This group needs admin help if it is to continue.
We have a mailing list of around 70 members.
We have several ideas of places to visit in Cambridge and some volunteers willing to lead them.
All we need now is one or two members who could take the bookings and coordinate a programme of activities.
Visits can be every one, two or three months.
Please get in touch if you can help.
After a very well-attended meeting about Hertfordshire Chalk Streams, we have come up with lots of ideas for talks, member-discussions and visits.
To enable this group to take off, we need the help of 2 or 3 people.

Would you like to take part in a performance next year to celebrate 50 years of Tubular Bells?
We need musicians, singers, dancers, stage crew and people who can handle all the organising of a complex performance. This is ambitious but should be great fun if we can do it!
