The Club has a full
schedule of meets in a variety of locations throughout the
UK and occasionally into Europe. Several members have undertaken
expeditions to more exotic locations such as South America,
India, Norway, Himalayas and Greenland. We try to maintain
a very good relationship with Coventry University Mountaineering
Club and have the opportunity to attend their meets as well
as our own. Meets can be anywhere and at any time, hut based
or camping. However most years we have had a New Year meet
and an Easter meet which are always extremely popular. We
also have an Annual General Meeting each Spring held at
a different hotel each year, during which we have an opportunity
to elect new Executive Members. The meeting concludes with
a chance to dress up and dine in style.
Although the title
of our club suggests that we are a mountaineering club,
you will find that our activities are a lot more diverse
on meets. We also have members who have branched out into
skiing, kayaking, kite buggying, mountain biking and we
are open to any new suggestions. For those who don't wish
to partake in the activities we often frequent tea shops,
gear shops and of course the pub!! Often we have social
meets whereby the main activity planned for the weekend
is, for example, going for a curry. Shrewsbury Curry night
is an annual occasion now and extremely popular,
so popular we don’t always hold it in Shrewsbury!
