wymberley Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 At least from my end it looks as though the CLA website has collapsed under the strain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blade Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 CLA Game Fair at Belvoir Castle is latest event to be cancelled due to weather Published: 12 July 2012 0 comments THE CLA Game Fair has become the latest event to fall victim to the weather. Organisers have just announced that the event, due to take place at Belvoir Castle from Friday, July 20 to Sunday, July 22, will not go ahead because the site is waterlogged. CLA Director General Helen Woolley said: “I am extremely sad to say the heavy rain in the run-up to this year’s CLA Game Fair has left us with no choice but to take the heartbreaking decision to cancel the show. It is a devastating blow for the CLA team, contractors, exhibitors and the hoards of visitors and guests who make the CLA Game Fair the world’s greatest country show. “I feel enormously sorry for all those who were so looking forward to this year’s event. The CLA Game Fair will return next year.” CLA Game Fair Director Andrew Crawford said: “This was to be my first CLA Game Fair and, naturally, I am incredibly disappointed that the show has been cancelled. My team worked like Trojans in the hope the show could go on, but, sadly, it was not to be. “I can only say sorry to all those affected and we promise to make the process for them now as painless as possible. We will, of course, honour the terms and conditions of all contracts, and members of the public who have bought advance tickets should visit the CLA Game Fair website at www.gamefair.co.uk to apply for refunds.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scolopax Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Does any one know exactly why the Game Fair never returned to Harewood House after it was cancelled due to saturated ground a few years back? It is now not on the rota any longer, Belvoir is the furthest north the GF gets now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
