    Hi Steve,

    Is it possible you could send some details on the planned talks to photos@mynydd.org.uk so we can plan some promotional stuff for the club.

    Just a short piece on who, why, when cost (do we charge?) etc… If we put this stuff on Twitter it gets sent to all the fans of the BMC (about 22k people) so might be a good advert for the club.

    If you can send us the raw info then we can do the rest.

    Thanks

    Steven

    Steve, we don’t charge entry, but I think this is one for the committee;- if they want to advertise this widely there’s a chance the Royal would be inundated with folk trying to jump on the bandwagon of freebie lectures, and if the motive is to have a recruitment drive the committee need to organise relevant crew to be present on the night to sign up potential new members;- over to Rachel and the team to approve the way forward I think

    Cool, will have further chats with Ian et al

    If you are reading this Committee types than let me know your thoughts, I wont be at the dinner so we’ll need to chat soon.

    This is a good op for recruiting, Steve has bagged some interesting folk to talk, so we may need to plan something.

    Let me know…

    latest news- Pete Whittaker lecture 4th December
    Pete’s lecture; ‘beards, Bagels, and big walling’ will tell thetory of his recent trip to Yosemite, where he apparently blitzed some great routes in true Whittaker/ Randall style- promises to be a great night with pictures from his summer assault on all the Brown-Whillans routes in the Peak in a day (used as a warm-up for the states), plus tales of the legendary Century Crack! make sure you don’t miss this one!
