Great to have your knowledge of the site and area.
I'll create an area where can share this invaluable knowledge. I send the invites out tomorrow.
If anyone else has knowledge of the area then please do let me know.

The Jeep community at its best

Just planning our food requirements and wondered if there was itinerary, no matter how rough, of events. I’m planning, well Heathers planning,  the food requirements and a rough guide would be useful when  available to plan what we need to bring. On another note I’ve got my CB installed but haven’t actually spoken to anyone yet..  We’re a bit out in the sticks here in west Wales but looking forward to Jeep camp…. Less than 3 weeks away…

***** SUMMER CAMP UPDATE *****

 

Ticket sales end Friday 12th August at midnight!

 

We have 45 pitches taken so far at the campsite 🏕️. Should be a great atmosphere!

 

There is a nice pub at the campsite, The Ancient Briton. Reservations highly recommended. They have a food truck setup as well for the campers outside. There is a Tesco and Asda ten minutes from the campsite with fuel, and a small convenience store a few hundred yards from the campsite.

 

For those new to Walters Arena the entrance is located at pram.mirroring.umbrellas on WhatThreeWords which is a great app for precise locations. Geo coordinates on the first post.

 

Post codes on sat navs will take you to a variety of places other than the actual entrance!

 

Once you get to the entrance you drive .9 of a mile and arrive at a T junction. Turn right then a quick left (signs for T12)

Proceed .5 of a mile and you will arrive at the check in point. 

 

Check in each day will be at 9am and departure from the site will be 4pm. The gate will be locked after this😬

 

Multiple Portaloos will be on site near check in.

 

Bring your own food and drink please as no burger van on site.

 

Groups will be formed each morning for those new to the site.

 

If you are a seasoned expert with Walters proceed as you wish -- and take some friends along😀

 

CB's and or PTT radios are recommended as mobile signal is non existent around much of the site.  

 

Friday green lane groups will meet at the check in point at Walters. Bear in mind someone else has hired the site for Friday so we will stick to the roadway at the previous days check in point to gather and set off in staggered groups. Final timings to be announced.

Just thought I'd share this. For all those avid astronomers, the Perseid meteor shower is currently occurring. Whilst the peak will be 12-13 August, it would still be possible to see multiple meteors during Summer Camp. So I'll be taking advantage of not being in bright London to view this annual phenomenon 🌟

So wish I could come to this, but my son gets exam results on the Thursday, he is not feeling confident about them and all hands on deck may be required for parental support.  Hope everyone has a fantastic time.

Sorry If I'm a bit out of touch so are you saying the environment agency stop all water crossings in the UK when it rains? fords, Strata Florida etc.. in wet weather ?

Pity but I understand. Why not bring him along?

I did think about that, but he wants to pick up results in person from school.

Pick up the results and pop over after - If results are positive, a reason to celebrate, if negative he will get all the support he needs (he can even have a cuddle with a certain therapy dog as I am bringing the gals with me this time)
