Medium | Central West | This is an inter club trip (MSS, Illawarra & Orange speleo clubs). We will be camping at the Cliefden Shearers Quarters with the aim being to clean out the Quarters as they haven't been used for many years and we're hopeful that we'll be able to use the Shearers Quarters in the future. OSS has also arranged permission to do some caving on one of the Cliefden properties. This is a great opportunity to both have access to the cliefden caves (as we have not been able to cave at Cliefden for many years - AND give something back to the owners by cleaning up the Shearers Quarters. |

Social | Zoom | What will happen, we'll look at the calendar for the coming months and discuss proposed trips (1) if you're not a leader, you can suggest trips that you'd like to do and hopefully someone will put their hand up to lead the trip for you; (2) Leaders will be able to gauge the appetite for a trip they might have in mind; (3) everyone will have the opportunity to express interest in the trips (and your name will be noted to secure your place). This is not a "sit around and talk about trips and then nothing happens" meeting, have your calendar/diary in place during the meeting and suggest actual dates. Think about your wish list and "save the date" a reminder will be sent out prior to meeting. |
