AN OLYMPIC
YEAR FOR RAMBLING
We would like to wish a belated Happy
New Year to all our members and
visitors.
We’re looking forward to our 20th
year, with many walks planned and social events organised, in
including a special celebration of the group’s
anniversary.
In November the group had a very
successful AGM as usual.
About 60 members were present which is excellent for a group
of our size. The
items on the agenda, where necessary, were democratically debated
and decisions taken to enable the group to function efficiently. We
were extremely fortunate at the AGM to get a volunteer to take over
from Peter as Treasurer, namely Andy. Our thanks go to him and to
Peter for all his hard work in the
role.
The Christmas lunch was also a great
success! Again 60
members attended, and everybody enjoyed themselves. It was a wonderful occasion
for members to socialise and relax. The venue was superb and the
meal was very good.
There were 29 members on the pre-lunch walk led by Peter and
Ann; thank you to them for organising and leading the walk. We were entertained by
another Peter who gave us a rendering of the Queen’s speech in
cockney slang. Thanks Peter – we’ll book you for next year! It was great to see
everyone, and thanks go to social committee, and a special thanks to
Ann and Carolyn, for organising this
event.
Keep Walking in 2012!
