Meeting Today Mon Feb 8th

A big thank you to all of you who turned out today for the meeting! Here's what happened:

1. Made it compulsory to attend all classes. If you miss 3 classes, whether for work, sports (a valid medical excuse is possible!) you will be asked to withdraw from the course. If you can't participate please withdraw as others wish to join the class which is limited to 30 students.

2. You must pay $20 (for the Climbing Belay course, including transport to Kelowna and climbing at the gym plus instruction in the classroom) and return the "Inherent Risks Form" signed by your guardians by Friday Feb 12th or it will be considered evidence that you are dropping the course. Some other activities also cost money: x-country skiing $10, Discover Scuba $25, kayaking $10,

3. Classes and activities start Monday with the Belay Climbing Course part 1 being taught at the school 3:30-5:30. They will be mostly on successive Mondays. See the previous post about other dates until April.

4. The updated calendar was handed out in class and will be posted on the website this week.

5. Students need to participate in at least 1 multi-day trip to fulfill there commitment to 125 hours of course time. If possible, students may participate in more than one trip.

Choices are:
Cape Scott - 1 week long hiking trip in last week in April - cost $200-300 depending on numbers and other considerations
Gulf Islands - 4 day kayak trip in May - cost $300
Twin Lakes - 3 day Hiking Trip first week of June - cost $100

See you soon!
