Northumberland Centre Past Chairman Roll of Honour

CHAIRMAN

George Brooks Tel: 07519 169692

Welcome to the 2020 rally season, Vicky and I are proud and honoured to serve the

Northumberland Centre in my first year as Chair.

I would like to welcome all our existing ralliers and any new families who are considering

attending a rally for the first time, to our 2020 Centre handbook.

This year we have some changes to the committee: we welcome back Darren and Angela

Seccombe, Marion Brennan plus Norman Dixon, and Karen Barham as our new Secretary.

Our immediate past chairman is also staying on the committee this year. I would like to say

a big thank you to Barbara Oxberry for the work she has done for the centre; she is retiring

from the committee after many years as Chair before becoming Secretary. George Appleby

is also retiring this year. I would like to thank everyone for choosing to stand for committee

and wish you all every success in your various roles. This year our committee will be

running without a Vice Chair and we are still short of committee members so if you know

of anyone who may be interested in finding out more, please direct them to me, so that we

can ensure that the centre can go from strength to strength.

Easter 2019 saw a special rally at Corbridge Rugby field, to celebrate the Centre’s 60th

Anniversary. I would like to thank the committee and all volunteers for their hard work

resulting in a very successful event at which our main guest, Vice Chair Janet Moore, from

the Caravan and Motorhome Club, opened the rally.

This year we will have our annual Dinner Dance, an evening of entertainment, at the Grand

Hotel Gosforth Park on the 14th March 2020, to which Vicky and I extend a warm invitation

to you all. Our main guest will be Mr Grenville Chamberlain O.B.E., Chairman of the

Caravan and Motorhome Club. Other events will include our Christmas social event, which

will again be held at Heighley Gate in December 2020.

Much hard work goes into the planning of your annual programme by your rally secretary.

I would like to thank all the families that have volunteered to run rallies for the 2020 season,

without you we all could not enjoy our hobby. However, please do consider running a rally

as last year some venues had to be cancelled due to not having the marshals to run the

event.

I look forward to meeting you all on the rally field or other social events throughout the

coming season.

George Brooks—Chairman

RALLY SECRETARY’S MESSAGE

I would like to thank everyone one for allowing me to continue in my 2nd

year as your Rally Secretary for the coming year.

Last year was a good year for Rallies despite some being cancelled due to

no and low bookings. We as a centre need a good committee but most

important is the marshals and especially our members, on the rally field

to keep the centre going.

We had our 60th celebration and the 2nd Festival of the North, which were

both an excellent success, due to weather being nice and the programme,

with both had a excellent turn out in caravans.

Into 2020 when reading though the hand book you will notice this year,

there is a good extended rally programme for 2020, with a lot of new venues

like Gloucester Lodge Farm which coincides with Blyth Music Festival 2020,

Ambleside Ruby Club at Cumbria, Walkmill and Seaview CAMC site are

some. As well old venues being revisited like Spring Hill Farm with electric

and hardstanding, Border Forest. Also our popular ones Budle Bay, High

Chippburn Farm and Tynedale Ruby Club with a V.E Day themed Rally.

I hope you enjoy this year’s rally programme.

Finally a thank you for all the Marshals as without you the centre would not

work, no marshals, no rallies so you are very important. As for 2020 we are

still looking for Marshal for a venues. If you have never Marshalled before

don’t worry we here to help.

Also if you have any ideas that will improve our Centre, please see one of

our committee members.

If anyone knows of a venue new or old, suitable to hold a rally on, contact

me or any committee member and we will look into it.

Thank you and enjoy 2020 season.

Carl Pearson

Rally Secretary.

Northumberland Centre Rules

Booking for Rallies:

1.1 The booking of limited rallies will only be accepted on or after 1st February with

the correct payment.

1.2 Please book for rallies in reasonable time to allow the marshal to adequately

prepare for you. If possible this should be by the Sunday preceding the rally, but

definitely no later than the Tuesday. Late bookings are an embarrassment to the

marshal.

Money/Payments:

2.1 Any payments by cheque or postal order to the Northumberland Centre for rallies,

socials, Centre equipment, etc. must always be made out to the Centre and NOT

individuals, unless otherwise instructed.

POST DATED CHEQUES ARE NOT ACCEPTED.

2.2 The payment of a rally fee constitutes a donation towards the Centre fund, and

the Centre is under no obligation to provide a plaque. Unbooked or late caravans may

not receive a plaque if the initial supply is exhausted. Do not embarrass any marshal

by asking for a plaque if you have not attended the rally with your caravan.

