Paradise Park Farm - Pre Season Collecters Meeting

Hmm, well a slightly odd way of describing the event... I believe it's been styled as the 'Celebration of Speedway' event since moving to the Speedway Museum at Paradise Park Wildlife Park from High Beech.

 

The rationale behind the event before that, was to commemorate the first Speedway meeting in the UK (debate no doubt would ensue if on a 'history' thread!!), where it happened behind the King's Oak pub. And therefore it was held on a Sunday in Feb.

Moving to Paradise Park was because it's relatively near and the museum's there, of course, but the date has basically remained around about the same time ('twas 19/2 last year).

 

I'd assume it's going to be on this year not least as 2013 is a landmark year..: 85th. anniversary of that first High Beech meeting and worldwide, 90th. anniversary of the first ever Speedway meeting in Australia (now I KNOW that'll spark a debate!)!

Celebration of Speedway of course, couldn't remember the title. Knew it used to be at High Beech. Hope I haven't offended anyone with my terminology. Just trying to find out if and when the event is happening as already have a busy March/April planned.
