Yes! Summer is finally here!

We will not be holding our usual monthly General Meetings in July and August but many of our Activity Groups have events scheduled during the summer as well as in September. So, do give your Newsletter a good read and find out what’s out there for those of us who are not planning trips out of the country just yet.

And, of course, there are the exciting highlights of “The London Season”! The English summer features some of the biggest must-do events, such as the Wimbledon Tennis Championships, the glamorous Henley Regatta (see page 7 for details), and the Glyndebourne Opera Festival. It will be a glorious time for cool Pimms cocktails and scrumptious strawberries and cream, chic hats and elegant picnics.

We’ll see you at the first General Meeting of the 2009-10 KCWC Activity Year on

Thursday 17 September 2009
from 9:30 a.m. – 12 noon
at the Royal Geographical Society, 1 Kensington Gore, London SW7 5HS.

This will be a “Socials and Signing Up” coffee morning – an excellent opportunity to catch up with old friends or meet new ones. Bring along a friend or a neighbour to show them what you are up to all year! Learn what activities are on offer for Autumn and winter. We now have almost 30 activity groups you can enjoy so you can make the most of living in this wonderful city!
