BRANCH SOCIAL – SATURDAY AUGUST 5TH
This will be the last time that I will be organising the social to give somebody else a chance.
Venue: Marsden Golf Club Mount Road, Marsden HD7 6NN
Time: 12:30 for 13:00
There will be a buffet lunch and a bar.
Walk: For those who like to work up an appetite I shall lead a stroll of around 4 miles from St Bartholomew’s Church in Marsden (HD7 6DJ) leaving at 10:00. Meet at the main gate into the churchyard on Church Lane. Find your own parking in Marsden which isn’t too difficult.
Please let me know if you intend joining us by Monday 31st July as I need to let the caterers know numbers.  Thank you   Chris
