Ill try and get one sorted for november time mate for children in need.... They take a lot of work to organise as well as talking to the local authorities as well as police mate.

Scoobysmeet

Yeah iv read on here before what hard work they are. I'm sure Lorraine was involved with last years one, but not sure who else? Have you been on one before?

Ive organised them in the past mate but you need a good 3 months notice to get a good amount of people going so might have to do this as open to different forums mate as well as diffetent cars n clubs

The ESC tunnel run is usually held at the end of October. I'm sure it will be this year too.

No need to invite non Scoobs along.

Its the blue collar esc event each year.

If you have not been before you wont know how big and a buzzing night it is.

I think Lorraine and Jason are the people to organise it as they are well know and long term established members in the ESC.

Im not sure what the delay is this year as much of the old school dont post much but sure it will be a good night if it happens.

Scoobysmeet

Yeah Lorraine was definitely involved last year as I win the raffle 1st prize. Agree with you scott, I'm sure Jason is normally involved as well. I hope it does happen as I have been to 2 now and such a great night. I would offer to help but get married in October so think I will be a bit too busy.

Sorry guys haven't been on here much as on shift work, and yes I have been involved with organising this for a couple of years now with a few of us helping, I'm not sure if I can make this year as not sure if I'll have the Scoob by then or not as trying to move at the movement and the car might have to go for a while but Im more then happy to help out with this again and I will speak to a few of them to see if we can sort this out in time for the normal date we have this

Scoobysmeet

Nice one Jason cheers. What is the normal date?

wongy

Right will either be 20th or 27th or October, will look into this

Scoobysmeet

Can I try n swing to the 27th as I get married on the 19th! Not sure ill get away with spending my 2nd night married on the tunnel run lol. If I can help with anything I will just pm me mate ok.

wongy

Will look into it mate and thanks for the offer will keep it in mind

Scoobysmeet

No probs mate

Essexdon

I'm surprised how long its taken for someone to mention it. In years gone by members have got the ball rolling as early as June/July.

Scoobysmeet

Yeah mate your right. I realised it was getting closer and closer to that time and couldnt believe it hadn't been mentioned.

The night this usually happens is the night the Clocks go back

That would make it the 27th October

Sorry everyone, been on holiday this past week and before that wasn't exactly Mrs Organised for various reasons, but will now get my backside in gear and get this thing up and running for Saturday October 27th

As Jason said he may be scoobless by then and has other things to deal with re moving house; however he will still be sorting out the stickers which is excellent; the price will stay at £5 for those. Not sure yet if will be doing a raffle again this year; was a bit manic trying to sell raffle tickets as well as stickers, also was a major job trying to get anyone to cough up prizes However if anyone has any ideas regarding that then will be pleased to hear em!

Also the charity for this year needs to be decided - would be nice to keep it local but definately won't be doing the Special Care Baby Unit again - although I used to work there and the staff do a fantastic job, the management took several months to acknowledge our donation so it's thumbs down to them So am open to suggestions on that one - ? St Claire's Hospice perhaps, or if not local then Help for Heroes maybe?

Anyway, lots to organise in next 2 months, will be posting route later, at the moment it will be the same one as previous years. If anyone else wants to get involved that would be great Ron? Scott?
