Clicking on one of the links below will open the relevant site on a new tab. The links above-right show all of the main pages within this site other than the Speakers page (and its Technical Support offshoot), the Directions page, and the lead Gallery page. That last page leads to a number of 'photo pages', some of which show different areas of this beautiful part of the country, others of which were taken on various of the Club's Outings/Activities.
If there is a site you think we should include below, feel free to contact our Webmaster (or any other member of the Committee) and advise him of the relevant details and he will look into the matter. However, please note that we will not try to include every possible site of interest not least because, as shown below, there are already other sites that provide information about the region.

The site contains some information that people who are new to the area may find useful. |
