April 2002 North Scale, Walney Island, Barrow in Furness This was the inaugural meeting for the newly formed Lakes VW Club. The day was sunny but cold. Everyone had a great time, fuelled by a BBQ courtesy of Colin and Carol. New friends were made and the Lakes VW Club was born. |
|
May 2002 Turner Hall Farm, Ulpha, Duddon Valley This turned out to be a wet and windy weekend. Although only a few braved the weather a good time was had by all. The magnificent scenery made up for the poor weather and a warm and friendly pub was found only a mile down the road (Newfield Inn) . Colin and Carol's BBQ made another appearance to accompany a good few cans.

|
August 2002 Tatton Park A great summers day out. We went to Tatton Park in convoy form Barrow. Saw some awesome vehicles and picked up some good tips and one or two bargains. |
|
September 2002 Castlerigg Farm, Keswick This successful event organized by Tracy attracted vans from all over the North West and even as far as Wales. New friends were made with promises to meet up again next year. This is an ideal site being only 3 miles from the beautiful town of Keswick. There's a pub right next to the campsite. This meet proved so popular that we are repeating it again in April 2003. |

April 2003 Castlerigg Farm, Keswick This was our first outing of the year but our second visit to this picturesque site. Doris and co made us very welcome even going as far as to identify the field (The Lakes VW Owners Club) for our sole use. Around 40 vans made the trek to Keswick and although the nights were oh so cold! the sun shone on the righteous during the day. Colin's faithful BBQ made another guest appearance and proved to be very popular as the night got colder. New friends were made with some of our visitors coming from as far afield as Appleby, Wales, Birmingham and Doncaster. Below are some picccies of our beloved VW's. |
