Indoor Meetings for 2010:
You are welcome to join us for our indoor meeting program. Tuesday evenings are aimed at those with some bird watching experience who wish to improve their skills whilst Wednesday evenings are for beginners. The classes are led by enthusiasts Mike Briggs, Dave Kirkaldie and Pete Findley.
The evenings are structured so that it is not necessary to attend every week; you can pick and choose which evenings you come along and can mix coming on a Tuesday or a Wednesday evening.
The evening starts at 7.30 and ends at 9.30 with free refreshments at about half time.
The cost is £2.50 for members and £3.50 for non-members.
We look forward to seeing you there!
