We are delighted to announce that our ‘Caravanner of the Year’ competition was filmed by the BBC and will be on BBC2 on 20 and 27 April!

We hope it gets you in the mood for getting out there and enjoying the summer season on our wonderful sites network.

The enthusiasts were faced with a variety of challenges covering activities such as manoeuvring, navigation, hospitality and caravanning knowledge.  There was also the precision challenge of the Concours D’Elegance which demanded much polishing and primping of their vehicles!

The first programme will introduce the entrants and whittle them down to the three finalists.

Tune in and watch, and don’t forget to tell your friends and family about it too!

For Rowena

Please print off the comments made on CT and place them on the chairman's desk tomorrow. Hopefully he will apologise and then resign. All the man can seemingly do is make CC members, who provide the money for the CC and keep him in the job, a laughing stock. What an idiot.

An appaling representation of the membership. We go away in the van to enjoy life in the countyside and see new or interesting places, not to pratt about cleaning and manouvering or sorting underwear in cupboards. Shameful programme, and as to the idiot who damaged his caravan on the slope was it sensible do do that manouver ? No not to an experienced caravanner..... and he is the CEO / chairman dear god ... shocked beyond belief !!!!!!

1. Can't believe you are delighted to announce the load of rubbish I have just seen did the Club agree to this?

2. It didn't get me in the mood at all and probably put a lot of people off especially if you end up next to one of the idiots who can't even reverse their caravan.

3. I'm glad I didn't tell my friends and family about it and quite frankly will be praying tonight that none of them saw it.

4. I hope it gets cancelled next week

We as CC members have the right to complain!  We as quoted above, provide the money for the club. 

how about we ring to complain tomorrow? That will jam the switch board up all day!

Copy of my communication to the Caravan Club:-

Re the BBC program  Caravaner of The Year:  What a travesty. I suggest you all take time to read the comments on Club Together. This program has made a laughing stock of the whole caravanning community. Are we meant to believe that those hapless six couples were representative of the best caravaners?  The Chairman and Executive Committee seem to have managed our affairs rather badly and allowed The Club, and caravaners in general, to be brought into disrepute. I call for their resignation.
