Members Page

This page and its linked items provide additional information for members of the Stone group and others particularly in the process of preparing programmes and leading walks.


Winter 2008-2009 Programme.

Offerings are now being sought for the Winter 2008-2009 Programme. Responses are requested by Monday 21st July at the latest. The On-Line Response Form may be used for your suggestions to the committee.

Events that you need to book. 

We often need to confirm arrangements well before the actual event! Please help the organizer by BOOKING EARLY, and certainly no later than any closing date indicated. Places will always be allocated on a first come first served basis. Cancellation may occur if numbers are not viable. Further details can be obtained from the leader. 

Photo Gallery. 

Colin Day has placed a number of photographs that may be of interest to members of the group. These are viewable on the flickr photos site.  

Belfort Twinning.  

Talk to Jim, Viola, Geoff, Margaret, Dorothy, Norman, Gerald or Audrey about our visit to Belfort, the Alsace, the Vosges and the Jura. We had super hospitality from the very friendly Belfort group with very interesting and beautiful walks. We hope to develop further our friendship with the group and we urge members to get involved.

Planning Walks.  

For the latest state of play on countryside access see www.countrysideaccess.gov.uk If you are planning on leading a walk or similar activity see Leaders' Guidance Notes. and Insurance, Mountain Safety and Finances. Note: the RA insurance no longer covers mountain walking which requires equipment such as ice axes, crampons, ropes and other climbing aids.

Footpaths and Rights of Way Issues.  

Queries or comments relating to local footpaths may be addressed to the local footpath secretary if known, or to Gerald who will deal with or pass on as appropriate.

Advertisments.

Support our sponsors! - see Goods and Services.

It is possible to include modest amounts of advertising which will go out with the 6 monthly printed programme and be included on the Goods and Services page. Advertising should be linked to health issues or objects associated with an active life style or walking.

Advertisers are responsible for the service or goods they advertise. Advertisers should indicate any training, qualification or experience they have for the service offered where this is important. We reserve the right to refuse advertisements. There will be a charge, club members reduced rate, minimum £10. Sale items would be charged 10% of the advertised value. Simple text adverts, or a link to an advertiser's site, will be included on our Goods and Services page. For a small additional charge, depending on complexity, more elaborate web pages can be designed and included on the Stone Ramblers site or advertiser's own material can be incorporated.
