Wessex Old Warwickians BBQ, Saturday 31 May

Mike Huntley (WS 1962-69) and wife Anne kindly invited Wessex Old Warwickians (WOW) to a BBQ at their home in a village just outside Salisbury for this year's summer gathering.

Wessex Old Warwickians was formed from a conversation in 2019 between Tim Harry (WS 1963-73) and Mike Huntley (WS 1962-69) who discovered they both lived in the South West. They speculated about how many other OWs might live in the realm of "Wessex" and whether there was any mileage in organising regional get-togethers as "WOW" or Wessex Old Warwickians.

The first WOW gathering was a BBQ at Mike’s house and, since then, successful WOW gatherings have been held in Shaftesbury, Sherborne, Winchester, Marlborough, Salisbury and, most recently, Sparkford. The meet-ups have been organised by different OWs on their home patch. Whether you have been to a WOW gathering before or not, these gatherings are always welcoming, friendly and convivial occasions.
