** The Colin McRae Subaru Weekender **
 

Well, as you may or may not be aware, I have decided to go the whole hog and organise an event just for the Subaru Community and simply to raise money for the Colin McRae Vision Charity.

I have already listed an event and page on the site 'Facebook' and there will be a website dedicated which will hopefully be up and running shortly.

So, here is what the event is:

Hi to all member’s
I am posting here to inform you all of an event that I am organising for later this year. The event will be over 2 days, Saturday and Sunday and will be a weekend of fundraising.
The event is to be called ‘The Colin McRae Subaru Weekender’ and will be held on the 23rd and 24th July 2011. This will be the first event of its kind for the Subaru Community and as the name suggests, it a Subaru only event.
This is simply an event to raise money for the Colin McRae Vision Charity. ALL profits from this event will be going direct to the charity.

It will be based local to me here in Stunning North Wales and will consist of the following:

Day 1 – Saturday

This will be a Tour around North Wales following a route suggested by us which will take you around some of the great roads and amazing sights in this area. We will be stopping off at various points along the way for some light refreshments and of course photo opportunities. There will be professional photographers and videographers at various points along the way to capture that special moment for you, all of which will be available to purchase if required.
This will be an awesome sight for ourselves and the general public as we pass through some of the towns and villages along the way. We will end up at yet another stunning location which is located 1400ft above sea level. This has some stunning views, as you can imagine. Food and drink facilities are available if you have worked up a thirst along the way.

Day 2 – Sunday

This will be a more laid back day by having a static car show held at a local show ground. We are hoping for a display of various car clubs showing off some stunning looking cars. There will also be a section for the UK Limited Edition Impreza’s

Also attending will be some of Colin McRae’s cars which will be accompanied by the team from the McRae Vision Charity. So you will be able to purchase this special official Colin McRae Merchandise.

Also at the show :

Trade stands
Prizes for various categories from the Tour and the Show
Raffle for Adults (with some exclusive prizes)
Raffle for Children (Subaru related Items)
Activities for Children
Professional Photographers for the event
And generally a grand days viewing of Subaru cars

------------------------------------

**If you wish to have a Club stand then please contact me to reserve your place**


Now, for one of the displays at the event on the Sunday, I will be requiring a nice genuine example of the following UK Limited Edition cars. Preferably either Number 1 of the edition or a mint standard example.

Its a long way off and if my ever dwindling funds return to good health I will try and make this. I really don't get out enough.:lol1:

If we get enough SWS members on board then I don't see why not, but let's get some firm numbers first. :)

Cheers bud. :thumb:

I'll defo be there for the second day, first day depends on work. Can get a sunday off no problem but saturdays are awkward.:thumb:

So we camping then ?????

I PM'd Justin the organiser of the event and he's been back in touch to say that there will be NO charge for a club stand.

Donations to the charity will be entirely at the discretion of the club and individuals, I'm sure that we all appreciate this and will donate appropriately to the event staff collecting on the day. :)

I'm really looking forward to this and I've already made sure that work won't get in the way. ;)

Let's make sure that SWS is well represented. :thumb:

No problem Rich. :)

I'm up for it - a nice evening BBQ or walk down to a local pub with some intoxicating liquid, but I have to warn you I'll be like a bear with a sore head and look like Wurzel Gummidge. :lol1:

Sounds great Ty :) I can get hold of a tent, not sure how big it so will check later with my sis in law - I'll be Aunt Sally LOL
