Surreyscoobies BBQ 2009

[RobVXD]

Hi all,

Some of you may remember, either because you were there and (hopefully) enjoyed yourselves, or were miffed because you missed out, that 2008 saw the first Surreyscoobies Summer BBQ.

I'm pleased to announce that the 2009 BBQ is confirmed, but in a slightly different format.

Please make a note in your diary for Friday 24th July 2009 to Sunday 26th July 2009. Yes, that's right, a 2 nighter! (there is the option to do just the Saturday BBQ)

Venue as before,
Loxwood Sports Association
http://www.loxwoodsports.org.uk/
The Pavillion
Recreation Ground,
Plaistow Road
Loxwood
West Sussex
RH14 0SX

Friday night will be a set meal at the local pub, Saturday lunchtime a canal boat trip and then Saturday evening the BBQ.

More details to follow, but it will be bigger than last year, with invites extended to the following clubs:

Surreyscoobies (obviously)
SES
Hampshire Subaru
Sussexscoobies
Kentscoobies
Street:Modified

There will be FOUR types of tickets available, Paid members whole weekend, Paid members Saturday BBQ, Full price whole weekend and Full price Saturday BBQ. Final pricing to be sorted in the new year, but likely to be:

Full weekend Paid Members £25.00
Full Weekend Normal Price £29.00
Saturday BBQ Paid Members £10.00
Saturday BBQ Normal Price £12.00

Hopefully it will be a good turnout, 2008 we managed 80 people. I'll be disappointed if we don't hit 200 this year!

Pub menu T.B.A. but will be a 3 course set meal.

BBQ menu will be similar to last year:

Butterflied Legs of Lamb
BBQ Pork (maybe a hog roast if we get a big enough turnout)
Spatchcocked Chickens
Butchers Own Beef Burgers
Butchers Own Pork Sausages

Home Made Potato Salad
Hot New Potatoes with Cherry Tomatoes, Rosemary, Garlic and Cayenne Pepper

Salad

French Sticks, Burger and Hotdog buns, Pitta Bread.

Various sauces

In case you missed the photo's from 2008...

Hope to see you there!

OK Guys and Girls lets make sure that SES turns out for this one.
Rob
That needs to be a hell of a pub if its going to have room for possibly 200 people.

[RobVXD]

Don't think (hope! ) the Friday night turnout will be that big....

But the Saturday....

Going to be a cracker mate.

It's already on my calendar.

The whole weekend for me.

[C. J.]

Might get a tow bar
be worth a laugh

[bagpuss22]

This one sounds good to me!

[RobVXD]

Looks like I was wrong... the numbers for Friday are building quickly...

The pub has now been booked. The Landlady has confirmed that they are happy to accomodate 40 to 50 people, so ticket numbers will be limited accordingly, priority being given to those that have already put their name on the list over on Surreyscoobies http://www.surreyscoobies.co.uk/forums/ ... hp?t=27995 The Friday night menu should be finalised at the beginning of March.

If you are not fortunate enough to obtain a full weekend ticket, that will not preclude you from arriving Friday night for the camping, all we will ask for is a donation for the camping fees (tba)

It is anticipated that ticket sales will commence on 1st of May.

Top man Mark, you pursuaded Jo then

[RobVXD]

Folks, this is NEXT MONTH.

Unless we get a bigger uptake on tickets in the next two weeks, we may have to cancel the event! The current 16 tickets sold are no where near enough.

[666subaru]

[herbert]

im 100% going get payed on the 15th of june ill pay then thats 2 of us ?

[666subaru]

come on guys and girls lets get putting names down for this as otherwise it might not happen and it would be such a shame as last year was excellant and the food was to die for so hurry up and put your names down shaz.

[RobVXD]

Quick update.

There are 6 weeks to go to this event. This time last year, we'd sold 40 tickets, this year 16.

Unless we get a higher take up over the next two weeks, we will have to consider cancelling the event and refunding those that have paid.

Tickets will be available at the Surrey meet on Sunday, so bring your wallets!

Come on people, get ya cash out!

This is going to be a spanking event (not literally Cath ) so miss it at your peril.
