We are gearing up for the hard work associated with setting up for the Jamboree and our small team will be hard at work from early on Wednesday erecting fences, signs and ,marking out Trader pitches and camping area in readiness for the arrivals that will begin on Friday.

Having spent the last three days at the site promoting the weekend from our stand at the West of England Steal Societies 3 day Rally we are unable to begin our work until they have vacated the site, makes it interesting!

Pre bookings have now ended (31st July was the cut off) but, we have plenty of space to accommodate you on site if you arrive on spec on Friday,Saturday or Sunday so don’t worry, you will not miss out on the fun of pur 25th Jamboree.

This year we have striven to improve our allocation of camping space and along with the pre-booked Club pitches we will have allocated space for family camping for those with young children looking for a quieter space to pitch in.Be sure to ask when you arrive to be directed to the quieter area if this is your wish.

Don’t forget we have two special classes in this years Show & Shine on the Sunday. The first of these is the 1986 class for cars built or registered in 1986, the first year of the Jamboree. The second class is the Children’s pedal car class. This can be made of any material but must be pedal powered and have a VAG badge to qualify for entry. Get the kids interested early to keep the scene vibrant and alive.

If you like good food you will be in luck as we have a great selection of Caterers coming along to cater for your every need from oriental fare to roasts and the staple food of Cornwall the Pasty cooked on site by the Rippon family.

Liquid refreshment is also readily available with soft drinks from the catering area and alcoholic drinks for the grown ups from our fully stocked Bar in the marquee. There is also a sweet trailer with Candy floss within the trade stand area to keep the younger visitors happy.

Children have always been well catered for at the Jamboree and 2011 is no exception. In the Marquee we will have numerous sets from Richard Ready and Mr Wacky whose completely diverse styles of magic always enthrals the youngsters. When added to the activity workshps and the other entertainment available in the shape of bouncy csastles, electric go carts and laser tag etc there will be plenty to keep them happy in the safe environment of the show thanks to GSD Security and the extended VW family.

Live entertainment of Friday and Sunday evening with disco’s for the kids in the early evening and, of course, the themed Disco on Saturday to give you the chance to dress up in true 80′s fashion and let your hair down.

Toi make sure things run smoothly with everyone happy and safe there has to be a few rules. Please take to time to famiarise them from this sute before you come or, by reading your programme to make sure you keep on the right side of Security. We don;t want to ruin fun but some activities just cannot be permitted.

The use of BB Guns on site and their sale is prohibited. Better to keep both eyes we think.

The use of Chinese lanterns is prohibited too. They conyain wire and, can cause serious injury to cattle if they manage to ingest any part of them. We are in true agricultural territoty bafter all asnd must have due consideration for them.

We also ask that all radio’s, CD Players etc be turned off by midnight to avoid problems for fello campers and the local residents surrounding the site.

Enough of that! we want to see as many of you as possible at our great show. Plenty of fun for the whole family in a lovely setting and less that 1/2 an hour from either the North of the South coast of Cornwall should you wish to take a trip off site at some time.

We will have a local butcher calling to see us late on Friday and also at varying times on the Saturday and Sunday.

A local milkman will also be on site at least once on each of the three days too.

Hope to meet you later this week.
