Hide AdWith the sun beating down, many families took the chance of a few days away after experiencing such a difficult year.
Staying in tents, caravans, or motorhomes, it all helped in adding a marvellous atmosphere to the event.
All proceeds from the event raised a massive £1500 for the chosen charities which was split equally between the Heart Foundation, Prostate Cancer and Parkinsons.
The club would like to express many thanks to everyone involved in making it such a success.
