Default October 2011 Harpenden BVWS Swapmeet date?

Hi,

Has the 2011 October Harpenden Swapmeet been arranged, as I need to do some forward planning for next October, and it would be useful to know the date?

I did look the BVWS site and the Autumn BVWS Magazine but can’t find a date.

Thanks in advance.
Terry.

I cannot add them to the Forum Calendar yet as it does not allow the year 2011 to be selected.

Ian, look at the number of stalls at recent Harpendens and draw your own conclusions. Was reduced from 4 to 3 a few years ago for similar reasons. I do my best to augment the swapmeets with an occasional talk which fills the small hall.

Hi Ian,

Yes only two Harpendens from now on.

March will be the usual swap meeting in the large hall and the AGM and Talk will be held in the small hall.

September will be the usual Swap meeting in the large hall and talk in the small hall.

Both events will have the usual Auction, which will probably be bigger, and you will be able to enter items prior to the day via myself (all explained in the next Bulletin).

Mike...

That's sorted now. You can go right up to 2037 which is the highest it will let me set.

I will try to get them onto the BVWS website over the weekend.
