Driffield Steam Rally Saturday 9th & Sunday 10th August.
Would any member wishing to volunteer for however much or little time on the stand at the 2014 steam & vintage rally at Driffield Showground on Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th August please add your names to this thread and what days/times you would ideally like. It's only two weeks from this next weekend and we need plenty of hands on board.
There's plenty to do whether it's handing balloons to the kiddies, selling raffle tickets, explaining our aims to the public, selling souvenirs, whatever you like. It's usually an enjoyable weekend and we need helpers too for the Friday evening setup and Sunday evening strip down.
There's also usually time for volunteers to have a break and have a tour of the sights and sounds during the weekend and we're usually only a stone's throw from the food stalls which sell some very tasty cooked meat sandwiches!
Entering the showground doesn't cost you anything either as we have visitor passes.

Sorry, I won't be able to help as I'm at a motorcycle rally that weekend.
Re: Driffield Steam Rally Saturday 9th & Sunday 10th August.
I can do all day Saturday, Ivan. And possibly set up on Friday.

Happy to help with this, Ivan if I can and can be around on the Fri evening to help set things up (might be able to get the Fri PM off too if needs be). I'm due to drive down to Devon on Sat, but will try and shift things if I can so I can do the Sat AM.

Jan and I are available for manning the stand at the Driffield Steam Rally. When would you prefer our services. We can make it either or both days. John

Hi John,
If yourself and your good lady Jan would like to staff the stand on the Sunday that would be a great help. Sunday generally tends to be the busier of the two days. If you have any trouble getting into the grounds give me a shout on my mobile which is 07521 457126. I'll allocate passes to you and Jan and will pass the names of people volunteering on our stand to the marshalls so they will know to expect you. The rally opens at 10.00 a.m. on both days by the way though I'll aim to be there for about 9 to half past to start setting up the bits and bobs.
See you there!
N.B. If you would like to come on the Saturday as well you are more than welcome but I'll leave that up to you and Jan!
