Weekend Away at Hawes – Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd June 2013

This year the camping, caravanning, B and B weekend away will be in the Yorkshire Dales near Hawes and centred around Shaw Ghyll Farm Camping and Caravan site. The site is just ¾ mile from the Green Dragon pub (good choice of real ales) and 2 miles from Hawes. Cost is approx £5/single tent per nt; £20/caravan. Electrical hook-ups and shower/toilet block available. A £5 deposit will be required from those reserving a place and bookings will close after the club walk on Saturday 23rd February. Shaw Ghyll is a compact site with limited tent space so I’m afraid it will be “first come, first served”. Those wishing to stay B&B or Guesthouse have lots of choices available – in Hawes or Appersett, but they should make their own arrangements. Shared transport available for campers. Deposits to Alan Holmes or Barry Wilkinson as soon as possible please. See this sheet for more information.

Yorkshire Dales, Wensleydale, Saturday 10 December 2011

afwclogo Yorkshire Dales, Wensleydale, Saturday 10 December 2011This is a reminder of the next walk and to provide you with the information sheet. Instructions for booking your place, (if you haven’t already done so), are on the sheet which is attached.

Darkness will descend around 4.00 pm and, besides encouraging walkers to arrive at the finish in good time, this provides us with the opportunity to run a quiz. The end of walk party will be held in the Crown Inn, Askrigg. Sandwiches and chips will be laid on circa 4.30 pm (at a nominal charge per head) and the quiz will follow at approx 5.00 pm. There’ll be prizes for 1st & 2nd placed teams (max 5 per team, please!) and course, the coach will depart promptly at 6.30 pm as usual.

Best wishes,

Barry
