| Annual General Meeting
|
We tend to have a formal meeting, such as a lecture, on at least one Monday in each month that we meet at the school and informal meetings or DF Hunts on the other Mondays.
The informal meetings give members a chance to get on the air, do some construction work, just have a good old chin-wag with some old friends, or make some new friends.
Tea, coffee and biscuits are normally available (for a very small charge) at our meetings
Why not join us? Come along and we will make you very welcome.
