Who's up for a mini meet at Tackeroo again?

See last year's thread

I've just emailed the park ranger who's off until monday week about suitable dates. I think April would be good as per last year as there are two 'local' events already booked for March. Maybe do the 18th?

Possibly do a Saturday night and the mini meet on the Sunday - it's a zero facilities forestry commission site so maybe porta potti's and toilets will be needed.

PS I know I didn't sort the Cosford one :shock:

EDIT - This is a DAY MEET on SUNDAY 18th April at the Tackeroo Campsite on Cannock Chase see CLICK HERE Arrive from 11.00am cost is £3 parking for the day (payable to the Ranger).

Local campsites are nearby and you can stay on tackeroo if you wish (ZERO facilities)

Hi Jamie

I'm waiting on an email from Andy the Ranger to see if we can use Tackeroo - he's off until the 18th - I'm sure he'll tell us.

If not we'll find another spot?

Had a reply from the Forestry Commision:

Hi Graham,

we have been working on the site to fix the problems forcing it closure , we should have the site up and running again for April please keep an eye on the web site for further details or contact me again within a month, we will know more then.

hope this helps

Andy


Will let you all know when I hear any more. Plenty of other sites to meet at up on the chase if this one is a problem.

If Tackeroo is a non starter who would be in favour of doing the RAF museum at Cosford instead? I was going to organise a meet there late last year but didn't get it sorted :oops:

I know it's the official outing from the Bash this year as well.

Hi Jamie

The museum is a Day event only. I don't think you can camp there.

Yes, I Ian announced that just after we were thinking about a pre-christmas meet up there.

I'm hoping Tackeroo will be ok :D
