The Closing of the Semester

Hello all you beautiful people!! I am completely floored that it is already April 17th, we will not have a GBM tomorrow as we simply have no more information to impart! It has been an absolutely amazing semester and year! Two years back from the covid desolation, and I would hazard to say that you can't even tell. This year went by so much smoother, we had a better idea of what we were doing and the dozens of officers that joined our ranks made the process so much easier to manage. Thank you to all the officers who assisted in making this year the amazing success that it was. That being said, we do not have this club without all you beautiful people who show up to celebrate the amazing outdoors, so truly I say thank you to you guys as well. We have yet to decide if we're doing a senior send-off or something for the officers that our leaving us, I cannot say for sure what that will look like, but I'm sure I'll have a part to play in that. However, in the off chance that

Hello all you beautiful people! We definitely had a meeting last night! A reminder that merch pickups (primarily t-shirts) are occurring at meetings, if you are unable to make it to the meetings, but need to pick up your pre-ordered shirt, you can organize with officers to set another time to pick it up.

MEETING TONIGHT

Apologies for the delay everyone, I am off my game, but that doesn't change the fact that we HAVE A MEETING TONIGHT at 9pm on the WPU porch facing Cathy! We will have signups for both spruce knob (overnight hiking trip) occurring THIS WEEKEND meaning we will have very quick signup process, so if you signup tonight you've got much better odds of getting on! We will also have signups for Ohiopyle that will be held in TWO weekends (4/15-16) this is PERHAPS an overnight, but perhaps just a day trip, we will gauge you guys to see what's preferred. A reminder that you do not need to show up in-person to sign up for these trips, but if we need a tie-breaker, we will go with the person who signed up earlier: i.e.- at tonight's meeting. Please lmk if you have any questions! Love you byeeeeeeeee Aidan

Pre-Meeting Email - 3/28

Hello all! Meeting is tomorrow! Be there or be square! 9pm, in the Cathedral of Learning, room 242. A few notes about what we'll be covering: Firstly, we had a super successful trip to Cherry Springs this past weekend, officers will speak to the fun times that it was so that you can get hype for its return next Fall and Spring! Secondly, and big news here, Allegheny is CHANGING. Due to weather abnormalities, we're concerned it might not only be cold, but could be dangerously cold. For that reason, we are diverting to Mt. Davis. Mt. Davis will be a day trip to PA's highest peak, departure aimed for 8am on Saturday, with a return in the afternoon. Sign-ups are open RIGHT NOW. If you're interested or what to learn more click the link:  https://forms.gle/JkUhvPXsXNzbespP9 We need to get this moving quickly so signups will close Wednesday at noon with the roster being sent out shortly thereafter. Thirdly, we have Coopers Rock coming this Saturday too! Weather is looking some

The Meeting 1,856 Days After The First "Groundhog Day" Email

Hello all you beautiful people!! I will attach this again, because it seems people don't read far past the starting few lines, if you would like to unsubscribe, please do so here:  https://list.pitt.edu/mailman/listinfo/poc Yesternight we had a lovely time handing out merch! To all those who came, I hope you are deeply appreciative of your beautiful green shirts that match your beautiful personalities. As well as any stickers or carabiners you snagged! We also held a little raffle for some gift cards that were super sick, so I hope you all enjoyed that too! People going to Cherry Springs this weekend have already been reached out to, please message those trip coordinators if you have any questions! INFO ABOUT SHIRTS: We did a reservation form for the merch shirts, because while shirts are free for members, we wanted to get an informed number of sizes to order to reduce waste! However, as it happens there's usually some that people don't pick up and we have extras anyways. T
