Chairman's Fairwell Rally
Rose Farm,
Belton,
Gt Yarmouth
September 2008
A Party on the Rally
Field...
The Rose Farm Rally, what can we say about
such a perfect weekend, a lovely setting for
the Chairman's farewell party.
Sue and Sheila worked very hard and put on a
really lovely buffet, complete with a
special cake with David and Tracy's photo on
it.
There was a real "garden party" atmosphere
for the entire afternoon, the marshals
donated wine to help with the celebration of
David and Tracy's penultimate rally as
Centre Chairman and Lady.
At flagpole, David was presented with a
stained glass plaque of the Suffolk Centre
horse, beautifully done by Jim Williamson.
Derek and Sheena Pannell had arrived to
surprise David, and presented Tracey with a
lovely bouquet.
As David has made very clear over the last
three years, he could not have managed
without Tracy, there was not a dry eye on
the rally field. But this was a refection of
our appreciation and thanks to Dave and
Tracy for all their hard work. They will be
missed, but I am sure you will see them on
the rally field soon as "Past Chairman" and
they intend to continue being rally marshals
too.

Rally Marshals may not have fire extinguishers available on the

From October 2009 it will be a Suffolk Centre

It is recommend that you have a fire extinguisher and fire
blanket in your caravan in case of emergency and regularly check
the batteries in your smoke alarm.
