The club has booked two Sunday Members Workdays

The club has booked two Sunday Members Workdays, one in August and one in early October to allow a larger space and longer hours to that available on normal club nights.
Additionally the club has 4 Friday evenings in August to use the hall as well as the committee room to work on layouts during normal club hours.
The main work will be on Friedrichstrasse, but the later October Workday will be used as a general preparation for our Open Day.
Please note none of these sessions are open to visitors.
