Le Tour de Yorkshire - What a Weekend!

The club hosted a campsite, social events, catering, a duck race, games and much more over the weekend. All of which was a resounding success.

A huge thank you to all the volunteers who worked countless hours throughout the weekend and the months before to ensure we hosted a fantastic weekend for all. Also a big thank you to all club members who came along to enjoy the weekend.

For those who couldn't make it we had 40 tents, 2 campervans and 120 cars parked on our land. Following the race hundreds of fans flocked over our bridge and into the bar with the kids enjoying the games on the field.

Here's a selection of feedback from the happy campers:

"Please pass on our most sincere thanks for the wonderful welcome, the warm atmosphere, the superb facilities.
Everyone was so helpful from the tall young chap who was on the gate when we arrived to the chap who waved goodbye as we went.
I was so stressed finding a decent site and can't believe how lucky we were.
You made our once in a lifetime trip to see The Tour so much more special."

"Just wanted to drop you a line and say how much we appreciated the clubs efforts over the weekend.
We had a brilliant time and felt so relaxed that our kids could just wander and do their own thing.
Everybody was so helpful/friendly and went out of there way to make sure our stay was a good one and were therefore a credit to the club.
Hope you put on more events in the future!"

We'll post an album of photos when we've collected everyone's best ones.

Thanks again to everyone involved and we look forward to hosting events in the future, starting with the Race Night on the 19th July. Come along, get involved and support your ever-progressing club!
