Outings

Outing 1 Event Great Bustard Visit
Date Tuesday, 23 April 2024
Description This is a follow-on visit from the talk we had from the Great Bustard Project. We will hopefully have a chance to see the birds live, watch the male mating display, (the lek) and have a brief tour of the project facilities. It will be at a cost of £20/person (held to 2023 prices for us). I have set an initial limit of 12 persons.

Arrival at Enford - see later - by 10.30am.

It will require own transport to the site. Travel to Enford will take about 1 hour.

I will scout a pub that we could have a bite to eat for lunch post the visit.

The full instructions from the project are imported later. Key things binoculars and cameras and rough terrain footwear and of course coats if wet.
Outing 2 Event RNLI Headquarters & Training - Poole
Date Tuesday, 18 June 2024
Description This is a joint trip with our Yeovil Probus friends.

In discussion with Yeovil we have now closed this as it is agreed we will be using this as a partners and members outing.

I will be now be writing to all those who have signed-up to ensure they know they can now bring their partner.

Teething issues on this first joint trip, however the level of interest for a partners invitation is such we are going to see how this works.

Apologies to any members looking to book.

(Existing member only sign-ups I have accommodated)

Thank you all for your understanding.
