Lymm Baptist Church Walking Group

April 1994    Morecambe Bay 2000

July 1998 - passing refreshments!    September 1998 - I've been looking forward to this all morning!

The Lymm Baptist Church Walking Group have regular monthly walks throughout most of the year, usually on the first Saturday in the month.

We walk whatever the weather, be in sun or snow (see pictures!!)...we smile at the start and look longingly as we pass refreshment (Note that walking group leader Mike Cram is the one stopped outside the pub!).

Some walks are for beginners while others can be more strenuous.

Visitors are always welcome.

For further information contact Mike Cram via the Church Office.
