Penkridge Events Diary |
Please send details of any
event you would like to publicise by email to the Webmaster
(webmaster at penkridge.org.uk) or phone him on 712733,
or leave a note in the
office at Haling Dene. We would suggest you do not publicise ordinary group meetings for your
members, but stick to events where the general public are invited and welcome. You
could be embarrassed if half of Penkridge turn up to a Committee Meeting! And the
webmaster will be embarrassed if he ever gets a date wrong - so please tell me. Please
always check with the organisers of the events, just in case dates have changed
and we haven't been informed - but we will do our best to make sure the information is
accurate and up-to-date.
We would strongly advise all Penkridge organisations to
include their major events in this Diary so that others do not organise an event that may
clash.
