Our Tulbagh weekend is coming closer

Weekend outings are among the highlights of the
club's activities for a good reason. It is during these
early morning or late afternoon shoots interspersed
with socialising around a braai or in a restaurant that
members truly become friends. We would therefore
especially like to encourage our newer members to
join us on our weekend outing to Tulbagh.

When: Friday 13 to Sunday 15 September 2024
