Vierw of ALC rally pennon and a couple of units at the weekend.  Due to the use of simple sites, many members when car camping also take a toilet tent and "own sanitation"

The Camping and Caravanning Club recommends that each unit has a fire bucket filled with water placed by their units.  Lightweight campers often use collapsible yellow buckets for such purposes.  This camper had an additional red fire buck for small fires!
