Committee members in the frame
With over 300 members in the Sutton Coldfield Ramblers Group, it is
important that Committee members are easily identified so that they can
be approached more readily for comments, discussion and feedback.
Therefore, on the Committee webpage, photos are now being attached for
most of the current Committee. The placement of photos will not be fully
completed until after the forthcoming AGM when the Committee for the next year is
confirmed.
A link to the Committee is on the sub menu at the top of each page.

* The Polar jet stream is
a narrow meandering ribbon of
fast-moving air that encircles the mid latitudes at approx 36,000ft above the
earth and is responsible for developing
and driving weather systems across the Atlantic towards Britain. Usually
the jet stream marks the boundary between cold polar air to its north and warmer
air to its south. The position of the jet stream, and particularly whether
it is north or south of Britain, is highly influential on the weather we
receive.
