Places of Interest Visitors Book Committee
1. Please remember the 20 foot rule. This is the minimum separating distance between units. There is normally ample room at our weekend meets for campers to spread themselves a little more generously.
2. All visitors must report to the site steward immediately on arrival at the site
3. THS ONLY Generators: The following has been agreed throughout IOW DA. "Campers may only use generators with the stewards permission. If a complaint is received or the steward considers it to be causing a nuisance then he may ask the camper to stop using it ."In the light of a number of complaints we have found it necessary to restrict the use of generators to the daylight hours of 10am to 9pm.
4. Children and adults should not play games on the camping field. This applies especially to ball games and throwing "Frisbees".
5. THS ONLY All vehicles -including cycles - should keep their speed down to 5mph. It may be your child or grandchild that runs out in front of you and braking is much slower on grass. No vehicles to be driven on the site between 11pm and 7am
6. Speed limits on other sites as per their instructions
7. Dogs should be kept on a no longer than a six foot lead at all times.If you have pets please ensure that it does not cause annoyance in any way to other campers. Farm buildings and farm implements are normally out of bounds, farm gates are not made to swing on and straw bales are not for climbing on or building with.
For information
1. All adults camping at DA meets must be Camping club members. Children under 12 years old must camp with their parents or grandparents.
