Summer 2008 Charity Run

[Paul P1]

Hi guys and Gals

just a quick update on how this event is going.

We have a venue in place Called The Crealock Arms.

http://www.crealockarms.com/

It is situated just outside Bideford in North Devon. The owner possibly has access to a field for additional parking if needed also I'm trying to organise camping there too.
.
Devon air ambulance have been contacted and are pleased that we are supporting them and will provide the helicopter on the day (providing they don't have any callouts).

The Milky way has been contacted with a view to visiting there for an hour or so during the day to collect.

http://www.themilkyway.co.uk/

The Local Bobbies have also been contacted.
As have Torridge District Council to obtain permission to stop along the quay in Bideford

Once we have the necessary permissions Derek and I will be planning out a route to make sure that we get to as many places as possible in the time available.

At this time we don't know how many people will be attending I know it's still a little way off yet but please let me know here if you can

Cheers

Paul

Please Can I have names for this event now please so we can get an idea of numbers

***UPDATE******UPDATE******UPDATE******UPDATE***** *UPDATE******UPDATE******UPDATE******UPDATE***
I have spoken to the Milky way today and they are happy for us to spend a couple of hours at the venue collecting funds on the day they are also happy for us to advertise the fact we will be there on the day for a couple of weeks in advance also they have donated a family ticket to the raffle

We will be at the milky way for about 2 hours so would any members like to actually go into the venue with their children to have a go on the rides there is a group discount price if people are interested unfortunately the owner won't let us in for free (I DID TRY) so please let me know via a PM if you would like to as i need to get back to ASAP

I have ordered 20 more stickers for people who want them please PM me and we'll get that sorted.

I'm still to speak to the Devon and Cornwall Police about marshalling on the day I will post a response as soon as I have any details

With regards to camping would those who want to be ok with a small charge to cover the costs of the amenities?

PRESS RELEASE

South West Scooby Run aids Devon’s Air Ambulances<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
At first glance you may think this event has something to do with everyone’s favorite cartoon hound, but in fact it relates to a much more highly powered vehicle!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
The South West Scoobies Club was set up by and for Subaru car owners and enthusiasts. They have chosen to support the trust as their charity of the year and have organised the North Devon Scooby Run.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
The Run starts at 9am on Saturday 9^th August 2008 from the Barnstaple Leisure Centre, visiting Ilfracombe, Combe Martin, heading to South Molton, then on to <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Torrington</st1:place></st1:city>, before heading to Bideford, with the final stop being the Milky Way. Once done, they will be making for the Crealock Arms at Littleham for food and entertainment.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Paul Davis-Chaffey, spokesman and Club Charity Fundraiser says “We decided to support the charity because as enthusiasts of powerful cars, we fully appreciate this is an essential service in our county, especially due to the rural nature. We wanted to support a charity which is there for anyone who should need it, and the Air Ambulance fitted perfectly. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
He added “We would like to Thank Alan Jefferys of EngineTuner.co.uk. The Milky Way, the car clubs across the South west who are participating in the event. Mr. Sticker of <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Plymouth</st1:place></st1:city>, Mel & Mark of Torpedo Mad, Sean of devoncarshows.co.uk. And finally any parties interested in becoming involved please email derek@ndcr.co.uk or paul@ndcr.co.uk <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Caroline Creer, Fundraising Director for the Devon Air Ambulance Trust said “We would like to thank the organizing committee for all their hard work in putting together this Run and hope everyone has a fantastic time.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
She added “The service is totally independent of Government funding so community events such as this are absolutely vital in order to ensure the Devon’s two Air Ambulances will continue to be there for everyone who lives, works or holidays in <st1:place w:st="on">Devon</st1:place>. With a new generation aircraft arriving this autumn, bought by the charity, it’s even more important to secure the funding we need to maintain the service, and indeed increases, in order to cover rising costs such as fuel.”<o:p></o:p>

Paul

[Kris]

i would be up for it

[Scoobywrc]

And if u r that means I am too!!!!! ; )

[Paul P1]

Thanks would either of you be interested in helping to organise

[Broxi]

Me & Sally + Kids definatly

[Scoobywrc]

Thanks would either of you be interested in helping to organise

Well being as we said we would organise a club day and this sounds pretty much like the same kind of thing I am sure we will help out :smile:

[Paul P1]

Thank you so much

[Kris]

yeh that wouldnt be a problem if u need any help

[Scoobywrc]

No worries - we were thinking of organising the club day in August anyway so we will put our efforts into this instead : )

[Mr H]

count us lot in what charity is it going to be for ? if you want to get us a better name and image round here may i suggest childrens hospice south west or the hospice for people with terminal illness in barnstaple

[Broxi]

Children's Hospice South West?

