Uringa's Christmas/End of Year Party

 Uringa's annual tradition is to hold an end of year party. It includes (in normal times) the President's Cup which in 2022 offered 'huge' and 'enormous' courses with questions to answer for each control location. 

There was much talk and aughter, an array of excellent food, Santa visits, and awards presented. Many thanks to Helen and Matt for again offering their house and garden as the venue.

President Ant Nolan briefs everyone on the President's Cup, before the countdown.








Then it was time for the feast.





And while everyone relaxed after probably eating too much, Santa visited.








And then a few end-of-year words from the club president and announcement of some awards

President's Cup/s On Again

 Jitka Kopriva has been making the President's Cup awards since 1989. The 34th edition mugs were presented last night at the 2022 President's Cup and Uringa Christmas Party. This year's design definitely makes them a one-off collector's item.
