!NEW! 19/1/12 Did you know that 2012 is the groups 20th year- we formed with a meeting in the Cutler pub, N. Anston in December 1992. To mark our 20th anniversary we have several ideas in the pipeline which we hope will appeal to all members. We aim to have a weekend away in early July to Suffolk, this will probably be a Friday- Sunday affair. Secondly at the November meeting we hope to look back at the events and development of the area and group as well as maybe a buffet. Our Annual meal will be slightly earlier, probably in late November. This will be a meal but also a celebration dinner for our 20th anniversary. If there's anything you'd like us to do to celebrate the anniversary then do please let one of the organisers know.
