Gerrards Cross Summer School 2010

at The Memorial Centre, East Common

July 26 to August 6

This is the twenty seventh year of the Summer School and we look forward to welcoming former students and meeting many new ones. If you have not been before, you will find it very friendly and our tutors of a high standard.

The Organisers are all volunteers. It is our intention to provide first-class courses with efficient administration. If you have any queries please telephone the Memorial Centre (01753) 883759. However, it should be noted that the Office cannot deal with enrolments.

It is never too early to book! Enrolments are taken as soon as the brochures are available and many courses get booked up very quickly.

We are most grateful to Colin Buchanan who audits the accounts.
