Hello all,

Due to bad weather rock craft 3 as it was to be has been postponed untill next term :(

So the new rock craft plan is meet at Hunter Car park 10am tomorow. Depending on the weather that morning we will either go to Titahi Bay or Hang Dog.

So if you where not able to come on the full trip but are keen for one day or the other thats awesome, drop me a line and show up :)

So incase we go to Titahi Bay, bring warm clothes - including a rain coat, and any climbing gear you have and luch/water/snacks in a bag you can carry and shoes you can walk in (its about a 20min walk over steep/rough ground, so jandals not good!).

Please bring money to pay for hangdog and your VUWTC club card so you get in cheap. I think it cost like $9 without gear, $12 with gear. If you don't have a card please contact me and I can get you one. We will supply people with club gear if possible to keep prices down for every one. Please also bring $5 to give your driver.

Then depending on what happens we may meet up again to do something on Sunday.

Contact me with any questions :)

Have a great day and see you tomorow.

Rock Craft 3 is this weekend!!

This is an instuctional climbing trip designed to cater for all abilities, so if you have never climbed before or are a guru come along! We will be teaching everything from basic climbing skills, to leading, and if people are keen trad climbing!

The plan is to go to Whanganui bay, but if the weather is not good there we might go else where. Will keep you updated!

So the plan is:

Friday :Meet Hunter Car Park 6pm, drive to Whanganui Bay (or where ever we end up going)

Saturday: climbing :)

Sunday: Climbing, returning to Wellington late evening.

Gear:

Pack to walk just incase the road is not driveable

Bring all normal camping gear and climbing gear if you have it

If you don't have climbing gear the club will supply it. Just a quick note here, the club has limited harnesses, so first in first serve, with preference going to those who where on Rock Craft 2, but at the moment lots of room still for more :)

The club also supplies cookers, tents, billies etc

If you don't have rock climbing shoes, tell us what size, and if the club doesn't have any they can be hired from Fergs for $10 per day. Please go down there Wed or another time this week and book and pay for them. we can pick them up friday night.

Cost:

$50 (pay to club) plus bring $10 cash to pay for camping

So if you are keen to come please contact Kate (kate.williman@gmail.com , 021 156 9247)

please tell her:

if you have a car

if you have your own climbing gear
