Welcome to our 20th Members' Weekend
An Event To Celebrate
This year is a very
special year for the AAGB as 2004 will be our 20th weekend. Some
of us will remember every one and I am sure there will be a healthy dose of
reminiscing and story telling especially when the photos start circulating.
Once
again our event will take place at Halifax Hall. Accommodation is clean and
basic but the welcome is very warm and the food is excellent. Anyone (members
only of course) staying overnight will receive a subsidy from the AAGB of £10
per night. Please note we will not be able to purchase individual meals from the
server on Saturday lunch as the students will have already left for the summer
break.
Thank you to all who make this weekend possible. Have a safe journey and see you there.
Best wishes,
Chris
Chris Clark
