Hello Folks
I hope you are all keeping well and enjoying the glorious sunshine. For any Stars Wars fans, may the fourth be with you…!
We have a GRES takeover for our scheduled GRES meetings coming up in May, as follows:
Tuesday 6th – At last, it’s me leading the meeting with my long-promised PEP talk. I’m not going to tell you that it will be an interesting or exciting evening, as modesty forbids, but it does include a few stories and will be delivered in my own personal way! So, please join me at our usual venue of the Emmanuel Church Hall, 55 Windmill Street, Gravesend (from 7.45pm).
Thursday 22nd – Bob Poole will be informing us about the Midland & Great Northern Railway, delivered in his usual style that has attention to detail. This will take place at our usual venue of the Emmanuel Church Hall, 55 Windmill Street, Gravesend (from 7.45pm).
For those who like their model railway exhibitions, please note:
Saturday 10th – Birchington Model Railway Exhibition, The Centre, Alpha Road, Birchington, CT7 9EG (10am – 4pm). Adults – £5, Accompanied Under 16s – free.
Saturday 25th – Billericay Model Railway Exhibition, Hannakins Farm Community Centre, Rosebay Avenue, Billericay, CM12 0XP (10am – 4pm). Adults – £5.00, Concessions – £4.50, Under 18s – £3.00, Family – £13.00.
Further GRES dates for your diaries:
Sunday 22nd June – GRES Family Day at the Higham Memorial Hall, School Lane, Higham, Rochester, Kent, ME3 7JL (10am – 4pm). Entrance will be free while refreshments and snacks will be available at keen prices.
Saturday 28th June – GRES Annual Outing to the Great Central Railway. The Society will pay for the coach, GRES members and family will be charged just £25 each – a bargain for such a day out.
I look forward to seeing many of you on Tuesday and later this month. Please ask if you have any questions.
Regards
George Marcar (for GRES Committee)
