Hello everyone,
Hope that those who went on Sunday enjoyed our double walk. If you have any photographs either from snowy Pen y Fan or the Brecon Canal walk, and you would like them to appear on the website please contact the webmaster or ask at sign up. We already have some photographs from Pen y Fan up if you missed it and photos for the Cefn Bryn night hike on halloween that our reps Megan and Lesley led very well.
Our next walk is the Peak District Weekend Away, Friday 7th -> Sunday 9th November. The Peak District is a great part of England and I hope those who go have a great time. You can see some photographs from previous years here.
Our next social is tonight! Laser Zone... We will be meeting at Yates at 7pm then heading over to Laser Zone, behind Pizza hut, at 7.30pm. We should be playing 2 games and it will cost £7. Afterwards we will probably chill out and have a few drinks.
Our biggest social of the year, the Christmas Ball, is fast approaching! Thursday 4th December at the Oxwich Bay hotel, tickets are on sale now! It will cost £20 to provide for food, transport and a bottle of wine between two. We will have a copy of the menu for you to choose from at sign up and you can sign up over the next couple of weeks. Don't leave it too late though! We recommend that as many hikers attend as possible, it's not a social to be missed! Photographs from previous years are available here.
This week we will also start sign up for our following hike, Sugar Loaf and Abergavenny, Sunday 16th November. This walk is an A,2 and will cost £5.
The Club has a Facebook Group which any budding Swansea Hiker can join! See you there! Click here to link to the page.
