Admin Vista Posted December 27, 2013 Admin Report Posted December 27, 2013 Are there any events local to you that allow club stands and you'd like to see an Old Skool Ford Club stand at in 2014? Please post up your suggestions in this thread, I'll start with one we already organise Simply Ford Day at Beaulieu motor museum. May 4th. No club stands allowed, pay on the day permitted Powderham Historic Vehicle Gathering 12th & 13th July 2014. Near Exeter in Devon 2

We can support you in any way necessary with publicity etc. Might do RetroRides gathering in 2014 Not sure what's happening for the RetroRides gathering this year as it's just come out that it's not going to be at Prescott in 2014. Whether we have a stand there will depend on where it's shifted to, there's only so much driving around the country we can do to organise club stands.
Savvi Posted December 30, 2013 Report Posted December 30, 2013 Im happy to help if I can, as you know things are changing for me at present, but I will be looking for something to do to fill the nights I wont be seeing the kids, hoping to do some more shows and meets as well as a few evening meets this year once im sorted out with somewhere to live etc.
SmokeEm Posted December 30, 2013 Report Posted December 30, 2013 ^^^^ Didn't realise you were having Troubles Colin. So sorry to hear that. Hope things get sorted for you soon.

If you want to organise a small stand, let one of the admin know what support you need and start a stand specific thread in the events room.
deltamal Posted January 3, 2014 Report Posted January 3, 2014 Symonds Yat 8th of June, Cortina day - all Ford day always a good show it's at the Monmouthshire show ground this year due to lack of space at the previous venue..
XjamesX Posted January 4, 2014 Report Posted January 4, 2014 Gutted Retro Rides isn't at Prescott anymore. The venue made the show! A classic / old Skool ford show at Prescott would be awesome, tbh I probably prefer the venue to the pod. 1