Two words to that Mr H...

look at the last time we went to them we were going to give to the kids, at XMAS and they threw it back in our faces....after they seen the SIDC Video Jacqui asked me to show them of another charity event.

Me and Sally both think it should go to the Air Ambulance... as we all drive, it is something one of us may need to use. Although we all hope none of us ever do.

[Paul P1]

I agree with you on that Derek and hopefully most other people will too as most area's have an air ambulance and they are all self funding so i hope that everyone else agrees your thoughts please

[gazza1977]

yep throw me in the pot for this one to guys,

[Paul P1]

Have put a post on P1 owners site now

[Torpedo]

Ok as lots of birthdays My Marks and Sticks to name a few in Aug i think this would be a great birthday weekend away so put us down. Would be good around the 1st or 2nd weekend in aug.:smile:


I also think the air ambulance is a great charity to donate to and maybe we could do a raffle at the barby We will put a prize or two forward ; )


And yes of course we will help out PM me what you need doing and we will do our best! :party0040:


Mel & Mark :smile:

[Paul P1]

Thanks Mel & Mark I'll let you know what I need the first thing that needs doing is other clubs across the country so if we could get post's on their sites that would be great

[Sticks]

[Paul P1]

[Torpedo]

Done this but need more info !



http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w180/scoobysticks/CHARITY1.jpg

[Torpedo]

Is this just for scoobies?

:smile::wink:


Mel x

[Paul P1]

Personally i think that anyone can join in the more the merrier thats what i say

[Torpedo]

[Paul P1]

[quote=Torpedo;191449]Done this but need more info !



http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w180/scoobysticks/CHARITY1.jpg


How about the Saturday and or Sunday of 16/17 of august

BBQ will be held at pack o cards (as we all loved it there i think this is a good choice)

would we prefer a live band or a disco (more for the children)???

We will cruise through Barnstaple, Braunton, Ilfracombe, Combe Martin, Bideford, Instow, South Molton and lots of surrounding villages

[Sticks]

Lets not go there i think everyone should be able to join in so i might even bring the golf


This is for charity after all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx



:smile::wink:


Mel x

Not meaning me :biggrin: I will be there of course

But i was going to ask UC

[Scoobywrc]

Hi

16/17 August is my youngest's birthday weekend so this would not be a good one for me ; )

[Paul P1]

Or the other choice would be the weekend before

[Scoobywrc]

weekend before would be better for me - but obviously depends on the majority!!!! ; )

[Torpedo]

pending date



http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w180/scoobysticks/CHARITY1.jpg

[Scoobywrc]

; )

[Paul P1]

excellent news so it looks set to be on the 9th & or 10th of august are we all agreed on that date

[Paul P1]

do we want to do both days or just one


is there any suggestions for the day

ie
entertainment,
route to take on the cruise,
BBQ or Pub Meal?

I was thinking that Derek and i could plan out the route we will take and then get it printed out highlight the roads we'll be going and then hand out to everyone what do you think

[Torpedo]

i would have thought one day and one night then thoughs that want to go out for lunch sunday could do ;)

[Scoobywrc]

excellent news so it looks set to be on the 9th & or 10th of august are we all agreed on that date

yes please:wink:

[Scoobywrc]

both suggestions for the days out sound great - b good if we do something like pub lunch on the sunday cos thats a bonus for me sleeping in a tent!!!! ; )

[Paul P1]

How does this sound then we do the run on the saturday and the entertainment in the evening then those that are still around can do lunch at the same pub as the food is fantastic but I will need an idea of how many for the sunday lunch to get it booked!!!

[Paul P1]

Have we had any response from other clubs yet?

