Rally Point Details:
14th - 16th July 2023 - Salisbury Plain:
A weekend of (slightly) rough camping at the Veterans in Action Charity HQ in Andover. Arrive on Friday and enjoy a chill out by the fire, relax and just take a wander around the beautiful grounds.
We will be camping in a field on a working farm with full access to toilets, showers and a kitchen.
On Saturday, for those that want to, we will take GUIDED trips around Salisbury Plain Training Area visiting many of the key sites including Stone Henge. Stone Henge is different in the summer. Beautiful open scenery and you can see for miles in all directions. There are, literally hundreds of miles of tracks and this is perfect for beginners or those with more valuable vehicles (cough).
Non scratchy.
Saturday night will be BBQ and a fireside chat. One of the guest speakers is a veteran of the Special Air Service. This is very informal with open questions and a real treat. We will, of course, partake of some beverages!
Sunday, for those that are keen, we will go out again!
The weekend is completely FREE. There is nothing to pay whatsoever.
Camping is free
BBQ is free
Guided Laning is free
This weekend is about getting to know the charity Veterans In Action. They want you to get to know them.
If you want to make a donation then the amount you donate is entirely up to you. No pressure whatsoever.
As a veteran myself, this charity is particularly close to us.
Register your interest here and PM if you intend to attend.
We've done this trip before and several members here have attended. It's a great experience and in many ways humbling.
If you can't make it all or just want to lane or attend the BBQ that is no problem at all.
