For the duration of the event, a named person, the Steward, is to be responsible overall for the conduct and safety of every event. It is essential that each event Steward be provided with a copy of this guidance. The Steward must also hold a valid copy of the Club’s Certificate of Exemption for display and inspection during the event. Valid copies are distributed to Club units annually and are available from the Exempted Camping Department, or via the Downloads Area of the Exempted Camping Database. Campers must not arrive prior to, or leave after, the advertised start and end dates, and must not occupy the site in the absence of a properly appointed Steward. To do so is often a source of conflict with the landowner and is outside the provisions of the Club’s exemptions under which the events are held. Proof of Club membership must be shown by all participating members at all camping events. Members’ camping units may not be left unoccupied overnight, except in exceptional circumstances, at any Meet or THS organised under the Club’s exemptions to the 1960 Act.
