| White Horse Meet |
20/08/2021
- 22/08/2021 |
| Thirsk, North Yorkshire |
THIS HAS BEEN MOVED AGAIN!
WE LISTENED AND ACTED UPON YOUR COMMENTS REGARDING A LOT OF STANDING CROP IN JULY.
2021 meet is to be held on 20th to 22nd August. Same venue as usual.
This is one of the longest running meets in our calendar, (2019 was our 21st visit!) and we have great pleasure in inviting everyone along again to take part in the fun and friendly rivalry with the pilots trying their luck to win the White Horse trophy.
Once again, our trophy is currently residing over the border in Lancashire, so come on Yorkshire pilots, let's get it back home this year!
As before, we have the usual well-drained camping and launch area.
The year we have a very special event taking place on Saturday afternoon (as long as all the boxes can be ticked to get it there)
All on-site overnight stays must be pre-booked and paid for please.
