Track talk

Trip planning for the summer schedule is almost upon us, so now is the time to suggest trips you want to do between January and Easter – wonderful day length and nicer weather.  Please let me know if there are road ends you want to go to or particular trips you want to do. Trip planning will be in the TTC clubrooms library on 21 October.

Please also fill in the volunteer survey https://wtmc.org.nz/wtmc-survey/ – I thought it would be interesting to do some analysis on the trip leaders of schedules that I have been involved in since being Chief Guide.  I know that a large number of people do a lot to keep the trips running and the club humming.  One of the most impressive was Sharron Came topped the tables in number of trips led in both winter and spring schedules at four trips each schedule.  There were five (winter) and six (spring) people that lead three trips on a schedule – you are super stars.  The best figure of all is that we have more than 63 leaders that now lead trips.  Thanks for your contributions – please fill in the survey so we know what other things you do.  I would like to especially thank those people that run or organise instruction courses.

Unfortunately I haven’t been doing any tramping (silly house ownership) – my next scheduled trip is tree climbing – so I will have to sign up for some others otherwise my Christmas trip will be a nightmare.
