Sprite Caravanners Club - membership badge (1960’s / 1970’s)

The Sprite Caravanners Club was established in 1959 and in 1996 became part of the Sterling Caravan Owners Club, which is still active. Membership is by annual subscription and open to all owners of Sterling and Sprite caravans produced by the Swift Group as well as those who own caravans previously produced by the Sprite Leisure Group and CI Caravans (Caravans International). The club is organised into eight regions covering England, Scotland and Wales and also organises its own club and holiday rallies, sometimes overseas too.
