SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
In addition to the monthly programme of talks the Club has throughout its history enjoyed a varied programme of social visits to interesting places. These have included in the past Dublin, Amsterdam, Beaulieu, and Bateman's, Rudyard Kipling's House, Ham Lands, RAF Museum at Hendon and Kensal Green Cemetery Future visits in 2012 are planned for the Law Courts and Finchcock's Manor, including the Musical Museum among others.
All events result from the careful and time consuming work of our Speakers' Secretary and by our Social Sub-Committee who produce an excellent and varied programme which is enjoyed by all.
