Welcome to all our new and existing members!
For any of you who don't know, we train every Tuesday and Thursday in the Minor Hall between 5 and 8 and of course, there's always a few willing to go to the bar afterwards. We also try to go climbing outdoors at every available opportunity, mainly in Dalkey Quarry, in South Dublin , which is on the train line. We are going to start arranging weekend trips to Dalkey as soon as possible, but of course, this is weather dependent.
Our first weekend away is to Glendalough, in Co. Wicklow. This trip is always the highlight to the year, and it's a great opportunity to meet lots of new people, and get to try out different types of outdoor climbing. We will be giving out more information on Glendalough later this week.
Update: Ger McDonnell Memorial Access Scholarship Climbing Competition
The fundraising competion went well and was enjoyed by all. E400 was raised towards the scholarship, well done to all involved. And a big thank you to all our sponsors: BT Ireland, IBL, 53 Degrees north, Trevor Fisher of Tollymore, Chambers Pharmacy and Monster drinks. Click here to see the results and some photos from the day.
