Renault Owners Club Diamond Anniversary Event

To celebrate the Renault Owners Club’s 60th Anniversary, we are holding a weekend event at Bewl Water on the Kent Sussex borders on the 21st and 22nd of July. We have been here before with our regional rallies and they have been very popular. As usual for our anniversary events this is open to anyone who wishes to come
Bewl Water is the largest water supply reservoir in the South East of England in the heart of the Kent countryside. There are on-site catering facilities and a range of activities ranging from boat trips on the lake to walking and mountain bike riding. It provides an excellent base from which to visit a wide range of places of interest and full details will be provided either by links on our website or as hard copy. For the weekend, information and directions will be available.
You can camp on-site or stay in local bed and breakfast or hotel accommodation and if you are only able to come for a day you will be equally welcome.
The itinerary is to arrive at Bewl Water on the afternoon/early evening of Friday 20th July 2012 where an evening meal will be available at the on-site restaurant if numbers permit. There will also be a barbeque on Saturday night if there is the demand.
On Saturday 21st July 2012 there will be a choice of drives taking in a place or places of interest and stopping at a suitable venue for lunch. In the evening there will be a catering at Bewl Water.
On the morning of Sunday there will be the option of another excursion or excursions with the afternoon giving time to relax with other Renault enthusiasts or relax. There will also be onsite activities including the Autojumble at 10AM (so you don't have to sleep with your purchases)
If you wish to display your club there, please let us know and send us a logo to include on the page if you would like us to display one (linked to your site). All we ask is that you have appropriate insurance for your activities. We can group your members together if you wish. If you fancy doing something special (rolling road, tuning session, strip and rebuild) talk to us and we can make sure you get as much publicity as possible.
Campers will be free to leave on the Monday morning if they choose.
There will be a free goody bag for all cars booked in. The first 50 Goody bags will include a copy of from Ford to Renault, a book charting the career of Patrick Le Quement a famous Renault designer (This books is priced at 58 Euros in France but these are special English translations).

Sorry all

Even though the Festival Renault in France has been cancelled, The Renault Owners Club Diamond Anniversary in Kent is still running as it is being financed by the club and people going. The Festival Renault has been POSTPONED until July.

The ROC Diamond anniversary still has spaces so if you had planned to go to France and now fancy another 2 day event then PLEASE consider supporting it. The UK has been named as a possible host for future Festivals so this may be a good oppotunity to show what we can do.

2 weeks to go, the routes been checked out yesterday for Friday and cover has been got...just in case although the long term forecast does not suggest a months rain in 1 day. W have extended books to first 120 booked in. Also listing other camping very local if you have a big pary and want to save a little money. Walking distance too.

We have jsut added more details to www.renaultownersclub.com/bewl.shtml

But basically - Friday night on site bar and restaurant, Saturday, 60 mile drive taking in local vinyards, steam railway and more, return to site to talk to Annette who is popping in on her round the world tour in a Kangoo. Then barbque and licensed bar in the evening. Sunday, on site activities and an autojumble. Leave any time until Monday morning, camping on and off site possible, local hotels and hostelries mentioned on the website. Goody bag for all those booked in before it closes (Sunday before). You can turn up on the day but there is no guarenttee of entry to our area or the routes or goody bags, will depend how many spares we have.

First 120 goody bags will include a copy of "From Ford to Renault" an English version of a book that retails for over 56 Euros in France.
