We had a brilliant day today on Day 3 of both camps - some photos below
See you all tomorrow!
Please note that with indoor restrictions - rain is not our friend this week - and we'll make a call on whether to abandon the day as early as possible - to give you plenty of time. Note if any of this weeks days are abandoned - we'll make it up to you during our Club Camp in August - but fingers crossed the rain will stay away!
