Minutes for Meeting of 08-25-99

There were 17 members present at yesterday's gathering in room 229 in the Forbes building. Apparently Room 307 is under construction, so all meetings will now meet in Forbes 229. There were many new faces despite the fact that there wasn't an announcement in the Wildcat, which I have taken care of. Ok here we go,

Past Hikes

Last Saturday I went to Chiva Falls over by Reddington Rd, which is a great day hike, especially when it's hot because the waterfall and pool were very refreshing. It was about four miles one way, so as long as you have plenty of water, it's a fun hike.

Upcoming Hikes

Hanna will be going to the Gila Wilderness on Labor Day weekend, she is tentative on the time of leaving but hopes it will be a three night backpack. It's an A hike with lots of water where she is planning on going so it should be fun. If you have any questions regarding the hike you can email her at hanna@u.arizona.edu

Wit will be leading a hike this weekend to the Aspen Loop. It's a quick C level hike and will be leaving from the Park Student Union at 9am on Saturday 8/28. Bring plenty of water and a small lunch.

More Pressing Stuff

Elections for new officers will be next Wednesday, so if you're interested in being President, Secretary, Vice President, or Treasurer show up and announce it.

Also, this is bizarre but ASUA had a big wooden box full of Ramblers' archives and wanted me to take it before they threw it out. I managed to save it, however now BJ and I are uncertaing what to do with it. It's got a lot of black and white photos, old minutes,and a whole bunch of old stuff. I have no place for it but if anyone has an idea on what to do with it let me know. It's currently in BJs dorm room and he's itching to get it out of there (it is on wheels by the way).

That's all folks.
