Enjoy some chilled beach time together before the beautiful weather disappears. They are just meeting at Castor Bay Beach, bring your own picnic and beach things etc. JETAA will provide limited refreshments. Long term weather forecast doesn’t look too bad but watch this space for any changes.
RSVP: If you can, just drop JETAA a line to say you’d like to go along – just to get an idea of numbers for the refreshments and also so that they can organise a few games.
