ANNUAL EVENTS
In addition to the monthly Brew With A View events there are a number of other events held annually by the Jurassic Parkinsons
TEAM EXTREME DAY OUT
A team day out grabbing as many 5/5's in a day as possible.
I figured that we stood more chance of successfully achieving 10 x 5/5's in a day if we were part of a team. The last 2 years have been successful trips, where both years we found the required 10 x 5/5's in a day. They have both been great days out with everyone contributing in some way or another, then finish the day with an event.
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM (NEW for 2014)
A Rememberence Sunday Event
This event will be held at the crash site of an American Super Fortress on Bleaklow on Rememberence Sunday. The local scouts and Royal British Legion hold their own event here every year.
