The table below is an indicative guide only as to a typical schedule of Club activities, including social events, which the Club Committee seeks to provide for members every year. The indicative schedule may be adjusted to develop new activities or remove ones that may be less popular with members.  Note: "Day Walks" can be half day or whole day.
