We are holding the SCSA Paper Aeroplane competition on Wednesday 15th January 2014 at 8:00pm in the bar at the BGGC Nympsfield.
Please join us for a bit of fun trying to out-fly the competitors. There is a trophy, awarded to the winner, to hold for a year.

If you haven't renewed your membership, now is a good time to do it, your 3rd party insurance cover will have lapsed too, so come along and re-join and take part in the Paper Aeroplane Competition.

On Sunday 19th January we are holding the postponed Boxing-day Pylon Race on the windward slope 9:30am for a 10:00am start. Please come and take part or help with the flag waving and timing. Pete Wolfenden is running the comp. and there is a Tankard to hold for a year to be awarded to the winner.
