Meetings

Our meetings are usually held every Tuesday at 7pm, in MYLT101 of Murphy Building at Kelburn Campus of VUW, or at the Welsh Dragon Bar outside uni term time.

Come along to see what we do and find out about tramping this weekend.

 

Write a trip report!

Share your adventures, and get your write-up / pics in the end of year club magazine, Heels.

It doesn't have to be an essay or an epic - anything is good from poems, recipes, pictures, quotes to whatever your imagination can dream up!

We made it to Level One!! That means today’s meeting will take place in person, and it also means that Taco Tuesday is back! However, it will still be a bit different than usual, as it won’t be held at uni. Check out the Facebook post for more details, and see you at 7pm. P.S. You’ll also still be able to join from the comfort of your own home, via Zoom. #tacotuesday 🌶🌮💫

Adventure awaits! Now that restrictions are changing, the tramping club committee will be discussing how the club will function under Level 2.
