The Club offers a varied activity program which includes weekend and midweek walks, twilight walks in summer, backpacks, car camps, liloing, still water canoeing, and extended trips in our local region as well as interstate and overseas.
Our regular meetings on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of the month are held at 7.30pm in the Uniting Church Hall, 24 Milson Street, Charlestown and include reports of recent activities and planning for those coming up, guest speakers, supper and a social catch up.
