Geography Newsletter

The first issue of the Geography Newsletter (which turned out into GA News), was typewritten and with a red heading, and was published from 343 Fulwood Road in February 1978, with an editorial by Tom Randle.

This came out at intervals for some years afterwards.
Tom Randle was also mentioned in a letter from a Past President loaned to me by Chris Kington.

Updates of GA activities were included along with other news.

Here's the first issue.

1987: Tom Randle

This blog started with the idea of creating biographies of each Past President to help capture their contributions. Over the years, it will also continue to share stories of individuals connected to the GA in numerous ways. The strength of the GA is in the contributions of so many people.

I'd like to include a mention of Tom Randle, who contributed a great deal. He was never President, but the GA only works because of the background work of people like Tom.
He sadly died in 1987.
