The Shrewsbury-based caravan and motorhome dealership, Salop Leisure, has been chosen as one of five locations for a ‘Share the Moment’ Roadshow during the National Camping and Caravanning Week (NCCW) from 29 May to 4 June.

Organised by the Camping and Caravanning Club, the roadshow will visit Salop Leisure’s Emstrey headquarters on 31 May and aims to bring to life the joys of camping and caravanning so that visitors can share their memories and experiences with loved-ones.

A wide range of activities will be laid on during the roadshow and a chef will prepare tasty dishes cooked on an outdoor camping stove for visitors to try.

Activities include a climbing wall, survival skills, Vango AirBeam Challenge, Hyundai and Base camp competition, Truma and Powrtouch children’s craft tent, Thetford mini golf, the Swift Scalextrix’s caravan towing challenge and face painting. In addition, Polly’s Parlour will be serving ice cream during the day.

Camping and Caravanning Club’s exhibition unit will be available for people can find out about different camping destinations and the benefits of being part of the club.

There will also be a chance to win a camping or caravanning break in a ‘Sharing the Moment’ competition, which will be open to people visiting the roadshow.

“It’s the first time the National Camping and Caravanning Week roadshow has visited caravan dealerships and we are delighted to be one of only five venues across the UK chosen to host an event,” said Ed Glover, Salop Leisure’s marketing manager. “It promises to be great fun for all the family.”
