We will have more details over the coming weeks including how to order your discounted tickets, the hill climb will be supported by PCGB with Region 13 having the lead role, so we need to have a good turn out both in attendance and helping out.
Lots of interesting items at the event including an auction.
We will offer refreshments to PCGB members and try to sign up new ones.

Do you still have to pay to be a 'helper'? or 'marshall'?

Do you still have to pay to be a 'helper'? or 'marshall'?

I am afraid you do still have to buy a ticket, using the club discount code

We had a good weekend at the Chateau with lots of interest in the club and our cars and for most of the weekend, but especially Sunday, we had good sunny weather.
I would just like to thank our members who helped over the weekend especially Graham, Patrick, Mark, Stephen and Yiannis and a special thanks to Mandy and all at HQ for their help and support.

Stand Early Sunday morning, waiting for the crowds
