This month’s walk

Shirley’s walk this month is actually before our monthly meeting, so I thought you’d all like a reminder!

The walk is 5 1/2 miles long and will take in Wheal Prosper mine and Rinsey Head on Wednesday 15 October.

September walk

Our monthly walks are a great chance to get a bit of exercise, take in some gorgeous scenery and get to know other WI members outside our monthly meetings!

If you’d like to go on this walk or any future walks, contact Shirley Battle on (01736) 741324 or by email at grumpi@tiscali.co.uk.

July’s Walk

Pat Gloyn will be leading our walk this month, as Shirley is on holiday. The walk will be on Tuesday the 22nd of July, instead of the usual Wednesday.

Pat has done a recce of the walk and it sounds brilliant! You’ll be heading from the back of St Just across the fields and valleys to Botallack, along the cliffs above the Botallack Crowns to the back of Cape Cornwall and finally up into St Just.  The walk is suitable for dogs.

Members can either bring a picnic lunch with them or have a drink, etc. in St Just. Pat will clarify all the details at our meeting next Monday.

The walk will begin promptly at 10am from the free car park in St Just. It will take about 3 hours at a reasonable rate to take in all the areas of interest along the way.  Sun hats are advised if it’s a sunny day! If the weather is appalling, Pat will ring those interested to cancel as it’s not a suitable walk for bad weather.

If you’re interested, either speak to Pat at Monday’s meeting or drop us an email on crowlasludgvanwi@gmail.com. Please note that the walk will be on Tuesday this month, and not on Wednesday.

Upcoming walk

widemouth bayThis Wednesday, the 18th, Shirley Battle will be leading a very special walk around Widemouth Bay, Bude and Bude Canal.

The drive to and from the walk is about 1 1/2 hours each way, and the walk itself will take 3 1/2 hours (approximately 5 miles), so be prepared to be out most of the day.

If you’d like to go, please contact Shirley on 741324 or by email on grumpi@tiscali.co.uk. Car sharing will be vital for this walk, so she’ll need a list of people in order to organise lifts.

Shirley will be away in July so we’re looking for someone who’d like to volunteer to lead July’s walk. If you’d like to, please let Shirley know!
