The Meeting 1,498 Days After The First "Groundhog Day" Email

Hello beautiful people! For those of you unable to join yesterday's meeting, or those of you interested in a little written recap, your little information fairy has arrived! First up, we have completed and submitted our budget, we've got a few new trips for next year, most of which have been brought in my new officers which is exciting all around, not least of which because our officers have, like, 3 months under their belts and are already like "oh yeah, I'll plan an entirely new trip", it's great, it's amazing, huge shoutout to our ever-growing team! Second, we are ordering merch like, right now or really soon. Shirts and stickers are on the way!! You voted, we listened and now we will provide, coming soon to theaters! Third, there is a reel rock viewing at Ascend on April 11th, it is on our instagram's story if you are interested, but I would like to point out that we did do this, so I guess we are officially trendsetters of the climbing world.

3/29 Pre-mail (get it? like email?)

Hello beautiful people! I hope you're having a good week when you receive this, we have a meeting tomorrow! Hurray! Some details below on what will be going down so you have an idea before showing up! We will be meeting at Lawrence 121 at 9pm, all the events of the night will be summarized in the email following including the signups we will be holding for Ohiopyle!!! YAYYYYY! Taking a lead on that will be one of our new chairs, Jo! With some deets on the matter, an advertisement for those unfamiliar with Ohiopyle, I hand it over to her: Hey outdoorsy people! I am writing to tell you about our upcoming ohiopyle trip. I'm gonna make this snappy so here are the very basics: When : April 8-10th Where : Ohiopyle Campground (~1½ hours from Pittsburgh). It's a camping trip so there's ground to pitch a tent and a bathhouse but no internet/electricity etc. What : Hiking, possibly climbing (no promises folks!), campfire, general good vibes Who : def some squirrels and maybe so

A Friday Update!

Hello beautiful people! This is funky, no? An email on a Friday? Who does that? I probably have from time to time, but I don't normally and can't remember the last time I did it! Just two itty bitty MASSIVELY COOL THINGS First, we have Dolly Sods coming up super shortly, I know it was an all-around amazing time for those who attended in the fall so it is back again! To elaborate on the finer details, I hand it over to Emma: The weekend 26th-27th we have Dolly Sods, WV. This is a gruelling, tough as nails, toilet-less backpackfest! Sign ups open now and will close Monday at 8pm. We will let you know if you are on the trip before the meeting on tuesday. If you are on the trip, come to the tuesday meeting for more trip information and to pick up gear. Please contact Emma Horning ( eah116@pitt.edu ) or Sophia Boquist ( seb195@pitt.edu ) with questions.  The signup is here:   https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfkpEyOGcCZx7L2rVxKrtI20eUn8X-g5eNczTzTP1CSRglUNQ/viewform?usp=sf_l

The Meeting 1,484 Days After The First "Groundhog Day" Email

Hello beautiful people! I have gone back and figured out what the title of this email should be, so we're back on this trend, apologies if you hate it, and if you do indeed hate it, please reply to this email and tell me why and what a better alternative might be! Last night we discussed a lot of managerial stuff in our officer pre-meeting so things are going along quicklike, BUT yeah! Merch is coming along great, we'll be updating you about that really shortly, like, within the week, and due to issues with Green Bank, we have Raccoon Creek this weekend instead! This will be headed by one of our new officers: Madeline, if you have any questions, they are who you wanna reach out to, but you can also always email me and I'll just send you down the line to her or get the answer and reply so whatever is easiest for you. Speaking of, a little blurb about Raccoon Creek from Madeline: "Raccoon Creek is a PA state park about a 45 minutes drive from campus. We'll be staying

Update on Green Bank

Hello all! Due to some unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances, we are going to have to postpone the Green Bank trip. We will be having it, just not this weekend. In its stead, we will be hosting a local hike in frick/schenley that is TBD, more details will be provided at tonight's meeting. Due to it being local, it will not have signups or an official roster, moreso a time and location provided for all those who wish to come. Apologies for the late notice on Green Bank, but if you were excited for it, hold onto that excitement! We will still have the trip, just not quite yet. Your Doorclub Secret Outary, Aidan Bell

PODC caught having meeting after SPRING BREAK??¿¿??? (gone wrong) (not clickbait)

Hello beautiful people! I'm testing the youtube viral video algorithm from 2020 or whenever this was to see if I can get some bonus retention on this email, we'll see if it works! I hope you all had a lovely break and are just as ready to start classes again as the rest of us, i.e.) not ready at all! And if you are ready, who are you and how do you do that? I am also having to imagine that I'm getting off of spring break because, as I won't shut up about it, I'm not in the US, I'm abroad and we didn't have daylight savings yet. #UKbestK ANYWHO, the actual purpose of this email is to let you know we have an IN-PERSON meeting TOMORROW at Lawrence 121/122, whichever is open, you'll see people who look sendy don't worry at 9PM EST, not that you would be in another time zone if you're going... We will be holding Green Bank signups there! I will be sending an email out after the meeting with information on the meeting so don't fear if you can't
