Walking Views May 2008
Looking at our summer Walks Programme, I think I can safely say that
with over 50 walks taking place, and with the amount of variety and
length, this is our best one yet. We’ve also got quite a few new
walks leaders.
Once again Bob ran an excellent Emergency First Aid course; everyone
who attended now feels confident to deal with most problems that
could arise on our walks. Another
Map and Compass course was also organised at Camer Park.
We had a brilliant weekend away in the Shropshire hills, staying
near The Wrekin. Our thanks go to Bill, Doris and the Social
Committee for organising such a wonderful time for us all. It was
very nice meeting new members who are at the moment taking part on
the short walks and, with perhaps more encouragement, will try the
longer walks soon.
We
also had an excellent Barn Dance with over 70 members turning up. We
all tried new dances! Thanks again to the Social Committee for
organising the buffet. With all the events that have taken place and
more to come in the summer, I’m sure that there is something to suit
everyone.
George, our Chairman, is making steady progress but had a setback
after a bout of flu. He sends everyone his best wishes.
Have a great summer!