I've got some interest from the P1 owners site

[Torpedo]

This can also be posted on threads on other forums xxxxxxxxxxxx

[Torpedo]

[Torpedo]

Talking with mark this morning and we think its a bit early for some people yet so its just a case of keeping the threads to the top as much as possible ; )

But i would say you will get all the people that went to the north devon meet and plenty more so will be a good turn out ; )

[Paul P1]

Thanks Mel i'm starting to get rather excited about this one it should be a fantastic weekend

[Scoobywrc]

anyone posted on SIDC????

[Torpedo]

[moff1888]

[Sammi]

[Sticks]

[Sammi]

Thanks mark :)

[Sammi]

done :)

[Sticks]

Thanks Sammi :wink:

[gazza1977]

hi guys not been around for a few days however what can i say, it all seems to be coming along great it sounds like it will be a fantastic weekend, so i am in all the way, i think maps of the planned route is a great idea and made avail to everyone coming, but rock on it sounds fab

[Scoobytaxi]

Maybe we could get Lantern FM down.
Last year the mini club had a record attempt for the most ammount of minis in one place.
They had Bideford Quay car park next to Taxi Rank cordoned off and had collection buckets.
It's just a thought.:smile:

[Mr H]

now that is a bang on idea we could do a proper scooby run like the minis do oh and put it in the gazzete and journal as well as lantern fm

[Scoobytaxi]

Maybe we could have an hour at The Milkyway.
Milkyway + August + Holiday Makers = Lots of donations.:cool:
They've got a field by the car park there that they use for car boots.

[Paul P1]

Some fantastic ideas there guys I do like the milky way idea that is spot on what are other peoples thoughts on it I do intend to get local radio and papers involved in some way also local TV if posible I think we should charge £5 per car how does everyone feel about that?????

[Torpedo]

Think £5.00 per car is a fare charge ; )

[Kris]

can we do a treasure hunt????? as part of the charity run?

[Kris]

can you advise camping/accomadation venues :-)

i have a tent we will stay in somewhere

[Kris]

FAO The Matrix

how about a late night poker night on the night everyone is stopping over??

[Paul P1]

Perhaps we could do the treasure hunt on the sunday as was trying to get the charity run as one long procession

I will look into camp sites for you and get back to you but i think the poker night is a good idea

thanks for the feedback kris

[Kris]

cheers paul, will look forward to see what u come back with

or we could have some crazy beach games and bbq on the sunday

[Sammi]

FAO The Matrix

how about a late night poker night on the night everyone is stopping over??

ummmm poker !!!!:wink:

[Paul P1]

[Kris]

Hi guys and Gals

just a quick update on how this event is going.

We have a venue in place Called The Crealock Arms.

http://www.crealockarms.com/

It is situated just outside Bideford in North Devon. The owner possibly has access to a field for additional parking if needed also I'm trying to organise camping there too.
.
Devon air ambulance have been contacted and are pleased that we are supporting them and will provide the helicopter on the day (providing they don't have any callouts).

The Milky way has been contacted with a view to visiting there for an hour or so during the day to collect.

http://www.themilkyway.co.uk/

The Local Bobbies have also been contacted.
As have Torridge District Council to obtain permission to stop along the quay in Bideford

Once we have the neccesary permissions Derek and I will be planning out a route to make sure that we get to as many places as possible in the time available.

At this time we don't know how many people will be attending I know it's still a little way off yet but please let me know here if you can

[Scoobytaxi]

A good choice. Littleham is a nice, safe, quiet village and The Crealock is situated about 50 yards down a lane off the roadside. Meaning we could be a bit noisy without upsetting the locals.
The owner Rick is a nice bloke and should do us well.:smile:
Rick used to be the head chef at Tantons in Bideford so the foods excellent aswell:wink:

[Paul P1]

Am I counting you in on this one then???

[Scoobytaxi]

Yes if the Scoob hasn't sold by then. What's the exact dates, coz could put off the sale of scoob til afterwards:wink:

[Paul P1]

The Date is 9th of august if you don't have the scoob you can still join in any cars are welcome the more the merrier

I have also contacted the local police and all is ok with them

have a few other clubs getting involved now so the numbers are gradually growing so please book this day off work and come down and join us for the fun and festivities

PAUL

Hey Paul,

Like my Japfest parking pass etc.........my little boy got hold of them. So had to bin them. lol

I'm looking into it mate. I've sent you a PM.

