Los Campos Stories
In this feature, starting in next week's edition, you have a chance to describe a memorable Los Campos experience - a goal scored, a memorable game...parents/guardians - please feel free to get stuck in on this!!
You will have heard the sad (but understandable) news that the Camber Sands tournament planned for the May bank holiday had to be cancelled due to virus safety precautions.
This is a perfect time to reminisce on some of the experiences we have had there!!
Send in your graphically detailed stories for a chance to feature in the next newsletter!
Some inspiration:
* Nightmares getting to (or away from) Camber
* First impressions
* Pontins experiences (easy on the graphic details here...)
* Or maybe even a football memory - a goal (for or against), a near miss, a match that stays in the memory...
It can include any of the above or your own take...again, points for creativity!!
