Hi gang, welcome back, hope your easter break was a good one and you got lots of climbing done!<br><br>As most of you will be heading back to Swansea this weekend its probably a good idea to give you a climbing forecast as to whats in store for the final term. Lets start with the easy stuff...<br>
<br><br>
<u><b>AGM!!!</b></u><br>
The most important part of the SUMC calendar is the Annual General
Meeting of the club. If you have an interest in staying in the club (ie
we've not scared you enough) then you should DEFINITELY attend this.
While the committee make decisions every week, this is YOUR opportunity
to have your say in certain matters of the club next year, including
whos running it. That also brings me nicely onto candidate positions
next year...<br>
<br>
I sent out an E-mail before Easter with job descriptions on the
committee positions. Now is the time to start seriously considering if
you want one and if you do, best get writing your election plea!
Remember candidates are voted in by aptitude, not popularity!<br><br><u><b>Twighlight climbing</b></u><br>Thursday night uni wall sessions will begin once more on the 26th April (this Thursday) same price of £1.50, same time of 7:00pm<br>
<br>Monday nights will be changing slightly. As people are becoming more and more busy with deadlines its understandable that numbers heading to dynamic rock will drop. If we were to keep booking coaches that would be sparsely filled then we'd lose a SHED load of money. Hence although Monday nights will continue, they will only do so if there are car drivers with spare seats. This is probably best organised through the facebook group, or if people prefer I can open Monday night sign up sheets for the next couple of weeks so car drivers and people wanting lifts can say so there. If you guys want the latter ping me an E-mail and I'll make it so.<br>
<br><u><b>Outside climbing</b></u><br>Weather is (hopefully) improving now so those of you with the equipment should be able to grab a few routes after uni on some days! If you want advice on where to go for whatever route/problem style give the committee and E-mail or a message on the facebook group - plenty of advice available.<br>
<br>As for organised trips, the first will be to <b>Trebanog</b> on <b>Saturday the 28th April.</b> Trebanog is a fantastic crag...OK im lying, its pretty grim but the climbing is excellent and well worth braving the locals for. Trip cost will be <b>£5</b> and based on how many car drivers we have in attendance. I'll open the sign up sheet on Monday morning about 10ish. Kit list wise you should know the drill by now:<br>
