Minutes for Meeting of 01-29-97

 
Hi Ramblers!! 
 
To all new members: 
 
The Ramblers' Hiking Club is a non-profit organization.  We do all sorts 
of things from hikes and backpacks to community services!  There are no 
dues and everyone is invited to attend the meetings.  In general, all 
hikes meet in the parking lot behind the Park Student Center and all 
meetings are held near the Cactus Lounge in the Memorial Student Union. 
Hikes are also ranked on a scale of (A,B,C) where C is for wimps.

Hi everyone!! 
I hope you're having a great semester so far!  I think the first thing to 
announce is the occupation of the VP chair by William A. Frobe. 
Congratulations, Will!  Will now has the distinctive honor of wielding the 
chalk during the meetings :-) 
 
Past Hikes====== 
This past weekend there were two scheduled hikes.  The first went to Pima 
Canyon.  Ron, Ross, and Chris left Friday for this hike and described it 
as a "too fast". 
 
On Sunday there was a hike to Wasson Peak which, aside from the morning 
drizzle and overcast sky, was really a good hike.  Five people went on 
this hike. 
 
Erich went on a Saturday hike to the Catalinas (to Miguel Peak??). 
 
++Upcoming Hikes+++++++++ 
 
This Sunday, Loretta is leading a MyStErY HiKe  !!  This hike will meet 
Feb 2nd, 10am, at the PSC and is rated a 'C'.  You may want to carry the

        Comfortable clothes

+||+||+||  Other really important stuff! 
 
Thursday the 30th, Loretta will have a movie night (First Wives Club). 
Meet@ 7:15 in front of the gallagher theater.  Entrance fee=$2.50 
 
At the next meeting, Loretta and Erich will have a slide show of their 
trip to Australia! 
 
Ross is an advocate of KAMP Student Radio.  He would like to support a 
petition currently being circulated to install a more powerful antenna for 
the station.  (7709516) 
 
I now have some more information about the upcoming fund-raiser.  The 
purpose of this fund-raiser is to make $250 for the hiking club.  This 
money will be used to clean equipment and to purchase other equipment 
which is either lacking or could be replaced.  The organization is called 
Campus Promotions Network and they sell credit cards.  (Yup, I know, I've 
gone pretty low to associate with them.)  All I need is to put a schedule 
together for manning the booth they want to set up.  (Ha! Ha!  you 
actually have to show your face there too!)  The dates are March 3rd 
through March 7th, 9-5 on Monday through Thursday and 9-3 on Friday.  I 
believe I have Friday covered, and probably Tuesday and Thursday, so I'm 
looking for some rotating shifts for Monday and Wednesday (or any day). 
If anyone is unusually free on one of those days (or maybe you really like 
the credit card companies :-o ) then EMme and I'll sell you my soul. 
Thanks! 
 
Hope to see everyone at the next meeting!  Don't forget to come to dinner 
after the meeting!!! 
And BTW, it's in room 283
