After putting many weird and wonderful options for our Summer Social to the vote we hosted an evening to really remember this year! A large group of us met in the Goyt Valley late at night for a moonlight walk up to the spooky ruins of Errwood Hall - we even had a talk about the history of the area courtesy of Jane, Mrs MileShy herself. After returning to base we had the most amazing and informative stargazing talk from MileShy Wythenshawe runner Kyle who is also part of Wythenshawe Stargazers. We were SO lucky to have had such a clear night - we saw the moon rise, identified satellites passing overhead and even saw the rings of Saturn through a telescope. We can't thank Kyle enough for giving up his time - we were fascinated and learnt so much! You can see our video from the evening HERE.

The moonlight walk wasn’t our only venture into the Goyt Valley this month - we also took our Old Trafford walkers there for what has turned into their annual trip to the Peak District! The weather was not as good that day out but it definitely didn’t dampen our walker’s spirits - for some of them it was their first venture into the countryside and they were amazed by the views.
