Reading University Caving Club 
Description:
CHECC 2011 – what can I say?! Every year the Council of Higher Education Caving Clubs organises an event for every student caving club in the country. It’s not uncommon for around 300-450 students to attend this event!
Expect lots of wild partying, dancing (not always fully clothed!), competitions including the Annual Beer Pong and Squeeze Machine championships, exhibitions and displays – and many other things! We might even get around to doing some caving at some point… 😀
This year, CHECC is being held at the same venue as last year – the Dalesbridge centre in Yorkshire. We anticipate a lot of demand for this trip, so please sign up for it ASAP at one of our Monday pub gatherings, or by emailing our president.
Where:
The Dalesbridge Centre, near Settle, Yorkshire
When:
Friday 25th – Sunday 27th November. Meeting in the car park of the Athletics Pavilion at 6:00pm on the Friday – see building 43 on this Map [PDF file]. Returning very late in the evening on Sunday.
What to bring:
- Standard trip gear
- £40 [exact price TBC] to pay for the trip if you haven’t already, plus extra money to pay for any additional food or booze on the way there or back
- Loads of alcohol!!
- Your costume to go with the club’s ‘theme’ this year – precise details TBC
- Plenty of warm clothes, thermals if you have them, and a warm sleeping bag. Yorkshire is cold!
- A tent if you have one.
- An expectation that just about anything might happen this weekend!
I like to thank the Caving group that found and returned my dry bag at the weekend and as a thank you I will,as agreed, be making a donation to Ingleton Cave rescue.
Many thanks
Dave
Hope you had a good weekend
