The Calendar And Events

[adrianchew]

Many of you may not realize we have an ongoing calendar. I've been trying to add info that people post here for big enough events onto the calendar which you can always call up using the Calendar option on the top right of your screen.

Here's a link to it...

If you see major omissions, its possibly because I didn't get that far ahead in time yet - its not 100% but will be close soon hopefully.

Info overload! 8O

Hang on - the calendar takes some work! I'll try!

[Mrs Redboots]

When you recover from information overload, a couple of international adult events worth noting:

2nd Dune of Flanders Cup, 6-8 December 2002

5th Mountain Cup, 30 May-1 June 2003

Both events are preceded by a 3-day training camp. May as well contact me in the first instance, and I'll pass you on to the relevant person.
