2019 Visits to Ripon

Webmaster

The annual two visits to Ripon were well supported by 24 people in April/ May and 18 in October. The format for each visit is as much croquet as anyone wants to play over the visit, on flat lawns with short grass (a little muddy in October), lots of laughter and camaraderie, and a very pleasant evening meal at a local Italian restaurant.

Ripon in October, cool but dry – most of the time.
Did Peter run the hoop?
