National 2013 my thoughts.
Although been a member for 8 years and Caravan regularly, this was our 1st rally of any kind, me wife 2 daughters 8 & 4, we absolutely loved it, I can appreciate the hard work & hours that go into organising this event, as the CC says always looking to improve
here a few things that I feel could be improved upon (maybe) a couple of the helpers/volunteers that we encountered could perhaps smile a bit more and lighten up, so regimented / stuffy, as for the fun dog show the lady my little girl registered with certainly
took the fun bit out of the show.
Food served in the marquee could be better( I appreciate i'm in the middle of a field but being charged real prices (breakfast & carvery), food in the food hall was a bit happy shopper rather than waitrose, as someone already said it can be difficult emptying
there waste water.
we were pitched at the very edge on the northern boundary and was amazed at how many people did not pick up there dog mess, I personally pulled 4 people on this (we had our dog with us) out of order no need for it.
Spoke to many people while there, a lot were saying the same, needs younger blood, to heirachal.
before anyone suggests I am not volunteering, it just aint my thing, just giving my honest opinion on a few things, as I said we had a great time and will be at Arley.
