Plans for semester 2
Update – lockdown friendly activities for the next few weeks
Those in bath this semester Harley, Rob, Kai, Conor, Will, Hugh, Jon Mitchinson
Those not returning/not sure – Jon White, Beth, Kate E
Need to organise some talks – aim for 1 per month e.g. K2 winter summiters, Jesse Dufton, David Coley.
Going to continue to put out walks once a week.
Discord weekly socials continuing and can plan some actual activities e.g. escape rooms, Netflix watch party, among us etc. as better engagement with properly organised socials, especially when used as a contrast to the normal casual socials. Aim to organise more formalised socials every other week? Could tie into AGM a meet the committee session on zoom where they can chat to us about roles as well.
Virtual orienteering events to continue as decent engagement with these over the Christmas period, and beneficial for the development of those new to orienteering, which will be useful in future BUCS etc. Potential to do some online sessions where possible if there is some space? Don’t want to overcrowd the online stuff, but there is some distinction amongst the club so might be good to organise some online sessions.
Weekly strength and conditioning sessions will continue throughout 2nd semester as well.
Hard to do anything relating to climbing during lockdown but hopefully if restrictions ease later in the semester then we could get some small groups going to Sally in the Woods or elsewhere to go climbing.
Update
Plans for some talks – currently AGM to be on the 4th March, and hustings on the 18th March
Aim for a orienteering talk for the 23rd Feb by Cecilia (GB runner) and aim to schedule some more talks in for every 3 weeks so 9th March – David Coley and aim for 6th April – Jesse Dufton?
Possible other talks – walking gear/layering, wild camping, BUMC alumni
AGM
BMC has a corporate zoom account we can use, but also could use teams as that has all of the members on.
Charity event
Collaboration with athletics – create group and see how far we can ascend in a week
RAG usually set up a group fundraiser on virgin money that we direct people to
Charities put forward for vote - Julian House (homelessness and domestic violence) or Baths dividon of Mind or Patterdale mountain rescue/Mountain rescue England and Wales G
Good to have something mountaineering themed to encourage participation, however need to be conscious that we are collaborating with athletics so don’t want to deter them
Could split the money so half goes to mountain rescue and then athletics could choose the other half
Vote – 9 for all to Patterdale mountain rescue and 3 for split between Patterdale mountain rescue and another charity
