From: lboz@iastate.edu To: mountaineers@iastate.edu Subject: Exciting climbing fun! Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2006 22:34:14 -0500 (CDT) Yes folks that is right this weekend the climbing club is taking it's first official trip to Mississippi Palisades for some toproping and trad instruction for those who feel up to it. The details later but first some important info about the club for this year. Club dues are the same as always 25 for a semester and 45 for a year. Club climbing time at Lied is Sunday nights from 7-9 pm and the bawbequa (barbeque) will be every wednesday, including the upcoming one, at Brookside park from 6-7ish, from there we will be heading to Walnut to do some climbing until 9. P.S. It's bring your own meat and drinks. If you aren't currently a member then join! You get loads of neat stuff like discounts at Jax and Walnut plus the ability to borrow gear, not to mention all the people you'll meet. It's a pretty sweet deal and if you aren't so sure about it come this weekend on our trip to the Palisades. It's in Central Illinois and will be sometime friday evening and returning sometime sunday. There is talk of taking personal vehicles or renting a van depending on the number interested. As of now there are three trips planned for the beginning of this year including this weekend, 9/2 to Devil's Lake, and 9/23 for somewhere unknown. Last thing and most important is the new officers.