Going to have a word with some of the Surrey boys and gals. If so all good.

Who wants to share a tent with a Gimp?

Anyone thought of contacting local Radio ? Sounds like the sort of thing Koko (GWR, Orchard FM etc...) would cover - get a Black Thunder or 2 to join in for a bit....?

Camping sounds a great idea can have a few :biggrin: is Bobs dragon doing the cooking :biggrin:

I think the pub is doing a BBQ, but not sure. Lets give Dragon a rest and let her sit in the pub with her half a bitter...:smile:

[victim]

half bitter, half voddie :lol:

Seriously though, good to give the girls a break and have someone else do the cooking for a change.....

[bob]

half bitter, half voddie :lol:

Seriously though, good to give the girls a break and have someone else do the cooking for a change.....

If SL is there I expect it will be the voddie...but dragon only drinks bitter as a rule. Tis all I can afford...:redface:

[Paul P1]

As far as I'm aware the pub will be organising the food so Dragon can have a rest and a Full pint on me

[The Gimp]

Tent or Box?:wink::biggrin:

For one night only.........:wink:


Depending on work I am there.

Mel x

[Sticks]

Just wanted to know how do you all feel about Karaoke for the evening?

That will be funny, do it Paul :biggrin:

Oh and can you put may mate Jay and his girlfriend claire down and they said they will camp too.

I am planning to get a bit p***ed too as it is my birthday the saturday :party0040: :party0040:

[Sticks]

Does this have to be Jap cars any more ?

If not then my mate will come, Chris and Michelle (camping)


And my girlfriend is going now, Liza.

[Broxi]

It does not need to be Jap cars Mark...

It's a charity event after all.

Derek

[Sticks]

Fantastic, then my mate will be there and he don't have to buy a new car because he wanted to do the run lol :biggrin:

[Paul P1]

***update******update******update******update***** *update******update******update******update******u pdate***

I have recieved a phone call from Devon Air Ambulance with reference to the Charity run

They will be doing a massive press release covering all local and regional newspapers, Local radio stations covering the area, Tv advertising has been asked for too & coverage in car magazines hence the request for names of them.

They will also be supplying us a few more collecting tins and buckets for Devon, performance and modified show.

I will also be talking to local radio station Lantern FM and asking them to attend on the day to lend their support.

It has been suggested to me that we get marshalls to stop traffic on roundabouts so that we all stay together in convoy. Do we have any volunteers for this (would be alot easier if they were on motorbikes)

Thanks

Paul

***update******update******update******update***** *update******update******update******update******u pdate***

[Sticks]

WOW, that is great news Paul. Well done mate :sign0191: :sign0191:

[chris]

[J5scoob]

Well done mate sounds like this is going to be a good one cant WAIT !!

[Somerset Scooby]

Nice one Paul, Well done :sign0191:

I've obviously arranged my holidays for the wrong week :redface:

[Torpedo]

:sign0191::sign0191: nice one Paul and Derek :sign0191::sign0191:



:wink:

[RB WRX]

Well done Paul,sounds like its all coming together!

[Jason STI]

i dunno why im suggesting or offering this, but i got a motorbike..........would be a big drive down as i cant go on motorway its only a 125 but my wife could drive the scoobi i suppose, shame i aint got a trailer n tow bar lol

will have to think logistically

[Paul P1]

I'll leave that up to you mate but yes that would be ideal if you could

[Jason STI]

ok mate ill have a chat to the wife and see what she says, even if im the only one would be better as i could stop traffic to the right i suppose, how would the police view this?? we wont be going near any motorways tho?

[bob]

I don't think the police will be very happy with this...:redface:

[Paul P1]

no we won't be near any motorways and i will be visiting the duty inspector at barnstaple staion to discuss the whole thing anyway before the event i will also ask about police escort but i doubt they'll do that

[Jason STI]

shud they not be made aware of the route we are taking?

seeing as convoys without and escort are illegal aint they?

