Hey guys,

Just to let you know that the meeting on Tuesday will be from 8pm, mainly to allow the committee to discuss and organise the start of the tramping year!

Its a busy time of year for us, so if you're new to the club please be patient while we sort ourselves out - we'll be meeting up at uni from 4 March and will be taking membership, having regular trips and doing more than just beer drinking at the meetings on Tuesdays (though we'll be doing that as well)!

If you're not new (or if you are and are exceptionally keen) there's lots of things you can do to help out the club at this time:

Clubs days

This is where we get to promote the club to all the students milling round with nothing to do in the first week of lectures! So need lots of volunteers (ie all you students out there) to man the stalls, setup, take membership, etc.

They're on 27th, 28th (at Kelburn campus) and 29th (Pipitea) of February from 10am - 2pm. Thats Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of next week so if you can help out any of those times let Sarah know (milsa689@xtra.co.nz).

Postering

Another aspect of publicity is sticking up posters - at the various uni campuses, your workplace, flat, hostel or whereever. We'll let you know when these are ready.

Calendar

Any last minute suggestions for official tramps or other activities for the tramping year can be forwarded to Alyn (Alyn.Higgins@hanz.org.nz) or posted here.

Freshers

We'll need lots of leaders for the first trip of the year - a good chance to get into leading and organising a group, as its a nice easy, laidback social trip with lots of people round. You don't have to do much, just make sure your group turns up, sort out a dinner and follow the horde!

Its on the weekend of 8-9 March, so let Alyn know if you're interested.

Cheers thats all for now,