2.3 Refunds if you were unable to attend a rally should be made via the rally marshal in

the first instance, then afterwards to the Centre Committee. If it is too close to the rally,

then your rally allowance will have been used by the marshal, then a reasonable

donation of £2 would be appreciated to cover administration costs.

Rallies:

3.1 The rally marshals are in complete control of the rally. Any reasonable request by

them must be observed.

3.2 Under certain circumstances it may be necessary to prohibit the use of barbecues.

Open wood fires and burning of wood on barbecues is not allowed.

3.3 Every caravan should carry a fire extinguisher.

3.4 Whenever possible rally routes will be signposted, but members should use the

rally location instructions and a suitable map to assist them. If the rally location has to

be changed to a nearby alternative, suitable signs will be erected. If the rally has to be

cancelled at the last moment, your rally marshal will endeavour to contact you by

telephone. Your booking form should show your telephone number and where you can

be contacted.

3.5 Rallies normally commence at 4.00pm on the first day. The rally marshal is

entitled to refuse admission before this time. Earlier arrival may only be by prior

arrangement with the marshal.

3.6 Reservation of pitches is allowed when it is reasonable and practicable, and that it

is agreeable with the marshal. (the rally marshal’s decision will be final and should be

respected). Where limited electric hook-up is available, this will be on a first booked

first taken basis. Members wishing to be sited together should arrive together.

Members arriving late may be asked to use a ‘Night Pitch’ and join the rally the

following morning.

3.7 The marshal reserves the right to refuse entry to unbooked members where it is

considered against the interests of the rally.

15

Rallies continued:

3.8 A small tent for occupation by children may only be erected with the permission of

the rally marshal. This will be in the space normally occupied by an awning.

3.9 The use of the rally site is a privilege. And it is your responsibility to see that this

privilege is not abused. Please, therefore, observe the Caravan and Country Codes

and uphold the good name of the Club. In particular, undue noise should be avoided

between the hours of 11.00pm and 8.00am.

3.10 Generators should not be used between the hours of 6.00pm and 9.00am except

when the generator is used for the benefit of the rally. Generators should not be left

unattended at any time.

3.11 When for medical reasons, it becomes essential that a generator must be used

outside of the hours stated in the Centre rules (3.10), then application in writing should

be made to the committee two weeks prior to the rally. If approval is given for that rally

the marshal will then be advised accordingly, since it may be necessary for the

caravan/generator to be sited away from other caravans to avoid disturbance.

Separate application should be made for each rally where the generator will need to

be used.

3.12 It should be noted that as rallies are not being held on established sites, it will be

necessary for members to carry toilets. To avoid contamination, TOILETS MUST NOT

BE TAKEN TO THE DRINKING WATER.

3.13 No provision will be made for the disposal of waste other than chemical toilets.

Waste water containers should not be allowed to overflow and should be emptied

along the base of hedges or fences around the perimeter of the field and NOT in the

elsan pit.

3.14 Members must take home with them all dry waste.

3.15 Rallies close one hour after the elsan pit, and the site must be vacated by this time.

Members should not embarrass the marshal by seeking to prolong their stay.

3.16 The sale of goods other than club equipment or collections for charities are strictly

banned at centre events. The only exceptions being in support of the Centre’s annual

charity event.

3.17 In order to avoid embarrassment, collections for rally marshals and other centre

event organisers are forbidden.

3.18 Siting of caravans. Where the rally marshal has set out site pegs, the caravan should

be parked with the offside corner as near to the peg as possible, unless told to do

otherwise. Cars should be parked on the offside of the caravan as close to it as

reasonably possible.

Cars:

4.1 A speed limit of 5mph applies on all rallies, it is your responsibility to ensure any

visitors you have observe the rule. Any driver of any vehicle ignoring this limit will be

instructed to leave the car in the designated car park.

4.2 Learner drivers and unlicensed drivers are not permitted to drive on the rally field.

4.3 No vehicle shall be allowed to drive between caravans on the grounds of safety.

4.4 Drivers of ‘second cars’ and visitors may be asked to leave their vehicles in the car

park provided. The car may be first be driven at 5 mph to the caravan to allow

passengers to alight

16

Please remember we must keep at least a 6 metre space between the facing

sides of caravans and there must be a clear 3 metre space around any outfit

(car, caravan & awning)

Children:

5.1 It is the responsibility of parents, or persons nominated by the parents as suitable,

for the actions of the children under their control on the rally field.

