In reply to Team BMC:

Since the newsletter was produced, Henry says there's been an important update on the situation at Stanage. Come along to the meeting to hear all about it.

In reply to Moff:

Steve's talk was well worth it. Quite impressed nearly 40 folk braved the road conditions in all that snow.

The extra Stanage news was we almost lost the campsite but for strong lobbying from the BMC access workers and other interested parties. the officers working for the Peak Park on Stanage seem to be listening but some of the commitees above them and the leadership still seem detached from the idea that these areas were gifted to the park partly for their recreational benefits and the campsite is a key part of that for some.
