WELCOME TO CHOC
(Chedworth Oil Club)
NEWSLETTER

As you may remember CHOC gave £500 to the Chedworth Play Area scheme in March this year.
Since then various problems have beset the scheme culminating in some of the land originally designated being unavailable for the foreseeable future.
The Play Area Committee have therefore decided to phase the work and start by utilising existing Village Hall land to provide a new, fully equipped toddler’s play area.
The CHOC committee is happy that the money donated will help to achieve this objective.

If, when you joined CHOC, you didn’t have email but now do, please send your email address to paul@pandelunt.co.uk.
If you are new to the village, or if you still haven’t joined, you can find all the information you need about CHOC on this website where you can also download a membership form.

Thanks to our continuing successful agreement with Sweet Fuels, CHOC has been the basis for a proliferation of similar Clubs in the Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Wiltshire regions, just under 30 at the last count who are using Sweet and similar operating procedures.
As a result of this and the present economic climate there has been a lot of media interest in our operation and we have done various T.V., radio and newspaper interviews, none of which you will hopefully have seen, heard or read about as they were aired primarily out of our immediate area.
Unfortunately the media interest is still very lively and CNN have recently done a piece which had a strong reference to Sweet Fuels to such an extent that it will prove to be a superb promotional tool for them.
We continue to be asked by numerous village representatives how we operate and how our supplier has performed.
We can only speak how we find and the general consensus of our members is that Sweet have fulfilled all their contractual obligations.
As a result of all this exposure, we have undoubtedly placed a lot of business Sweets way so we have renegotiated the summer draw prize from 500 to 1,000 litres.
This will enable us to give more members a chance of winning some free fuel.
