<div>Dear SUMC members/alumni/friends, </div><div> </div><div>We have now had our last official climbing session of 2012, but I know you'll all be training really hard over christmas so that you can send even harder routes in the new year! Here's what is coming up this week and after exams next year:</div>
<div> </div><div><strong>Christmas Ball!!! 13th Dec</strong></div><div>You're probably all sick of hearing me go on and on about this, but I just can't curb my excitement! Meet at JC's at 6:30pm on Thursday (even if you haven't got a ticket, come down for a drink and to say goodbye before christmas). The bus will be leaving Fulton House at 7pm prompt, so make sure you're there on time! </div>
<div> </div><div><strong>Refreshers</strong></div><div>As part of "My Week" which runs from the 21st-25th Jan and includes lots of employability workshops and the Varsity launch, we will be running another Give it a Go! session. This will take the form of a normal Thursday (24th Jan) evening at the climbing wall (7-9pm, £1.50) but if you have not yet got round to joining the club, or you have but want to get your mates involved then this is the only time in the semester when you will be able to climb without having paid membership.</div>
<div>We will also be at Refreshers' Fayre on Sat 26th Jan in Fulton House if you want to come by and ask us any questions.</div><div> </div><div><strong>Day Trip</strong></div><div>Our first day trip in the new year will be on Sunday 27th Jan and will be primarily focused on learning to lead trad (as long as the weather is good).</div>
<div> </div><div><strong>Peaks Trip/ BUCS</strong></div><div>The first and last weekend away next semester will be from 22nd-24th February to the Peak District, although we will be staying on the Western side this time. The BUCS teams will also be competing this weekend in Sheffield.</div>
<div> </div><div><strong>El Chorro!</strong></div><div>Our only trip abroad this year will be to Spain in the first week of the Easter holiday. Make sure you save your christmas money/ sell those crappy presents so you can save > £300. Deposits are due to Matt Riordan by Jan 18th and will be roughly £80 (non returnable). You must make sure that you have organised a climbing partner before you pay this. We will be teaching the required techniques to those who wish to go but haven't done that much sport climbing. More details will be released after christmas.</div>
<div> </div><div>Have a wonderful holiday and good luck in your exams!</div><div> </div><div>Charlotte x<br clear="all"></div><div>SUMC Committee<br><br>--<br>Web: <a href="http://www.sumc.org.uk">http://www.sumc.org.uk</a><br>