[Paul P1]

you're probably right bob but i'm going to try anyway

[Jason STI]

sorry posted before seeing yours mate

ok well keep me informed

[Paul P1]

will do mate thanks all the same

[carlosT2000]

count me in for the charity run, can you let me know if thers any kind of posters or anything available so i can get the locals to put there names down as sponsers etc..
thanks.

[victim]

Boogar - have the bike and would love to marshall, but want to drive the car too :sad-smiley-046:

Wife won't drive the Scoob, unless I can have a volunteer from the audience ? Anyone from Bristol/Gloucs area want to drive my car for this event ? Otherwise, it'll have to stay at home and someone else will have to take my camping gear.....

Hmmm.. what to do......

Best wait on Paul's feedback from D&C Constabulary.

[Paul P1]

Thread now updated please read first post as I need information returned

Thanks

Paul

[Sticks]

Take Liza off mate, on my own :wink:

[elowarr]

[harty6972]

tina

[jd5217]

just had long conversation on phone about this event.

count myself & vix in.

[Paul P1]

Nice talking to you today Steve

thanks for your suggestion regarding the petrol stations

For those of you who will only run your cars on V-Power the nearest staion to us in North Devon is situated at Tiverton Services J27 of the M5 just before you join the A361 North devon Link road. So my suggestion to those of you might be that you could fill up there before you come the rest of the way as the run will be about 75 miles roughly. Once Derek and I have got the exact route we will post up the exact mileage for you all.

Paul

[jd5217]

any meth tankers available???? pmsl

[Paul P1]

We'll have to see if we can hire you one just for you mate and get him to tag along at the back LOL

[jd5217]

:lol::lol::lol:

[Paul P1]

Names added now steve thanks again for your suggestion

[jd5217]

no problems, anything to help.

[Paul P1]

Cheers matey

[jd5217]

have got the thread on sidc made a sticky

[Paul P1]

Thanks Mate you're a star is there much interest on there?

[jd5217]

a few, but will push this.

[elowarr]

Will those who are camping be permited to leave thier cars in the camping field?

[Paul P1]

I have no problem with that but will speak with the pub landlord and get back to you

[Paul P1]

I have updated the first post with a copy of the press release that will be going out across the region please give me your thoughts on it and feedback any changes that might be needed

Many Thanks

Paul

[harty6972]

[RB WRX]

Nice one Paul,Its coming together nicely,Iam sure it will be a great event!

[Paul P1]

thanks mate it's now getting huge

[Sticks]

Paul, Is the karaoke going to be in the pub it's self, just wondering on room wise lol :redface:

[victim]

Great update Paul.

btw, one issue that was raised in discussion over the w/e (apologies in advance if this has already been addressed) was that those not local to N Devon will be trying to get to Barnstaple early on a Saturday in the middle of the Holiday season. This usually sees the M5 and Link Road chocker ! Any thoughts about folks from ASW maybe coming down on Friday night so they don't get caught in Grockle jams ? Extra night's camping somewhere, perhaps ?
(I'm alright Jack, I can stay with the In-laws in Tivvy :biggrin: )

[Sammi]

nice one paul! can u put myself and shiftus down as camping too! :)

[Scoobywrc]

woulsd you be ok with paying £10 for the privilege

[Mrs harty6972]

is that for 1 nights camping or 2? is it just for the loo or for the camping fees aswell cheers chuck

[J5scoob]

Any help you need you no were im at m8 :wee_hee:

[Paul P1]

the ten pound charge was set to cover the cost of the toilet when i set that price we only had 6 campers now we have more the price would be less unless you want to put the extra towards the charity :wink: :wink:

[Paul P1]

Here it the first official press article for the event to be found in the North devon gazette website

[elowarr]

At the moment there are 15 members some with wives/g,friends and kids camping some for 2 nights, is one thunderbox :sick0019: going to be enough?? and there maybe more yet especially if we have good weather.

Also what time can we turn up on the friday cos I'm taking a half day off work so as not to get caught up in any traffic.

[Paul P1]

Good point mate I'll ring and enquire as to the availability of a 2nd kasi

I am asking all people that camp if they are happy to pay a ten pound charge to cover the cost of the toilet if theres any left it will go into the charity fund

is this ok
