How old are we exactly?
« on: November 22, 2024, 02:26:37 PM »
When was our club officially formed? I'm seeing different dates and am now confused. March or November 1874?

Probably neither. 21st November 1874 is just an arbitry date which appears to have starting being used in the last 20 years. Dave W is far more knowledgeable on this subject though.
