MCC - News:


The 2017 National Rally has left the usual date of the Late May bank holiday and has moved to 8th-13th June. This is due to the lack of availability of a suitable site over the bank Holiday weekend.

It is to be held at the Stafford Showground and will have all the usual attractions.  Three evenings of live entertainment, Silent Auction, Stafford Fayre, Homecraft Competition and the grand raffle to name but a few.  

Groups have already been sent the theme for Party Night and it is Countries, contact your committee to find out which country you have been given. 


AVON Group Theme/Events: This is a celebration of the Clubs 60th anniversary that has been put on hold since 2020 due to the Covid pandemic. The theme is the 1960’s & we have chosen the England football teams world cup winning kit as Avon members dress code for party night. This was originally chosen for the 2020 rally which was subsequently cancelled and as some members had already sourced their kit, it seems only fair to use it for this year. The kit consists of a red top, white shorts or crops, knee length red socks & black footwear   { possibly trainers or boots } A football would be a good finishing touch & perhaps you could make a trophy cup or something for the table which we are required to decorate for party night. There is a prize for the best decorated table.

There will be team events & inter Group competitions such as Boules, Quiz & Homecraft. For which volunteers are needed please. There will also be individual competitions to enter (a detailed list of Homecraft Categories will follow in a later email), plus there’s the ever-popular dog show or you can just turn up on the day to audition for the Talent show. There will be three nights professional entertainment also coach trips to places of interest so lots to see & do.
