Galloway Mountaineering Club

Please contact the person who is named if you want to go on the walk.  Please remember that if you end up not going, the Club usually still has to pay for the place booked but not used – so if we can´t fill your place, and someone else wanted it, you may still have to pay.  Please check with the person organizing and offer to pay if necessary.
