We are having our summer social gathering for 2025 as a picnic dinner at Stanage Popular. We'll be holding the picnic on top of Stanage Edge (the popular end) for easy access for bringing food/drinks up to the crag. The plan is to go climbing, walking, cycling during the day on Saturday (climbing will be at Stanage Popular). Then we will gather on top of the crag at 6:00pm for a picnic dinner, bring your own food/drinks.
For those that want to make a weekend of it some club members are planning to stay overnight in the Peak. Campsites are available and we have a few club members who live in the Peak and maybe able to offer a place to stay if you ask nicely!

On the 12th/13th July we have the return of our weekend dedicated to the lake just a stones throw from our club hut, Llyn Padarn. The Love The Lake is a club meet for activities in and on Llyn Padarn and perhaps an opportunity to try something new. Swimming, kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, and your chance to compete in the annual Bowline Slate Skimming Contest!
Book your place now by contacting the hut bookings secretary as normal - hutbookings@bowlineclimbingclub.co.uk.
We ideally need plenty of watercraft for this weekend so if you have (or can borrow) a paddleboard, kayak, canoe, etc please do so and bring it along. Don't forget to bring safety equipment (bouyancy aids, helmets, wetsuits, throw line, etc). If you don't have any watercraft or associated equipment get in touch with others that are going via WhatsApp. Or contact the meet leader via email/WhatsApp.
