CAB’s 30th Anniversary – AGM, Dinner, Golf and Activities Day

Thursday 20th June 2024

Carden Park Hotel, Cheshire

We are delighted to announce details of our 30th AGM, Dinner, Golf and Activities day.

We will be returning to Carden Park Hotel, near Chester to celebrate our 30th Anniversary. The hotel, which is located in a beautiful 900-acre site, is easily accessible from the M6, M56 and M53. Its facilities include an outstanding spa, with private garden, hot tubs and outdoor pools.

The AGM & Annual dinner is the highlight of the CAB calendar and always proves to be a popular event. In our celebratory 30th year we expect demand to be high and we would encourage you to book early to secure your places for golf, activities, dinner and bedrooms.

CAB will be providing golf shirts for all those taking part in our golf competition, which this year will carry the CAB Anniversary logo along with that of our chosen charity, CRASH.

Our after-dinner entertainment will include, back by popular demand, Ian Stone.

Ian is known to CAB having entertained us and been well received at a previous event. He is a stand-up comedian, broadcaster and writer notable for appearing as a guest on shows such as the comedy panel show Mock the Week.

Finally, a musical extravaganza awaits at the end of the evening with the rock/pop band The Capricorns taking the stage. The 8-piece London based band continue to tour the country to rave reviews.

From 8.30am  Golf registration & refreshments in the Clubhouse

The Golf tournament will be held on the 6,824 yard Cheshire Championship course. This mature and scenic heathland course offers a test for all levels of player and the recently refurbished clubhouse gives stunning views over the course and, in particular, the 18th green. The cost is £85 + VAT which includes coffee and a bacon roll before tee-off and halfway house refreshments.

We have decided to bring the activities back this year andare pleased to offer Air Rifle shooting and Archery. Try your hand at both during the experience. Please bear in mind that numbers are limited so please book early. The activities will take place in the grounds of Carden Park, meeting at the events station at 11am.
