Bolton Ramblers Book Club
We are looking into the possibility of setting up a Theatre Club for our members. The idea is that Bolton Ramblers regularly produces a list of plays/shows/musicals in the Greater Manchester area. If sufficient interest is shown, we will book tickets and organise the outing. There is quite a bit of work required in gathering information and in the admin and we would therefore appreciate help. First, we need to establish if there are enough members interested in creating such a club. Assuming there is, we will then sort out preferred days etc. Please email boltonramblers@hotmail.co.uk to express your interest.
You can keep upto date with our current newsletter here. NOT GETTING OUR NEWSLETTERS or EMAILS? Then please check your membership profile by going to the Ramblers website,top of the page select LOGIN, then select MY ACCOUNT, then UPDATE PROFILE and make sure the Group is BOLTON, then UPDATE.

Ordnance Survey Maps on the Ramblers' App
Many members are unaware that you can access Ordnance Survey maps and quickly find both group walks and routes on the Ramblers' App. To do so, follow these instructions:-
1. Download the App from Google Play Store (search for Ramblers App)
2. From the home screen, select 'walking' at the bottom of the page
3. Couple of methods from here. Suggest you select 'led walks'
4. Select my group
5. You will now see a map. Select the icon in the centre top right (looks like two squares on top of each other.)
6. Select Ordnance Survey
7. Press done.
8. If you expand the map by pinch and expand, you will zoom into Ordnance Survey maps
9. Pressing the right-hand symbol that looks like a circle will take you to your location that you can again expand on.
Another very useful feature is to click on the top menu entitled 'list' and you will find a handy way of finding our walks.
