MEETINGS AND WORK PARTIES

Normally, the Society has a work party every Monday evening from 7:30pm in the Tram Barn (excluding public holidays). There are also regular work parties on Sarturdays.

The Society tries to organise a regular Social Event – normally on the evening of the 3rd Wednesday of every month. Some of these events are held in conjunction with other Societies at Ferrymead. To view future, planned events, please click here.
