They meet monthly on either the 3rd Saturday or Sunday (alternate) of each month and are asking for additional volunteers to join them. Just bring yourself along with gardening gloves, we supply the tools. No experience needed just a love of the outdoors. Wear old clothes (it can be muddy) walking boots/wellingtons or strong shoes. Bring packed lunch, flask and plenty of water. Sun cream, insect repellents and rain gear. Leave change of clothes in car.
There is usually between 8-12 volunteers out, Mary Neligan is the leader for Saturday August 18. There are plenty of jobs both light and heavy - whatever people are comfortable with.
Meet up on Saturday 18 August @ 10.15 outside Kilbeheny Community Centre (Exit 12 off the M8)

Mountain Skills Success!
Congratulations to the 10 Peaks Club members who successfully completed their Mountain Skills Assessment over the weekend.
They had a very challenging two days on the mountains, plus a night navigation session that kept them out well beyond midnight on the Saturday.
Well done to all concerned, it was a great achievement.
