Mega-GLOW-Mania 2022Dates: 12th - 14th August 2022
Location: Folly Farm, Oakwood & Heathertons, Pembrokeshire, Wales “Mae matiau diod go iawn yn cael eu gwneud o bren!” Or in English “Real coasters are made of wood!” Yes it’s time to head to Wales for some Mega-Tastic fun over an action packed three days in three different Parks. Folly Farm on the Friday, Oakwood on Saturday and Heathertons on Sunday. Loads of ERS's, a party on a woodie and a go-kart race. Friday 12th August - Folly Farm Getting more popular each year, this wonderful park is situated just 5 miles from Oakwood and is a combination park, featuring a farm, a zoo and of interest to us, a vintage funfair featuring many classic rides such as Waltzers, Dodgems, Ghost Train, Skid, Caterpillar, Giant Wheel and loads more. Folly Farm has won Wales’ “Top Paid-For Tourist Attraction” and also The Welsh Tourist Board “Best Day Out in Wales.” For full details of the park check out www.folly-farm.co.uk You can enter Folly Farm anytime from 10:30 where you can then enjoy the Park at your leisure before we all meet in the vintage fun fair at 17:30 for our 2 hour exclusive ‘fair’ session (EFS). You will also enjoy an evening meal (basket meal: Fish & Chips, Sausage & Chips, Chicken & Chips or Veggie Burger and Chips all which include a drink). The cost for the Folly Farm day is just £33.50 and that includes park entry, exclusive fair session (EFS) and evening meal. Saturday 13th August - Oakwood Theme Park The main event and of course it involves woooood! Starting at 09:00 you will enjoy a one hour exclusive ride session (ERS) on the UK’s number one woodie Megafobia. This is followed by an optional ‘TreeToppers’ takeover then freetime, where you can explore the whole park for the day including Speed, Dizzy, Disk, Witch Hunt, etc. before it's time for our grand finale: MegaGLOWmania! Once the Park has closed (currently 20:00, but will hopefully change to 22:00) we will have a full one hour ERS on Megafobia whilst the party music plays loud for you to enjoy. A fabulous way to end a wonderful day and many members agree this is one of the best ERS’s you will ever experience! If you’ve never done one before you won’t want to miss it. As usual I’ve done my best to keep the cost to a minimum, and the price is just £28.00. That is £8 cheaper than normal park entry and includes the two ERS’s on Megafobia! Sunday 14th August - Heatherton Make your Mega-GLOW-Mania weekend even more fun by adding a visit to Heatherton, St Florence, Pembrokeshire (6 miles from Oakwood). Heatherton is packed with activities, like clay pigeon shooting, archery, mazes, crazy golf, tree tops trail, etc. And I have arranged a special 10% discount off any token package for the Club. Due to Covid guidelines this year you must pre-book your tokens direct with the Park so head to www.heatherton.co.uk to order and then enter code: KILNPARK2022 at checkout. (You MUST present your 2022 RCCGB Membership card when you arrive to be valid). Heatherton BONUS: Now a Club tradition, I’ve also arranged an EGS (exclusive go-kart session) at Heatherton. From 09:00-11:00 (Sunday 14th). I have rented the whole track and all the karts! These are not sea-side karts, they are proper 40mph race karts. And if you have never done karting before don’t worry, everyone is welcome. You will be provided with a race suit and helmet and even if you just ‘poodle’ around the track it is still great fun. All drivers should get at least four races.The cost for the EGS will be £20.00* per person (depending on numbers), but be warned, there is a maximum number of 14 people (minimum age 14). So if you are interested please e-mail me (andy@rccgb.co.uk) as soon as possible with the subject ‘KARTING’ and I'll send you more details. Payment for karting. Camp Oakwood For yet even more added fun why not stay at “RCCGB Camp Oakwood”. Any closer you’ll sleep on a coaster! It’s a great way to meet fellow members, have a BBQ and share a beer or two! The site is on the Park grounds, right next to Drenched, so approximately one minute from the main entrance. You cannot stay any closer than this! For more details, download the invite, or look for details in AIRtime ONline. Booking buttons are below, but ONline booking will NOT be available until 1st June, so please do not try until then. This page has been prepared in advance, as we'll be on the USA trip when details are mailed out via AIRtime ONline :) |
