Week Commencing 14th August 2017

Nordic Walking week commencing 14th August, 2017

Hi Nordic Walkers,

A mixed bag of weather this past week and with Wednesday a complete washout; there was no avoiding the ironing! The POP UP walk was a real treat and Rachel took us her new way back to Cranfield which was amazing. Nice to have some of the Newbies come along and enjoy the walk. Thanks to all of you who came along.

NORDIC SOCIAL

We are having our Monte’s Tandoori Social in Cranfield on 24th August at 7:30pm. The food is great here and the service, you can also bring your own drinks and there are rumours Bev C is bringing a Magnum of prosecco! If you are interested in joining us for this fun evening, please let me know by 21st August. Thanks.

All evening classes – £5