5.2 The playing of quoits, lawn darts and ball games (including swing-ball) and the use

of cycles and skateboards within the vicinity of caravans is prohibited.

5.3 Kites and model aircraft/drones must not be flown on the rally field.

Pets/Animals:

6.1 Dogs and other domestic animals must be kept on a lead not exceeding TWO

METRES at all times whilst on the rally field, and when tethered must remain within

the confines of your pitch. When being exercised beyond the rally field they must be

kept under control and not allowed to roam at will. Whenever possible dogs are to

be exercised off the rally field. It is the owner’s responsibility to make sure they clean

up as soon as possible after them.

Visitors:

7.1 All visitors should report to the rally marshal when they arrive. It is the members’

responsibility to ensure all visitors inform the marshal of their arrival.

Wet Weather:

8.1 Yellow Flag. Should the rally field become so saturated that excessive damage could

be caused by the movement of vehicles, a yellow flag will be flown from the flagpole or

at the gate. Under these circumstances members and visitors may not enter or leave

the field with their cars except with the express permission of the marshal.

17

PREPAID RALLIES

Members occasionally express dismay at the number of prepaid rallies advertised with the

need to pay out so much money at the beginning of the year. Because of the larger fee

involved, Holiday, and Long weekend rallies are always prepaid. Early booking is only

necessary where space is limited at the rally and members wish to be confident of

securing a pitch.

Would members please note the recently introduced Caravan Club ruling whereby we

have to inform the Caravan Club 10 days in advance of a rally the number of ralliers

attending a rally on a Caravan Club site, more information is to be found on the relevant

pages.

Prepaid rallies which are not limited by space do not have to be booked until nearer the

event.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CARAVAN CLUB CENTRE FLAG

AND THE NORTHUMBERLAND CENTRE FLAG

MUST BOTH BE FLOWN AT ALL RALLIES

RALLY DIRECTION SIGNS

To assist our new members and first time ralliers the following information will prove useful.

The various Centres of The Caravan Club endeavour to display signs to guide the ralliers on

their approach to a rally site, each Centre employing its own individual design and

colouring. Care is taken to ensure these signs are discreetly and carefully sited only at road

junctions and other necessary turning points.

The signs used by Northumberland Centre are of a rectangular format, approximately

18 inches long and 4 inches wide, with one end cut to a point indicating the direction to the

site. They are painted BLUE with WHITE “CC” lettering.

On nearing the site a sign is usually displayed giving the warning ‘CARAVANS TURNING 150

YARDS AHEAD’ so slow down ready to turn into the site.

The handbook is kindly printed by:

What is the Northern Region Council? The Northern Region Council of the Caravan and Motorhome Club is built up of

eleven Centres: Northumberland, Cumbria, North Lancashire, South Lancashire, Yorkshire Pennine, South Yorkshire, Durham, North Yorkshire, Yorkshire Dales,

Mid West Yorkshire and East Yorkshire.

The Council holds four meetings a year with a Chairman, Treasurer, Secretary and

Vice Chairman. There are two delegates from each Centre plus one non-centre member which form the committee.

What benefit is the Northern Region Council to us?

The Council has been formed to link the Centres to the Club Head Quarters. The

Council feeds information from the Club to the Centres and vice versa. Any problems or concerns the Centres and their members have, can be aired at the

Council meetings and if they are not solved at that meeting then the Officers of the

Council can take to the Club in order to get a solution, this can then be fed back to

the Centres. The idea is a support mechanism for the Centres and their Members, as

we all know that a problem shared is a problem halved or maybe solved.

Does it work?

Yes it does – many problems in the past have been solved and useful information

with regard to Caravans, towing vehicles and members safety have been passed on.

Yes it does – many Centre Officers have had problems within their Centres and have

brought the problem to the Council and got advice and support from other Centre

Officers until a solution has been found.

Yes it does – by saving Centre Officers and member’s time by bringing things to the

Council for a solution instead of contacting the Club on smaller issues or non-urgent business, this also saves the Club staff time.

Yes it does – it helps to circulate information on events the Centres run, helping to promote throughout other Centres and the Club Magazine.

WHY NOT BE A RALLY MARSHAL IN 2021?

If you enjoy rallying have you ever considered helping to run one?

