Welcome to the Plym Ramblers Social Events
Below you will find the events we organise each year.
More information will appear close to the date of an event.
All events have a charge to cover our costs.
Enjoy!!
JANUARYGAMES EVENING A great evening activity which, fortunately, takes place indoors. There are a dozen or more table games of skill to have a go at. Nothing complicated but can be slightly competitive. Using dexterity, a good eye and a sense of humour. |
FEBRUARYSKITTLES EVENING This is a good participation meeting where you enjoy the company of others whilst trying to bowl wooden balls to hit wooden skittles. The evening includes a basket meal at the Westward Inn in Lee Mill. |
MARCHQUIZ NIGHT A very popular quiz night on general knowledge with some local questions. Organised by Laurence and Blodwen with their special audio visual show. Everyone gathers in teams and the winners at the end get a box of smarties (or the equivalent). Those attending will bring a pot luck supper. |

JUNEANNUAL TREASURE This ever popular treasure hunt is on foot and takes place at various venues within 20 miles of Plymouth. The hunt lasts about 2 to 3 hours and can be done by anyone over 10 years. At the end of each hunt the group meets in a local pub and over lunch we announce the winners.

JULYANNUAL BARBECUE This is an afternoon activity starting with a walk and concluding with a well-earned barbecue. The walk starts at 2pm and the barbecue at 5pm. This event always takes place by a village hall in various locations so that when we return from the walk we can use the hall facilities. If the weather is unsuitable for outside we can move into the hall. |
SEPTEMBERANNUAL TRIP A day out with walk options, usually using public transport. |
OCTOBERAUTUMN RESIDENTIAL HOLIDAY This year it's a trip to St Ives from the 22nd to the 25th October, with walks every day and visits to local events. The balance for this holiday must be paid.

The walks range from 3 to 8 miles. The clue is in the GENTLE guided walks.
