Having taken into account the current COVID restrictions that currently apply in the different parts of the UK, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 reunion.
The Chairman Nick Butler will be heading up the Fan at 0930 hrs on Saturday the 15th May and he will lay a BAFC wreath on behalf of the Club at the summit.
He will also toast The Fallen.
If other members wish to make their own pilgrimage up the Fan at their own risk please follow the relevant COVID restrictions that will be in place.
As a Club we are not able to accept liability for members safety and well being over the weekend of 14/15 May. Our Clubs insurance that normally covers Fandance will not operate this year.
Update to follow reference Aldershot 10 Miler on the 20th November 2021.
...........................................................................................................................................................The 10 Miler will be held on w/e Saturday 23rd November 2024..................................................................................................................................
At the outbreak of war Hibbert was under arrest for crashing a car carrying rum rations — he later enjoyed the symmetry of being under arrest on both the day his war started and the day it ended — but was posted with the Expeditionary Force to France. There he commanded a half-battery defending the northern perimeter of Dunkirk for four days before destroying his guns when the ammunition ran out; he was mentioned in despatches. Back in England, Hibbert volunteered for No 2 (Parachute) Commando, with which he did a night jump from a balloon in full mess dress and spurs, only to be reprimanded for appearing late for dinner in torn trousers.
What a bloke.....RIP Sir.
