Annual General Meeting

It was part of the mention of deposits and our very changing situation

Ooo! Hot off the press. Deposits and be able to book a pitch type latter end of next year. No other details though.

Thanks, if true, that is diabolical.

Straight from the mouth of the DG. 

Use of sites is the only Club service I have used for some time now and if the only way you can be certain of getting a pitch is by booking a year in advance then for me there is little pont in retaining membership. Also, being of a certain age, I was not happy about the discrimatory response I heard to a question about insurance.

The meeting was recorded, hopefully this will be made available fairly promptly and I can catch up/re-estabish with what was actually said.

Can you give us a hint about insurance, does it concern club members cover or CC Ltd?

It was about Club members insurance. It concerned me that the Club would not insure over 80s unless they had previously been continual insured with the Club. This was the case even though membership of the Club had been for a considerable number of years. I think this was about outfit insurance but I am not sure about that.

I think it related to vehicle insurance PD, rather than Caravan Cover. The webpage for Motorhome Insurance does mention that minimum and maximum age does apply........bottom of this link.

It does not really matter what insurance it is/was. The point is you can either insure someone or not whether they have continually been insured with the Club or not should be irrelevent.The fact you have been paying into the Club for a number of years adds insult to injury.

The minutes of the meeting should clarify.

Thanks Peedee

It's taken a long time to get to this point.  I think it was around 10 years ago when I bought up the suggestion that folk should be allowed to book a pitch surface type, and I have been bringing it up at every suitable opportunity since.  I know there will be many who will welcome this facility, when the new booking engine is released  at some stage in 2022.
