Dear Cavers, First off, our* AGM is on Tues 24th March (TOMORROW!)*. Turn up to vote or stand for a position. We'll be meeting in store 6pm to clean the gear from the weekend, probably then moving onto a meeting room for a quick vote before retiring gently to the pub to celebrate another great year's caving. We have three official union posts: *President *- Responsible for overall running of the club, generally makes the executive decisions (though can be overruled by treasurer and secretary). *Treasurer* - Looks after the budget, balances the books, applies for the next year's budgets, generally deals with the numerals. *Secretary* - Fairly flexible post - generally books huts, sorts minibuses, coordinates people to trips, sometimes puts together gear orders And three internal positions: *Foreign Secretary*: Organises foreign tours and expeditions, contacts cavers in other countries. *Social Secretary*: Does the social events. *Tackle Meister*: Keeps stores in a vague semblance of order. ---- The Derbyshire Trip this weekend, last minibus trip of the term, was a stunning faff-free success. Super efficient 5 1/2 hrs exchange in Maskhill/Oxlow with 11 peeps, and a quick foray into Peak Cavern on the Sunday, including a cheeky splash of novel exploration.

Spot the people!: http://www.union.ic.ac.uk/rcc/caving/photo_archive/trips/2009-03-20%20-%20de... ---- Our Easter tour is to the Vercors, France, 9-15th April but we've plans for caving in the UK in later Easter as well. Daren camps, a return to Peak, and some of the harder Yorkshire pots are all plans afoot, though with little travel subsidy left - we'll be in cars, on trains, and hauling gear via bike. Jarv
