Christmas Theme NFOL

Christmas Comes But Once A Year...except for the Camping and Caravanning Club last weekend.This year’s National Feast of Lanterns was held at the Pickering Showground in Yorkshire and the theme was ‘Christmas’!

It was quite a remarkable weekend, and even the weather managed to behave itself until Sunday afternoon.

With a weekend of fun-packed entertainment, from babes in arms to our older generation, there was something for everyone to join in with.

The Mardi Gras on Saturday, as usual, was a parade not to be missed! And then it was onto the evening parade with the torchlight procession. Finally, there was the tour of illuminated caravans with an array of themes, Christmas lights and lanterns which gave a wonderful Christmas feel to the rally.

It amazes me where all these fantastic ideas come from. What incredible hard work and dedication it must have taken by members who helped make it a most enjoyable weekend for all.

Next year’s event will take place at Blenheim Place, Woodstock, Oxfordshire, over the weekend of the 20th to 24th August 2009. The theme for next year is “Time Travel”.

So there’s plenty of opportunity to get all your street scene idea’s together to make another wonderful successful weekend.
