Activities Over The Years

 

On this page you will find links to illustrated reports of some of our activities over the years.  These are mainly in addition to our main meetings and shack nights.  This is being added to as we delve further into the archives.  If you have some material about the club that you think should be included here, please let us know, so that we can make the necessary arrangements.
