Welcome to the Roch Valley District Association (RVDA) website.

As part of the Camping and Caravanning Club, RVDA are a group of campers comprising families, couples and singles of all ages dedicated to caravanning, meeting and socialising with friends and like minded people and enjoying the great outdoors.
We camp most weekends throughout the summer months and even a few in winter.
Please feel free to peruse our web site to find out what we get up to.
Any feedback you chose to provide will be well received, and, should you wish to join us on the field, you are assured of a warm RVDA welcome.


A message from the Chairman

On behalf of the Roch Valley District Association (RVDA) of the Camping and Caravanning Club (CCC) may I welcome you to our website. The website has been developed to help you gain an insight to the RVDA and its activities.
We are a family friendly group with a newly formed and vibrant Youth section. Our regular weekend meets take place over a widespread area of the North West of England attempting to cater for all our members near and far. Our Weekends cover a  variety of activities including family walks, visits to local places of interest, sports, fun & games on the field and, of course, sociable and often entertaining gatherings in the evenings.
DA meets, like ours, are an affordable form of camping. We regularly camp in defined farm rally fields, rally sites attached to official campsites or we are maybe sited adjacent to a village hall for our evening ‘get togethers’, especially in the winter months.
Our ‘Roast Night’ meet, held annually in early June, has just taken place and you will see from the photo gallery what a great entertaining weekend the RVDA organised for its fellow CCC members. Like every weekend we camp, we aim to create an enjoyable and friendly atmosphere  and I can assure you of a warm welcome to you all on the field at all of our meets.
If you are a member of the Camping and Caravanning Club and would like to camp with us, whether in a Tent, a Trailer-Tent, Motor-Home or Caravan please see our list of meets for the 2009 season and feel free to join us.

May I wish you all an enjoyable time when camping with us.           

Ian Tyrer
Chairman RVDA

ROAST NIGHT
WEEKEND
For anyone who supported the Roast Nite at Edisford Bridge, however big or small your contribution, may we offer a great big thank you for your efforts. We tried to thank as many people as possible at coffee morning but, unfortunately, its not possible to go through every single name but there are 2  couples we'd like to mention that were missed. Firstly Tony and Maureen Shields for bringing the supplies of beer for the bar, where would we be without them?? A huge thank you to you. Secondly to Bob and Elaine who were working like beavers on Friday night cooking burgers for everyone. It was another successful job well done. Over all, despite the weather, which could have been worse but still could have been better, the weekend was a great success once again, so please, everyone who helped, give yourselves a big pat on the back.
Check out the pictures to see what went on.

 

 


 
Following a very enjoyable family holiday in France last year a number of us are once again travelling to Brittany (different campsite than last year!). 9 units have booked to date. If you are interested, please contact Ian Tyrer (ityrer@rvda.info) for details.

We've had 2 excellent weekends in both the bank holiday meet at Arley Hall and a quieter, but most enjoyable meet, at Brocklehead Farm Darwen. Now's the time to write something about your experiences at the meets and send them off to Bob Rickards for the REIVALLEY. Strike while the irons hot!! Let everyone know your thoughts on the meet. After all the magazine is now available to a much wider audience with it being published on the website too. It is a magazine for you by you and is an advert for your DA!!

You might want to tell us about a recent rally ... good or bad. Is there an event you want to tell us about? An anniversary or birthday?
Or maybe just a message to a friend.
Let Bob know and he'll do the business for you.

Meet the youth

We've re-established the RVDA Youth section at last.
Although it's still in the early stages, the hope is to develop the section into a major part of the group.
In the short time they've been together, we've already had a few activities which everyone seemed to thoroughly enjoy.
At the recent Glasson Dock meet, a gentleman from a visiting DA commented that it was wonderful to see the kids having such a good time and the sound of laughing and squealing was a reminder of times gone by.
The new leaders, Peter and Jayne Fryer and Mark and Sarah Sharples, are committed to the cause and the kids have been coming up with all sorts of ideas for fun and adventure. Lets hope the leaders can stand the pace.
The children have been raising their own funds and already have a substantial pot.
Many thanks to members who have contributed in so many different ways.
Let's not forget, the children are the future and we need them to continue the traditions of the club.
