Caldecote Steam Party
 
A relative of mine who lives in Nuneaton told me recently that he's heard that there's to be no Caldecote Steam Party this year due to a lack of organisers/stewards. Does anyone know if this is true? Pity if it is as Caldecote was the first rally I ever went to.

Lack of engines too I shouldn't doubt...

Not heard anything definite.

There is that too - only a handful when I was last there a couple or three years back.

The web site is still saying that it should be happening but things do often change before sites are updated....

This was the second rally we exhibited at and then it clashed with Vanfest a VW show we went to for a few years. Was going to go back last year and hopefully display again but alas as we all know it didn`t happen...
Another local rally Cadeby Steam and Country Fayre has fallen by the wayside as well:(:(
Lets just hope that things are better this year for those that do go aheadthumbsup

What? No Cadeby either?

No all we have local at the moment is Ashby Magna Midsummer Vintage Festival so lets hope there's good weather and a great turnout........
