Message From Ray Kirby - Social Secretary
The forthcoming mini bus survey trips are as follows: March will take us to Linby & Papplewick, and we will look at the Oxton area in April, May, will see us visiting Costock and Bunny, while June will allow us to take in Gunthorpe.
I have arranged a tour of Belvoir brewery on Saturday 26th April at 2pm and have two alternatives to offer; a brewery tour and two hours in the sample room for £10.95, or add a buffet for £15.95. Can anyone interested, let me know as soon as possible, with your preferred choice. I will be taking a mini- bus so we can visit a few pubs afterwards, obviously I will also be charging for this.
I am going to try to revive the Friday evening mini-bus trips, so I’m going to start local and visit the Vale of Belvoir on Friday 18th April.
Newark branch are doing a walk from Thurgarton (station) visiting Hoveringham, Caythorpe and finishing in Lowdham on Saturday 21st June and I have said we will join them. We will be catching the 13.26 train from Nottingham station, so if anyone fancies a spot of exercise interspersed with the occasional half pint, then please let me know, so we can warn the pubs in advance of the extra trade. See the diary dates for all the details. As always, your CAMRA membership card is required to obtain your discount.
Quite a few people have taken me up on the reminder of up and coming trips and other events. The best way of contacting people is by e-mail, but due to the data protection act, you must give me your e-mail address. So I am producing a very short form, which you can use. If anyone wishes to “subscribe” to this new service, then please ask me when you see me or get in touch and we will sort out the necessary details.
See the diary dates column for times and dates of all the trips, socials etc.
As usual, don’t forget, that everyone is welcome to any CAMRA meeting or outing, you do not have to be a member. I might present you with a membership form, but you can ignore it if you want, (most people usually do!). And as always I can be contacted electronically at: - raykirby@ottinghamcamra.org
