Fell Race @ The Roaches Tearoom

All that we know is that it will be around 7k and to be at the Roaches Tearoom (ST13 8TY) at 10.30am for an 11.00am departure.

AGM
Dec 3 @ 5:30 pm – 10:00 pm

AGM is 5.30-6.30pm. Food at 6.30pm BUT you must have ordered by 5.30pm. The pub is offering a short menu but only way they can prepare everything to be ready around 6.30 is if orders are in before AGM starts.

After the food, the holiday slideshow, starting around 7.30pm. Please bring your slides on a memory stick (or email them to me by saturday evening). Please keep it to no more than around 10 minutes of slides so that there is time to see everyone’s slides without running too late with school the next day.

There is a resonable sized free public carpark 50 yards the hill from the Norfolk Arms towards Stockport, just above the Midland Hotel. There are also public car parks slightly further up the hill behind the Purple Pakora and opposite in the train station

A reminder that we are voting on the changes to the constitution reviewed at the last AGM. The details have been in the website members area since last year and can still be viewed there.

Patterdale Hut Meet @ George Starkey Hut
Jan 12 – Jan 14 all-day

Leader: Penny Carroll
This year we are returning to the ever-popular George Starkey Hut in Patterdale. The hut is ideally located for walking, mountain biking and winter climbing if the conditions are favourable. Unfortunately the members’ room is now reserved for the Alpine Club so there are only 22 places available and the cost for the weekend will be £25.

Make sure you email me and transfer £25 into the club account to secure your place.

Cairngorms Winter Meet

It goes without saying that the last couple of dodgy winters will be compensated for with fat ice, miles of off piste skiing and fantastic cold/clear/crisp weather. See the forum for more details:

Gower Peninsula Early May Bank Holiday Meet
May 4 – May 7 all-day

Organiser: Jules Lane

The Gower peninsula is a lovely place to climb. It’s limestone like south Pembroke but rather more friendly, with a real holiday vibe. You may well have been there in the past but as a club we have not been there for quite a few years, so let’s put that right.
