im newish to the forum, but just looking through here, is a really good idea, im in another club called eastcoastdubs?

EC-DC ? if so they know

nah not ec-dc

Hello to you all, I just saw this on Splitterz and that is a very good idea.
I help organise Elemental (at Stansted) so when all the details are sorted let me know and I will get it announced at the show a few times

http://www.elementalvw.org.uk/

sounds like this could end up being really big

haha i have that calvin and hobbs book on my book rack. got to love it

This sounds like it's shaping up!
Sorry I haven't had any input yet, just not too clued up with big places for a mega-meet tbh.

I think thetford is a good place to have it though.
Nice bit of distance away from here, but not too far, so it would mean a nice big FD convoy on the cards. The players convoy was wicked, gotta love hacking it up the m'way with loads of VW emblems.

Help for heroes - Great idea.
Thetford - Good location.

How about a music truck thingy?
Some events (no matter how small) have a DJ truck thing.
If you let Heart or Star or one of the local radio stations know, they might send a couple of cars down with a PA system. They usually do it for free as it gives them free advertising and would also provide some atmosphere for the day.
Dunno what the park people would say though....

Just an idea I thought i'd throw your way

right guys i need to know who the people are who started the idea of the meet so i can speak to him bout the charity! any one know??

just had a thought! what about 'Eye airfield' its an abandoned airfield just outside off Diss and its huge! been to loads of meets there in the past! let me know what you think!

That be me fella

Location has not been confirmed yet though so theres no need to get ahead of ourselves.

My original location was high lodge but that seems to put peeps off with stupidly low cars plus being charged for the pleasure too.

Hoping some of the locals to it will mention other areas to go.

I guessing approx 200 cars, maybe more

rams meadow car park in bury st edmunds? or somwhere around that area like nowton park bury st eds?

Ram Meadow is open to the public on Sundays so the council may have a hissy fit.................Nowton park has facilities for 200 cars tho


KISS FM is based in Bury St Edmunds so maybe they could send some KISS Angels down

200!!!!!

just for the record, i had an encounter with a couple of thos yellow/black plastic speed bumps. and cracked my car good n proper on the way over it.

Do you have a point of contact for that as i may have another use for it.

sounds like a great idea, count us in and if can help in anyway just let us know

just a idea for a place what about that pub just outside peterboro, where whitenoise was last year (forgot the name of the pub but i'm sure somenone on here knows) get some traders and maybe camping???

TBH mate, you'd be lucky to get on there these days. There's quite a bit of money on that area and i very much doubt the companys on there would want a bunch of cars turning up. Security are jobsworths too

sounds like its defo got to be around the bury/ thetford area to be central.
But just as a thought there's place called Stonham Barns in Stonham, Suffolk which has a very large field area. They would defo be interested in hosting something like this as they had alive & V dubin there last year, Suffolk bug'rs organised it, plus there is no speed bumps to worry about at all.
