Northern Area Pudsey Swapmeet, New Venue
PUDSEY SWAPMEET AND INDOOR FLY-IN
For The last fifteen odd years the BMFA Northern Area has organized this event at the Pudsey Civic Centre near Leeds. Unfortunately the costs of this venue has now escalated so much that it is no longer viable so an alternative has had to be found. Therefore the SWAPMEET ONLY will be on Saturday 6th September in the gymnasium at the Spen Valley Sports College, Robertown Lane, Liversedge, West Yorkshire, WF15 7LX, from 10.0am to 1.0pm. To avoid confusion there will be a well signposted separate entrance and car park for Sellers from 9.30 with Tables at £3 to include 1 person with £1 per extra person. There will be a separate car park for buyers who will be allowed in at 10.0am at £1.00 each.
Under 16 year olds will be free, sadly we cannot have indoor flying, and there are no catering facilities except vending machines.