No financial reward of course, but a great deal of satisfaction at the end of the day.

It is suggested that if you are marshalling for the first time you would be well advised to work with someone with previous experience. For very large or long rallies it is

permissible, but not mandatory, to have three marshals.

If you are interested, please contact the Rally Secretary from the first Saturday in July onwards, when the Rally Programme for 2021 will be available for perusal, to enable

marshals to enlist their services.

No prior claim can be made for a rally other than , as a matter of courtesy, the Centre Chairman, the Teenagers (if required), the new site to the ‘site finder’ and the persons

wishing to marshal a Holiday Weekend or longer rally. The marshalling of any particular rally does not confer any right to that same site in succeeding years.

A meeting will be held in early 2021 to which marshals for that year are invited, at which any problems will be open for discussion.

Your efforts on behalf of the Centre are very much appreciated.

TENTS ON RALLIES OVER 5 DAYS DURATION

The intention in doing so is to allow relatives and friends of Club members, who

camp, but not caravan or motorhome, to accompany them on longer

rallies. This will therefore extend attendance on these rallies to non-members,

Any non-member attending such rallies will continue to be the responsibility of

the Club member who invited them. Therefore, the Club member must also be

attending the rally over the same dates as the non-member. Consequently, it is

recommended that rally bookings by non-member campers should be made by

the Club member. This has now been extended until further notice.

HAVE YOU THOUGHT?

What would happen if one weekend the weather was very wet and the rally marshals

decided not to turn up. You would, to say the least be very disappointed and upset.

HAVE YOU THOUGHT ?

That when you book for a rally and then do not turn up, without telling the rally marshals,

that they to are very disappointed and upset, but even more important they may have

reserved, social tickets and arranged catering.

SPARE A THOUGHT?

For the rally marshals. They are not a paid employee of the club. They do what they do

because in an organisation like ours the voluntary effort put in by such people enables the

rest of us to enjoy our rallying. Without THEM, WE have no hobby.

If you find at the last minute that you cannot make it to a rally, please do everything

possible to let the marshal know and avoid them incurring financial embarrassment.

Thank you.

RULES GOVERNING CENTRES

For those taking part fully in the activities of Centres it is easy to forget that a Centre is essentially a part of the Caravan Club. Its only indeed on this basis that exemption is granted by local authorities which permit the holding of rallies.

Whilst Centres have some freedom to implement certain rules which are considered to be

in the interests of the Centre, they must at the same time adhere strictly to the ‘Rules Governing Centres’, as issued by the Caravan Club and amended from time to time.

A few extracts from the rules pertinent to the Annual General Meeting are

reproduced below for your information. Any member wishing to study the Club Bye-Laws and the Rules Governing Centres may

do so on request to any officer or committee member of the Centre.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Nominations of Officers and Committee

FOR YOUR GUIDANCE Local Centres of the Club are governed by a Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Honorary Treasurer, Honorary Secretary and a Committee consisting of not less than five and not more than eleven members or family members all to be elected annually at the Centre & Annual General Meeting. A qualified auditor should also be appointed by the Annual General Meeting, but should not be a member of the committee.

The above rules were adopted by the Club Council on 1st June, 1957, and as subsequently amended.

If you wish to nominate a fellow member for any of the above offices in the Centre and/or

for committee membership, please complete the nomination form and send it to the Centre Honorary Secretary NOT LATER THAN 14 DAYS PRIOR TO THE MEETING. It is sincerely hoped that members will exercise their privilege and either nominate their fellow members or be prepared to allow their own names to go forward, or both.

As with the Annual Members’ Meeting of the Club, the Chairman, other Officers, and

members of the centre committee continue in office until the end of the Annual General Meeting.

Formal Notices of Motion in Rule 5(d), governing centres denotes, besides the

routine items such as the Chairman s Report, Hon. Treasurer’s Report, Elections, etc., any proposals of a constitutional nature or materially affecting the interests of all members in the Centre.

Any members wishing to put forward a motion, duly seconded that clearly ought to be

treated as principal business as defined above, should make certain of getting it into the hands of the Hon. Secretary not later than 35 days before the Annual General Meeting so that the latter will have time to get it out to all members. Any members raising a matter of principal business, under “Any Other Business” at the Annual General Meeting, can only do so for discussion and not as a motion. If the Chairman decides to allow a show of hands the result will only be taken as guidance or recommendation to the committee.
