the activities are constantly changing due to the needs of the club.
Activities normally run from September 1 to June 30 of each year except for
walking and golf which run over the months of July and August.
Some groups meet informally over the summer months if a few members have the
interest and time
such as Out to Lunch, Day-trippers or Out to a Movie - check your e-mail for
