Above results show that team PA would have done better by belonging to some other club as the tramping club does not appear to offer the competition of the calibre that team PA (Pikers Anonymous) require. Our 51st Chief Sucker is Captain Rhino Wright, not infrequently known as Andy. The freshers trip was held in 1st week of the term and was a dismally, bitter success with bad weather preventing a Raumahanga river crossing. Other activities have included hut bash's, ligament bash's and ear bash's.
The Tramping Club also caters for trampers for which a number of activities have been planned including rock climbing instruction, alpine instruction and trails alpine and tramping happenings in May holidays and even after the holidays. We also hold regular meetings where various films, slides and speakers occur. These club evenings are also open to any other peasants not belonging to the club. Any inquiries?
