Show/Event Weekend Timetable

[david white]

We have had several requests to what is happening at COTF this year, so we have created a rough timetable for the weekend.

Please remember this is NOT a massive event, it is a normal Cali meet with a few additions over the weekend to give a bit of variation.

If you have been to one of our meets before you will know that we are a very friendly bunch and you will have made new friends before you have even had time to put your roof up! Saying that some people like to keep themselves to themselves and that is cool, we just want everyone to have a great time. It is the perfect opportunity for any new members to have a nosey around other people vans and pick up some bargains from our traders.

That's great just what I was looking for. It will be my first meeting. No doubt I will have a lot of questions.

Kids disco - fantastic- my three will love it! looks a great weekend line up - looking forward to it again!

 

[jess]

Our beach is due for delivery in the middle of June and this will be our first every meet, we are really looking forward to meeting everyone from the forum and hopefully picking up some tips and tricks as well.

Our 7 year old is really looking forward to the kids disco

See you all in July

 

[flyingQ]

Thank you David for putting our talk in the timetable. Just worth mentioning that it is a gender-even talk, as both my wife and I will be relating our experiences making the ladies' perspective as important as the male view - just as it was over the 7 months on the road!

 

[LisaKent]

Looking forward to hearing this

Here is a copy of the new clubhouse menu. I had the carvery last year
It was fantastic

Nice one Kev, like the idea of the 4 pint jug of beer

 

[david white]

For all the kids coming to Cali's on the Farm ( and possibly the adults ) We will have a snow machine at kids disco time

 

[calikev]

Cool

 

[crazygrandad]

How many numbers this year ?

 

[Martin]

Hi @crazygrandad , at the moment we are up to 89 Booked for the weekend and a handful of day visitors, we are on track for well 100+ again

 

[Nanqueen]

So sad because we have to cancel our booking for Cali's on the farm. Always a danger to try and arrange things early when only carers for my very elderly mum and cannot get help for those dates.
We booked a pitch with electric hook up.
I wrote to David... He suggests I let others know this pitch is available

 

[Nick CB]

Really looking forward to this. After nearly forty years of caravaning and camping, this will be the first (dedicated) meeting we have ever been to.
Be gentle with us!!
Nick & Karen

 

[Martin]

look forward to meeting you both, we had a big rush on bookings this weekend for some reason.

We booked for just Saturday night and hope to arrive around tea time

 

[WooburnCalifornia]

Our Cali has just arrived at the docks but we are going away to Greece for two weeks tomorrow.

We collect our van on the 9th July and will be coming straight to COTF so if you see a pair of numpties in a sand beige Cali trying to put the roof up, that will be us. At least we will have loads of experts on hand if we get stuck

Help appreciated - is there any way to book for COTF without subscribing to Paypal as I wasn't too keen on their T+Cs - under 'choose a way to pay' I am given the choice of either using my Paypal account or creating one. I did try the contact phone numbers without success..... thanks

 

[Martin]

You can pay via bank transfer? How many nights did you want?

 

[wasted]

We are coming for the day on Saturday but our Cali is now not arriving until September, I can see us buying huge amounts of accessories on the weekend but nothing to put them in. It will be great to look round all your vans and see how people set up.

We would like Friday and Saturday nights with a hook up if possible - thanks

 

[Martin]

Hi we have just collected our brand new Beach and really want to come to the COTF next week, we plan to travel down from the Midlands on Friday night after we collect the kids from school but being a Friday night we have no idea of what the traffic will be like. We have not booked yet so we may take a chance and pay on the day in case we decide to come early Saturday morning. Will this be OK? We do not need electric but this will be our first night away in the van
