_NEWLY UPDATED 28 APRIL 2009_
_ROAR 2009_
4th to 6th September 2009, Staverton Park, Daventry, Northamptonshire
The key objective of this year’s event is to have FUN whilst raising money for charity.
How we intend to achieve this is by inviting TVR owners to enter a team with the prime objective of winning the ‘Roar Challenge‘. The challenge will take place on the Saturday only.
We intend to run three types of challenges - agility, skill and team - with a total of nine events over the weekend. The aim being that teams enter the challenges with the objective of scoring the most points. The winning team with the most points will take the pot of money raised for their chosen charity.
We intend to raise the money by teams bringing an entry donation (each team will be required to donate money to the pot), in addition to this exhibitors entry and a charity auction will all go into the pot!
There will be a number of TVR owners who are connected in some way to a charity that has a need, and it is you that we want to come forward so that we can support you and your charity.
How to Enter
The deadline is 30th July 2009 to enter. Each team that enters must have at least one person available to enter into each of the challenges with a maximum of two people per challenge from each team.
If you would like to enter a team and do not know anyone else or have enough people, then please make contact with us (details below) and we will help put one together.
It is vital that each team put themselves forward and nominate a chosen charity by 30th July. We will require the full contact details of the charity so that in the event the team wins, we can contact the charity at the end of the weekend and arrange for the winning team to deliver the winning funds and arrange a photo opportunity.
The ROAR Challenge 2009

Angus do you have a road run sorted yet?
The hotel sits on a 'bikers triangle' which is ideal for a suggested route for an hours drive.

You should be able to book now.
The cost is £25 per person per night with breakfast based on two people sharing. this rate is reduced by more than half the normal cost), venue facilities as well as the weekend's agenda to follow.
Let me have any feedback on booking process
Lizzy
That’s great news can't want to see the car
As for stand prices its all for a good cause
We have asked exhibitors for £50 and to donate a prize for the Auction!
All the money generated from the exhibitor and the auction on Saturday night will go towards the winning team’s charity.
However we still need to find a DJ to do Saturday for free that is proving to be a real challenge.
