Members attended the Club Spring Weekend at Selworthy staying at Holnicote House on the edge of Exmoor.
The weather could not have been better and the food and accomodation were excellent. 3 walks were available each day and the evening entertainment well received.
The organisation was of the usual very high standard.
On
the Walk Information page
we have inserted a new section on Rights of Way. For those interested
in ROW, we offer this item to enable you to go onto the Ramblers
Associations website
to review all 28 items of law included. There are several items in
there
that may update your thoughts on what you considered relevant, so have
a
look at their website.
Members attended the Club Autumn Weekend at Llangollen staying at The Chainbridge Hotel sandwiched between the River Dee and LLangollen canal.
The weather showed off the autumn tints and the fine views from the North Wales paths to perfection and members enjoyed a choice of walks on Saturday and Sunday. The weather on Saturday was fine but Sunday morning was challenging. Even so several members met the challenge and walked including six intrepid souls who braved 11 miles across Ruabon mountain where the green lines on the OS map became blue ones.
Feedback has indicated a very enjoyable time was had by all and Colin Buswell took some wonderful photographs of which more can be seen on the club news page.
Stourbridge,
situated in
the unimaginatively-named, yet accurately-described, West Midlands, is
approximately 20 kms (12 miles) south-west of Birmingham. It is
sandwiched between the Black Country, Staffordshire and Worcestershire.
We are blessed with some magnificent countryside within easy reach -
some as close as a ten minute walk away.
Stourbridge HF Rambling Club (SHFRC) was formed in 1953 and,
over half-a-century later, offers the best and widest choice of walks
of any club in the region.
Walks take place throughout the year on Saturdays, Sundays,
Tuesdays and Wednesdays (plus Thursday evenings in summer). Walk
distances usually range between 4 and 11 miles.
Visitors are welcome on all walks, but must decide whether or not to
join after their third 'free' walk.
Animal pets are not permitted on any club walks.
The annual subscription fee is £5 added to which is a one-off
joining fee of £5. Our membership currently numbers 343 - thankfully
not all walk at the same time!
So if you are a potential new recruit, SHFRC invites you to take up our offer that enables you to enjoy up to three walks - free - before you decide whether or not to join. Click the month of your choice on the right of the Walks Information page and decide which walk you wish to try. We suggest you start off with one of the shorter walks.
We hope that you will find any other information you need to know on the Walk Information page. If you still have an unanswered question, then we invite you to email our Membership Secretary on john.richards@thegavelier.co.uk
Further details regarding club walks are to be found on the
Walks Information page.
