2010 Programme – Celebrating the Society's 125th Anniversary The Society celebrates its 125th anniversary in 2010 so we have put together a great programme of lectures, featuring some of our past Thomson medallists and/or topics that the Society has been associated with in the last 25 years. The major trek for the year is in September to Haddon Corner where we will have a joint meeting with the Royal Geographical Society of South Australia, also celebrating its 125th birthday.
