SoPYC's Online Calendar


In the recent edition of Soundings we introduced the Club's online calendar in case you haven't seen it.

It's on our Club website under "Calendar". It is completely digital and if you select the '+Add All' button, all the events at the Club will be synced with your smart phone or computer's calendar and be updated automatically. This will enable you to see what's happening at the Club even when you are away from home. Give it a try! We hope you like it.
