The next BMC Peak Area meeting will take place on the 8th February 2012, at The Maynard Arms Hotel, Grindleford, everyone welcome. The Maynard is served well by bus and train.
Please see the agenda for the meeting at:
http://community.thebmc.co.uk/Event.aspx?id=716
We plan to start promptly at 7.30pm so please get there early to get your beer in. The bar in the meeting room will be staffed throughout the meeting for top ups.
The main body of the meeting will be taken up with a Q&A session with Jon Stewart from the National Trust and Danny Udall from the Eastern Moors Partnership.
Topics to be covered include:
· progress on the Eastern Moors Partnership (EMP)
· future proposals for joint working between the BMC and National Trust (NT) on Stanage North Lees
· the Sheffield Moors Partnership Proposal
· the Nature Improvement Area proposal covering the Dark Peak area from Longdendale to Eastern Moors.
This is an extremely important and unique opportunity for the BMC to be able to have this discourse and audience with representatives with the EMP and NT at a local Area Meeting and your participation and input would indeed be valued.
We really do appreciate the time taken by the representatives of both bodies in giving their time to take questions from both our members and interested parties.
After the rest of the normal business in the meeting and the usual Chips & Butties, BMC Guide photographer Supremo Mike Hutton will be giving a talk and slideshow on what’s involved to get that ultimate shot, “3-years in the Life of a Climbing Photographer”.
Hope to see you on the 8th Feb, again it's going to be a very important and informative evening, if the last few meets are anything to go by, we will need to order more butties - no bad thing!
Cheers
Simon
