The following supporters of our glorious marque have conformed that they will be attending. Such is the success of this event 'old timers' will notice that there are a few new names on the list...
There will also be a small range of clothing - details to follow - marked with the "Griff Growl 2007" logo, which will include the traditional Polo Shirt but as well as new additions of a Baseball cap, Waterproof Jacket and Fleece.
We are also discussing special offers with a number of the above supporters of the Growl and details of these will be released as and when - so watch this space!!!
During the course of the Saturday/Sunday we will also have a few competitions and some organised run outs.
Friday night (for those early birds) is looking to be a beer and curry night with a trip into Stratford for the curry following last year's successful event. Saturday night will be the traditional BBQ with live band at The White Horse.
In recognition of the work that the Gloucester Air Ambulance did last year in saving the life of Paul van Loock ('Dutchone') and wife Jacky after they had crashed en route, this years Growl will be supporting that charity. You will recall that we raised £557 last year for the MS Society and will aim to do better for this year.
Rooms are going fast so get booking....See above for Booking Reference.
Basically...can you afford NOT to attend?
