SCD CLUBS
& GROUPS IN FRANCE.

Below are
details of clubs with secretaries/contacts.
Visitors are welcome everywhere, but it is wise to check first,
as some groups stop meeting when schools are on holiday.
Les visiteurs sont partout les bienvenus, mais contactez un responsable d'abord,
car les activités sont souvent interrrompues pendant les vacances scolaires.
