Hi Everyone,
From now until the new university year we'll be meeting at the Welsh Dragon pub at the top of Courtney Place near the Embassy theatre on Tuesday nights from 7.30pm to enjoy a few beers, catch up and plan some holiday adventures!
So come along tomorrow night to find out about possible tramps and mountain trips this weekend and scheme more for later.
Remember also that there will not be a regular meeting next Tuesday (21) because we have our annual Last Supper dinner, see the post about this here
Cheers,
Alyn
Chief Guide

Hey people,
just to add another election to your already election-filled lives: this Tuesday is the tramping club AGM (Annual General Meeting), where we elect the committee for the coming year!
This is happening tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7.30pm in Meeting Rooms 1 & 2 of the Student Union Building.
More interesting than the US elections, more relevant than ours and with (probably) a higher voter turnout than the VUWSA elections, this will certainly be one you cannot miss! And in case you need any other reasons, there will be free pizza from 6.30pm.
Details on positions available can be found here (from last year) and also presented will be the Chief Guide's, President's and Treasurers' Reports on the year to date.
I would strongly encourage anyone who thinks they might be around next year to come along and help decide who is going to run your club.
Cheers,
Kieran

AGM – is the Annual General Meeting and it is this coming Tuesday! It is the single most important meeting of the year and it is where we decide who is going to run the club next year. So it is important if not essential for everyone to attend. To bribe people a bit more we will have FREE pizza!
See here for details

Hey hey,
just a reminder that the photo comp is tonight! From 7.30pm in meeting rooms 1 & 2 - so far we haven't had all that many entries, so please keep them coming... either email me photos before 5 or bring them along before the meeting on a usb stick, camera or something.
The tramping and rock climbing categories are particularly in need of some more entries. Chocolate, lollies and bottles of stuff are at stake so that should be motivation enough to make an effort. If you don't have photos enter someone elses and claim the chocolate as your own :)
The restriction of 5 photos each may be relaxed too, just so we get a few more.
Cheers,
Kieran

Hey just to let everyone know that Natalie is bringing along some photos tonight from her Antarctica trip last summer - should be interesting viewing, so come along! Meeting Rooms 1 & 2 of the Student Union Building, 7.30pm tonight.
Also if you want to give me photos for the photo comp next week I will have my laptop there, so you can put them straight on rather than mucking round with email...
Cheers,
Kieran

Hey everyone,
as I've mentioned at the last couple of meetings its almost time for our annual photo competition! This will be held at next Tuesday's meeting (30 September), with plenty of good viewing, prizes and prestige to be gained!
Please submit entries to me (at patonomatic@gmail.com) by this Friday, maximum of 5 per person. Also please state which of the following categories you wish to submit your photo(s) in:
- Tramping
- Alpine activities
- Rock climbing
- Nature
- People doing crazy/stupid/embarassing things (ie humour)
For the purposes of identification and organising, it would be helpful if you renamed the photos to include your name and a (very) brief description.
Cheers,
Kieran

Hey everyone,
Just a reminder that its uni holidays now and we'll be meeting at the pub for the next two weeks instead of up at uni. So come along to the Welsh Dragon Bar (end of courtney place near Embassy) from 7.30pm this Tuesday and next to enjoy a few beers, catch up and plan some holiday adventures!
Sounds like theres plenty of scheming about ski trips (once they've unburied the lifts up there anyway) and other plans to climb mountains, tramp... there's no official club trip down for this weekend, but if you want to do something then come along and convince people to come with you :)
Cheers,
Kieran
