Update:
- Please read the instructions and see the maps below. Let me know if you have any remaining questions.
Type of event:- Informal gathering for MLU members, families & enthusiasts of Canadian and British WW2 military vehicles in a "cars & coffee" setting.
- There are not a lot of formalities, other than:
- Only Canadian and British vehicles manufactured before the end of World War 2 are allowed entry onto our camp site. This includes bicycles and motorcycles of course.
- Please follow the directions on where to park - see traffic flow below.
- Period clothing is welcomed, but this is a vehicle event, not a reenactment event.
- This is not a car boot sale/ militaria fair, so don't expect your can turn up with a trailer full of parts and set up a stall.
- Be kind and courteous to the participants and public, don't litter etc. (apply your common sense).
Note: if we are able to run this event with minimal nuisance to the village, we may well be invited to organise this event at this site in the future.
Registration:- Please post in this thread which vehicle(s) with how many people your will be bringing to the event (if not already done so).
- There is no formal registration fee, but we will be setting up a tip jar as a "thank you" for the farmer who has made this field available for our event.
Timing:- Start: you are welcome from 10:00 hrs onwards.
- End: we expect most participants will leave around 14:00 hrs. By 16:00 hrs the field needs to be cleared.
Traffic flow: - When driving up to the Batterie du Longues sur Mer, coming from the village you will drive up the road called Rue de La Mer.
- Turn left, drive past the Parking and follow the road until you are waved into the entry into our camp site at the green arrow.
- The vehicle line up will be along the orange line.
- Exit will the at the light blue arrow.
Note: please park your non-Commonwealth and other vehicles at the Parking (circled in red) and walk up to the Camp site.
Camp site:- Our camp will be situated in the triangular field - see the yellow lines - just behind the bunker line. You are welcome to have a look.
Support:- We could do with some help from MLU members to direct traffic and maybe some other activities. So if you plan on attending and are willing to help out, please drop me an email.
Looking forward to meeting you there!
