Meets and Temporary Holiday Sites are a very economical way of getting more out of Camping and Caravanning Club membership. They are arranged by volunteers for the benefit of all club members, it is not necessary to be a member of the organising group to attend. Both may be on an established campsite with facilities available, usually a reduced fee has been negotiated. Some are at venues where camping is not normally available allowing members to visit different locations or attend nearby events. Social events or gatherings are often arranged but members do not have to take part in these if they don’t wish to. You can be sure to make new friends and be able to get advice and information from fellow members, so if you haven’t camped with a DA or section of The Camping and Caravanning Club, look at the ones listed in this book that have been arranged by fellow members from groups within the South West Region. These events are planned well in advance. It is occasionally necessary to make changes. Please check the out and about section of the Camping and Caravanning Magazine or the organisers’ websites near the time and if possible contact the stewards to confirm opening times and directions.
