Borrowing Gear over the summer (2011)?

[Mitch]

Hey peoples,

Just a quick question regarding the borrowing of gear over the summer.
I've asked a few people now and nobody is giving me a straight answer. Obviously with the wall being knocked and stuff it's messing things up a little I'm sure, but just wondering what the deal is?

I've been told already that ye won't be giving out gear; that gear is being put in storage; that if you're taking out gear you have to take it for the whole summer; and a bunch of other unsure and conflicting responses.

Anyone care to shed some light on the subject?

Hey Mitch

First of all we have to secure a storage area for the all the gear from the wall.

Then we will do an inventory on what gear we have and what gear we need.

You will be able to get gear once everything is sorted out but it might take a bit longer than normal .

We have a big couple of weeks in trying to secure a storage area and climbing wall.

Once all this is sorted we will post information.

Any updates on this yet? :/

Hi All,

the club gear has been reloacted to the student centre for the duration of the summer. gear will be available for signing out under the usual conditions all users must be club members and capable/competent of using whatever they are looking for...

Please note that because the storage facility is not the PESS building access needs to be arranged in advance. Can anyone who is looking for gear request it at a minimum of two days before they wish to take it and follow the template used in previous summers. otherwise you may be left disapointed.
