Please see the list below and let Ian know your preferences.
Dear all,
These are the options that we came up with at the meeting on Wednesday night.
Our meeting in August will be a treasure hunt based around the Centenary Orienteering course organised by Andy and will finish at a pub so if people don’t want to go on the hunt they can meet everyone at the pub.
These events are not intended to replace our normal club nights the plan is for them to be additional events (one every 2 to 3 months) open to partners and friends but there is no obligation to attend.
