Guys, I realise how hard it can be to find a venue and get the ball rolling. Myself and my wife set up the MK2 Golf Owners Club 5 years ago and we had a similar discussion regarding our annual meet. We tried Billing for the first 2 years and found this very costly indeed. There you will not have an option of charging ticket prices as people pay Billing on on the gate and I think that asked for £10 per person 3 years ago. For the last 2 years we have used a venue called Stoke Prior Sports and Country Club. They only charge a nominal fee and you can therefore charge for tickets, recoup costs and possibly make some money for the club pot so to speak. It is litterally straight off junction 5 of the M5 near Brosgrove, so very accessable for the majority of people. On site there is a club house, with very cheap food and drink, around £2.40 a pint and meals from £5 per head. They will also allow you to have a DJ or indeed arrange a DJ for you. There is also electric hook up available for campers and they will cater throughout the weekend for you. If you need any help just let me know.
