TAARC Xmas Social December 2016

Posted on 21 December 2016 By Pete M0PSX 1 Comment on TAARC Xmas Social December 2016

The Thurrock Acorns ARC wrapped up a busy 2016 with a social get-together at their club venue in Grays on Tuesday the 20th of December.

On offer, food, drink and the chance for a good old catch-up with other club members.

Great to see such a good turnout. Nice to catch up with Ricky M6DII (who’s not been on air much of late), as well as Louis (the club’s youngest member) with mum Paula, who kindly took the following snapshot:

Thanks to the team at TAARC for the excellent social event, and the fine collection of tasty treats. Let’s hope next year as another cracker for the Acorns!
