In recent years, there has been an anniversary event held at the Rising Sun, Epsom,
where the Society was founded, on the nearest Sunday to the Founding day, 6 December.
There has been a proposal that, for the 60th Anniversary, the event should be held on 6
December, which is a Wednesday. However, this may be inconvenient for members from
outside London who would be interested in attending.
If you are likely to attend the Anniversary gathering, could you please let us know if you
would prefer Sunday (December, 3rd 12 noon onwards) or Wednesday (6 December, 6pm
onwards).
Please contact Roger [editor@spbw.beer; mob 07854 387069] with your preferred option
by 23 March.
If we go for the Sunday option, there may well be an additional event in Central London on
the Wednesday.

WOODFEST 2023 (WF4)
The fourth SPBW WoodFest will be held from 11 – 13 May at Egham United Services Club, 111 Spring Rise, Egham, Surrey TW20 9PE.
EUSC is well known to aficionados of good ale for its regular beer festivals. It’s less than half a mile from Egham rail station (Waterloo – Reading line).
Details of opening times, admission prices etc will be on our website as soon as possible, or contact wf3treasurer@yahoo.com.
We need volunteers to staff the festival as well as help with the set-up from Monday to Wednesday (8th – 10th) and the take-down on the Sunday after the festival. Anyone interested in helping, please contact Angela Aspin, who handles the volunteering, at angelajaspin@manx.net.
We had originally planned to return to the Turk’s Head for WF4 but a rugby match at nearby Twickenham made this unavailable.
