Dark Peak 50th Anniversary Camping Weekend at Bamford Rec
This is a family camping weekend for everyone from Friday August 14th to Sunday August 16th
Tents and campervans and as many children as you have or can make by then.
Dogs welcome.
There will be a special 50th anniversary mountain marathon type event on the Saturday, and Up The Clough race on Sunday.
Barbeque on Saturday evening, and a beer mile to repeat the horrors of the previous year (top tip, 4 cans of stout don’t make for an easy beer mile)
Lots of scope for training runs and cycle rides.
The Camping weekend has always been one of the highlights of the club year and is great for
getting the spouses and children involved.
