Do not expect National or Olympic champions here, this group is intent on getting fitter whilst having sporting fun. Want to knock some years off come along. Led by Gary Russell and Joan Winkler, the group now meets every Friday of the month at the YMCA between 10 a.m. & 12 noon. Except when the room in the YMCA is booked for something else.
