Profile
Hornby Club, situated on the southwest fringe
of Christchurch City at the Hornby Domain is a small club by
city standards with some 18 members. It has a relaxed rural
atmosphere and very much a DIY culture. While it is competitive
in that it participates in the Provincial tournaments it believes
that there is more to a sporting club than competition. It recognises
that the health and social benefits and the fun ro be derived
from communal activities are of the utmost importance and are
to be fostered.
Subscriptions compare more than favourably with most other outdoor
sports and Hornby Club gives a concession when two members of
a family are club members.
Spectators and prospective members are always welcome.

12.30.
