Walking

WE GO WALKING


The walking group
is a friendly mixed group of men and women. Each month we have a short relaxing ramble of 3-4 miles after lunch, normally starting at 14.00 on the third Saturday of the month, and a longer walk of 7-9 miles - but still not tooo strenuous - often with a pub lunch, usually starting at 11.00 on the 1st Sunday.

On the 2nd and 4th Friday evenings from May to early September there are walks starting at 18.30 which are a great way to unwind from the weekly grind. They normally last about 2 hours and usually include a meal at a pub or restaurant afterwards.

Here is a summary of forthcoming walks; members who log in can see all the details and sign up for each walk well down the page after this article.
New feature: you can now offer or request a lift to the start point of certain walks.

Sunday September 5th. Nicholas will lead an all-day walk taking in Cissbury and Chanctonbury Rings.

Friday September 10th. David M will lead the last evening walk of the summer around Climping and Littlehampton.

Saturday September 18th. Tim will lead an afternoon walk in East Sussex.

Regular six-monthly walking weekends are arranged. The forthcoming Autumn one on October 29th/30th near Goodwood in West Sussex is being organised by David M. Previous weekends have been in the Chiltern Hills, the Isle of Purbeck, Battle, Bournemouth, the Isle of Wight, Folkestone, Hindhead, Salisbury, the New Forest, Dieppe, West Sussex and Amsterdam.

BLAGSS at Pride

BLAGSS marched in the parade, wearing our brightly coloured BLAGSS T-Shirts. This year's theme was Pride & (No) Prejudice, so we were be holding masks of well known lesbian and gay athletes who are proud of their sexuality, even in what can be a difficult environment.

We were also in Preston Park, where anyone could find out more about BLAGSS, join or renew their membership and buy a BLAGSS t-shirt, with our traditional Pimms party from 4pm.
