ESSEX AREA WALKS - SPRINGTIME 2007

SATURDAY 5^TH MAY TO SUNDAY 13^TH MAY 2007

Following the pleas issued to all our local groups late last year and contained within the Essex Area Update December 2006 issue and more recent contact with the Groups, we are pleased that we now have sufficient responses to set out below the planned programme of Circular and Figure of Eight Walks for SPRINGTIME 2007. We hope that this information will be available on the Essex Area Website as well as those of our groups who have the technology and we will provide details of any amendments that may be necessary there and on the usual telephone and e-mail contact points.
