Lymm Baptist Church Walking Group


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.
