Hi all welcome to "Creatures 3rd Any Spare Change Rally" . 15th - 17th May 2009
This thread will give you the information as to Whats hopefully gonna happen for 2009's Creatures Any Spare Change N.A.B.D fund raiser.
Also it is a very special year for Mrs Creature and I - Our 25th Wedding anniversay So we gonna try and make it extra special.
Many humble thanks to everyone who has again offered there help and support. It has made this event possible, This year theres gonna be some major changes, many that the ralliest won't see and some that you will see.
A very huge thanks goes to Robin, who for the first 2 Any Spare Change Rallies provided Soem of the back line and the PA free of charge. Robin has advised me that he wants a change, and is more than happy to let someone else provide the PA and backline for future events.
So very many thanks from me m8 for all you have done over the last 2 years and we look forward to seeing the light show you have offered us for the 3rd Any Spare Change Rally.

Colin and his staff will again have some excellent Ales on sale and also provide excellent meals. The pub resturant will again be closed off from the rally, but you are more than welcome to go into the pub for a sit down meal. Altho there will be non rally people there, so please be respectful to any non ralliests in the pub.
It is also advisable to book your meal in advance. You can even book your meal before the event if you wish (Phone number above). Colins resturant is very popular and often sells out, so be warned...
A few people said last year that his prices were expensive in the resturant, and they didnt buy the meal - Shame because if the did they would have realised that it is excellent value for money.
Colin has again offered to sponsor the Marquee, Stage & Flooring - and he and I hope everyone supports him in this. Colin and myself dont mind reasonable amounts of alcohol brought onto the CAMPSITE as long as it is consumed at your tents. Once you enter the secured show arena we would ask you to buy your alcohol from the bar. If we are as successful in 2009 as we were in 2008 Hopefully Colin will continue to sponsor the Marquee, Stage & Flooring.
Without his sponsorship of these the event would not go ahead as it costs more to hire than profit we made at 2008's fund raiser.
Onsite food waggon will be providing smaller meals, from normal rally food to a breakfast, veggie stuff, backed potatoes, french sticks, pasta ( On saturday the excellent roast again) ETC if you require more details please ring colin on above phone number.
