LUUMC News


Sunday, 4 October 2009

Hey guys,

The leviathan which is LUUMC is lumbering on and as such we’ve got some news to share with you. (Quite a lot of news actually).

First off is the sign up for two trips this Wednesday.

First trip is for Birchem edge. It’s going to be a day trip run next Sunday, it’ll cost £5 and be on a first come first serve basis. Sign up will be at the packhorse. Birchem is a great crag with a load of classic climbs as well as some easy ones for those of you keen to get a first lead in before Northumberland.

Which leads me neatly on to our second trip, Northumberland. Sign up will also be this Wednesday at 9pm in the packhorse. We are driving up to a little hut in the village of Lucker and then spending our time on the sandstone crags of Northumberland. There should be plenty of spaces on this trip and it’s a great weekend away. Both beginners and more experienced members are encouraged to come and the “socialising” on the Saturday night ensures that everyone will have a good time.

The cost of the trip will be £25 which includes all transport, all accommodation, Saturday and Sunday breakfast and Saturday tea. So the only food you have to bring is stuff to make pack ups (Or for you none Yorkshires packed lunches) and some money for the fish and chip stop on Friday night. To be guaranteed a place on this trip you must be a member of the club, this can be done easily at: http://www.leedsuniversityunion.org.uk/clubsandsocieties/outdoor/mountaineering/ you also need to pay the full £25 during sign up – no cash, no place. Simples.

If you are having trouble signing up to the club, get in touch with one of the committee and we’ll guide you through the process.

The reason both trips are being signed up this Wednesday night is because we are having our Otley run the following Wednesday (14th October). The theme for this is anything beginning with the letter L, U,U, M or C. Also make sure you wear a belt with your outfit.

T-shirts are now available for ordering, more details can be found about them here: http://www.luumc.co.uk/messageboard/viewtopic.php?t=679 deadline for ordering is the 21st October. If you want one get in touch with Sean or chat with him down the packhorse.

Also to mention, Andy Cave is giving a lecture. For more info on this check out http://www.luumc.co.uk/messageboard/viewtopic.php?t=692

Finally, if you are over 21, hold a full UK driving license and you’re interested in driving a mini bus for us please get in touch with Sarah our transport sec – Cheers! bs08slr@leeds.ac.uk

There is a lot of info here, thanks for chewing through it all. If you ever lose the e-mail or get confused, it’s all posted up on www.luumc.co.uk and the forums are always swelling with more detailed information.

In summary Birchem trip and Northumberland trip sign up this Wednesday in the packhorse, bring money!
