Just a reminder that our April meeting will be held this Wednesday, April 13th at the PATC Headquarters located at 118 Park St, Vienna, VA) at 7:30pm. Sarah Goldman and Naz Ahmed will present their slide show on their adventures to Horseshoe Canyon, Red Rocks, and Joshua Tree.
During the meeting, we will vote on the one motion presented at the March Meeting. If you cannot attend and still want your voice to be heard about the motion - please reply to this email with 'Yes' that you're in favor of the motion or 'No' you are not in favor of the motion. Votes must be received by Wednesday, April 13th at 3:00pm EST. The motion is:
Colleen requested a monetary contribution to the first of the women-focused events that we have planned for 2011. PATC is collaborating with the Explorers Club of Pittsburgh and the Gendarme to do a season opening weekend at Seneca focused on dusting off winter mothballs for female trad climbers. This will be the weekend of April 16 – 17 (all details are on the PATC calendar)
The primary outlay in terms of costs are:
-A group campsite at Seneca shadows for 2 nights ($120)
-Potentially having Jessa Goebel out with us, a female climber who, as Diane from the Gendarme says, puts together wicked training regimens. Her cost for the weekend is likely to be $250
We are avoiding anything at this event that could inflate cost including paid clinics although these will be available to individuals at their own cost because we’ll have people available to offer them. All participants will be requested to pay $25 for the weekend, which will go some way to covering costs, the EPC will be contributing to this effort as a club as well. The request to PATC is for a $100 contribution.
We look forward to seeing you at the meeting.
Cheers!

Vice-Chair, PATC-Mountaineering Section
