  • Brochure 13057
    CHAIRLADY’S MESSAGE Welcome to our 2018 rally brochure. This is my second year as Chairlady and now that I have got my first year ‘under my belt’ I think we may enjoy this year even more. Simon and I would like to thank you all for the support you have given us throughout our first year. The centre held 35 rallies in 2017 and there was a mixture of venues and activities to choose from. I would like to thank all the Marshals for giving their time in organising and running these rallies for our enjoyment. Rallying is a great social encounter for everyone, young, old and the whole family and South Yorkshire Centre keeps some fine traditions including our Centre Queen and our Carnival Floats of which we are truly proud. The Centre Queen is crowned at our May Day rally and we have 3 carnival rallies at which we enter a Queens float and a South Yorkshire Centre float which in 2018 is themed around ‘Back to School’. So, get those school uniforms on and join in. You will see in this brochure that once again there is a wide variety of rallies to offer. If you are new and aren’t quite sure if rallying is for you give the Rally Marshal or a Committee member a call. I am sure they will answer all your questions and put you at ease. I would like to thank the land owners, site managers and farmers who allow us to use their land and facilities. Please show consideration for their property by noting ‘out of bounds’ areas and follow the centre rally rules with regards to the Red Flag should it be raised.
