PLUS NEWS for early 2009

                          

 

 All meets start from the club hut at  08.30 am don’t be late be early, stay the night ?

 

Meet dates in 2009 to be confirmed but unlikely to change. Meets will over the whole weekend as members will usually be staying at the hut. Local members who don't wish or need to use the hut can turnout either day but generally it has been  suggested they prefer Sunday meetings for single day meets.

 

Meets to be from the hut 0830hrs start . Basically we will have them as weekend meets with the incentive to stay at hut and get "clubby" . If you just want to turnout for a day either contact me via this medium ( or any other committee member ) to check if the hut is likely to be visited or turn up on the Sunday.

Meets later in the year----  to be set but we plan to have a camping meet based at the DAN Y OGOF showcave site in the Western Brecon Beacons in July Aug September. There is good walking and plenty of other good things to do. We have had a good turnout there before so drop me a line if you are interested.

 

The South Devon MC / MCNW members have suggested a Dartmoor meet in 2009 perhaps camping on a site. Could any member down there suggest a date and act as linkperson?? I for one will turn out and others from Glos say the same plus its only as far as the Brecons from here.

 

 

Away meets will be added ie a meet in Rhinogs or Lakes or Scotland if members request them please contact me via the website email if you wish as a member to organise a meet or can suggest a location other than the hut as a meeting location. Its all down to the membership to tell the committee where they are willing to meet. Members meets at the hut need not be on the above dates and prospective members  can use these occasions to join the MCNW.

 

Watch the Bulletin for changes and additions.

    As THERE WILL BE NO MEETS PROGRAMME CARD FOR 2009  please note the   08.30 start !!!! don’t be late be early

or stay the night ?? Members can wait for latecomers if contact details are sorted out beforehand.

Members trips will be added as they are reported please let me or another committee member know if you are organising a trip and would like to open it to club members you can of course “vet “ any members again these are chanced to bring along your interested friends with a view to join them up. They will need to attend the hut as well to ensure they can safely use it ( water and power).
