure you will point
them out to me over the next 12 months.
Rally Marshals can help by giving their information to the Rally Secretary
as soon as possible for the following year.
Remember what you as rally marshals put on the form is what goes in
the brochure and also now goes onto the Caravan and Motorhome Club
web site and into the supplement printed with the February edition of the
Club Magazine.
See you on the rally field.

Hi Everyone
We would like to thank everyone who attended and helped out at our

Sports and at Joint Yorkshire Sports where all the children gave it their very
best, and winning, including the tug of war.
Our first sporting event this year is our Centre Sports which will take place
at Wold Newton on the 20th June. Hopefully the sun will be shining and we
will have lots of fun.
Our next sporting event is Joint Yorkshire Sports at Rufforth on the 3rd - 5th
July, it would be nice to see you all on the field .This event is where all six
Yorkshire Centres compete against each other. This year we would like to
win back the trophies and hopefully win more. With your support we could
achieve this.
Our last event is the Six Star Rally at a new venue Wetherby Racecourse
which is on the 15th - 18th October, where there are lots of events to enter
Lawn Darts, Quoits and remote control car racing, kick start, quiz and the
track test. Come along and give it a go. East Yorkshire are the host centre
and it's the Six Star Rally's 35th Birthday so another Birthday Party with live
entertainment in the Bramhall Centre.

along and support your Centre, friends and fellow ralliers at all the events.
We will still need all the help and support that you can give, lets take East
Yorkshire forward and keep winning these trophies.
Looking forward to seeing you all on the rally field, and all the sporting
events. If you have any new ideas, feel free to approach us on the rally

Renewal of Your Centre Registration
With so many of us paying by Direct Debit it is easy to forget that your Centre Registration
has to be renewed each year at the same time as your Club Membership. Your new
membership cards are sent out in the first half of the month in which your Caravan and
Motorhome Club subscription is due i.e. If 30th June is your renewal date your cards will
arrive around the 10th June.
If you pay your annual subscription by continuous credit card and the expiry date of your Club
Membership has passed you will be unable to re-register to the Centre of your choice on the
website.
If you pay your annual subscription by Direct Debit you will be unable to re-register to the
Centre of your choice once you are within 10 days of your Club Membership expiry date.
Therefore to re-register to a Centre outside of the above dates, please call the Contact
Centre on tel 01342 318 813 Monday to Friday between 0845 and 1730.
If you are registering to a Centre for the first time, this can be processed on the website
in the normal way.
You will perhaps be amazed that with around 1000 members registered with the Centre,
how many fail to renew their Centre Registration within the time allowed by the Caravan and
Motorhome Club.
The onus is on you, the members, to renew your Centre Registration which is totally separate
from renewing your Caravan and Motorhome Club Membership.
Renew it or lose it

HAVE YOU BEEN ON A RALLY YET?
IF NOT, THEN READ ON AND GIVE IT A TRY!
It is simply a gathering of Caravan & Motorhome Club members, for a weekend or
holiday, to promote friendship and pursue many pleasures, pastimes and sports, in a
light hearted manner and have some fun along the way. You should never feel obliged to
join in anything which does not interest you.
The Rally Marshal is an ordinary member who has volunteered to organise and
run the Rally. This usually includes arranging the Rally with the landowner, signing the
approach to the Rally field and organising competitions and entertainment for all ages.
This may include a social on the Saturday evening which is a family event with games
for the children and dancing for all ages or a party in the field in Summer with sporting
and fund raising events and walks throughout the season. Arrangements for a water
supply and facilities for the disposal of waste water and toilet emptying will be made.
Newspapers will be ordered in accordance with your instructions on the slip. The Rally
usually starts at 5 pm. unless stated otherwise; this is to allow the Marshal sufficient time
to prepare, so please do not arrive before.
On arrival at the field, drive up to the Rally van where all will be revealed - please
advise the Rally Marshal that this is your first rally. You will then be handed an envelope
containing the Rally programme of activities and simple advice on local amenities,
restrictions and arrangements for waste water etc. Towards the end of the Rally there
is a “round the flag”. This is where the Ralliers gather at the Marshal's van to hear
the results of the competitions, extend thanks to those who make the Rally possible,
particularly the Marshals, welcome visitors and new Ralliers and announce forthcoming
events.
All you need in addition to items you would normally expect to take on a commercial
site, is your own toilet together with a water container to fill it (toilets must never be
taken to the drinking water tap, this is a serious health hazard), a waste bin for dry
waste which you have to take home with you; simple wooden wedges and blocks are
sometimes required for sloping fields. The field is marked out to ensure ample spacing
between caravans and a pleasing appearance. It is intended the front offside corner of
the caravan is on the marker and the owner's car is parked along the offside.
Finally please read the rules which appear on the previous pages and where
necessary, make sure the other members of your family are aware of what is expected of
them.
NEW VENUES & RALLY PROGRAMME FORMATION
Using the current guide lines for rally allocation (see page 31), one sure way of becoming
a Rally Marshal is to find a new venue, you would then have first choice of running it.
From February the Rally programme will be with all Committee Members for anyone
interested to see how the programme is developing, but please remember that until the
Rally programme is ratified by the Committee at the September meeting it is subject
to change. If you have a Rally that you would like on a certain weekend because of a
special event please let me know.
PROBLEMS CONTACTING A RALLY MARSHAL
If for any reason you have dificulty contacting a rally marshal about their rally then
please contact myself Denis Brennan (Rally Secretary), or Ron Warner (Assistant
Rally Secretary) who I am sure will be able to help you.
