The Great North Swim

The Great North Swim

Three of our members went for a swim around Lake Windermere on June 14^th.

Gary Wroe completed the Mile in his best ever 45 minutes. Mike Pagan completed the 2 mile in 55 minutes and Mr. Prez. Came in on the 2 mile at 49 minutes. It was a great event and all three members were dead tired.

They are looking forward to swimming in the Great Manchester Swim on July 20^th.  Then Mr Prez, in the craze of an endorphin filled signing spree logged on for 5.25 miles from tip to tip on Coniston Water on September 14^th. 

If you are doing some fun and engaging things for charity or climbing mountains, crossing continents on the back of a motor cycle, then tell us about it.

                                          

Fellow Members Listen up!

Fellow members we are moving forward and changing things to help the club into the next era. We have had very low attendance outside of special functions on Monday through Thursday. Working with the kitchen team, we have set a A La Carte dining menu which will have choices but not be a traditional roast. Thursdays and Fridays will remain traditional lunch days. This will help with catering and may create some new menu items for your dining pleasure. We have also removed the snooker table in the next plan to use the room for functions so that we are able to run a cold sandwich lunch downstairs for BNI, externally hosted ladies lunches and corporate events and our traditional or business lunches simultaneously. Golf seems to be flourishing again and we are looking forward to Edgbaston on the 1st of August and Little Aston in September. There are plans on for a Rugby Evening in early October, Irish humour night in late October, and a James Bond fancy dress in November. Along with our traditional Thanksgiving and Xmas dos on the calendar. Make sure you check out the video on the website. It is great and Anthony Blakemore and Sarah Whitticase take centre stage to promote our club.
