Archived Stories Yet again it has been a busy couple of months for Culm Valley Young Farmers who have certainly not let the recent cold weather get in the way of the busy schedule!

The competitions diary has been full of events with Culm Valley being placed respectively in both the interclub table tennis and badminton. Further fixtures are scheduled with volleyball, hockey and basketball featuring early within the 2010 calendar! Eight members of the club are travelling to Val Thorens in the French Alps along with members from clubs across the region on the annual YFC ski trip - Hopefully the itinerary will not include any trips to A & E!

Thank You
