Out N About

The Silent Valley

Out N About, Northern Ireland's gay walking & hiking group, have been continuing their 2003 walking season with a very successful Belfast Pride walk event through Lagan Valley regional park on Sunday 27th July.

Here's Neil with details of the group's next event on Sunday 28th September:

Hello folks

The summer is coming to an end - but we are still going to have another couple of walks before we quit for 2003.

This month's walk will be the Hare's Gap walk in the Mournes and there will be another walk in October. That will be the last walk of the year, but we will probably organise a social event for November.

Anyway - the details of this month's event are as follows:
DATE: Sunday 28th September
MEETING TIME: 10:45
MEETING LOCATION: Kube /Parliament Car park.
WALK ROUTE: Hare's Gap (The Mournes)
DIFFICULTY: Not too bad - although it is more difficult if there has been a lot of rain.
DURATION: 3 - 3.5 hours
EQUIPMENT: Good walking boots are a must for this one. The route can be fairly rocky and so you need good support for your ankles. Waterproofs and warm clothes are also essential. Also bring a packed lunch.

If anyone needs more details - then let me know and I'll get back to you ASAP. Looking forward to seeing you on the 28th.

All the Best for Now

Neil

Neil, the organiser of Out N About, is currently looking for someone willing to help out with the planning, recce-ing and leadership of new walking events. It would probably involve an informal planning meeting once every few months, obviously in addition to assistance at the walks themselves.  Interested? Contact Neil at out_n_about_ni@yahoo.co.uk.

Nite on Botanic
