Annual North Wales Mines Trip, 17th - 19th May ~ by Allan Richardson

After the success of last year's trip, with a record number of members attending, it has been decided to return to the same venue.

Therefore The Braich Goch Inn has been booked for the Friday and Saturday nights - 17th/18th May. I have booked 15 places and the club has paid the deposit.

The cost is the same as last year £17.50 per person per night.

I am collecting deposits of £17.50 per person, cheques made payable to SWCC, but sent to me please. Details of the mine trips will be circulated later.

Please email me at records@swcc.org.uk if you are interested, cheers Allan

Help with Dissertation on Caving ~ from Ryan McGlen

"My name is Ryan McGlen and I am in my third and final year of study at the University of Cumbria on an Outdoor Leadership degree.

As part of our final year we are required to complete a dissertation for which we must collect data to analyse. I have chosen to try to investigate what it is that motivates us to go caving and I thought that clubs would be a good place to start!

Please find attached a copy of the pilot questionnaire I have generated, it only contains 8 questions so shouldn't take much more than 15 minutes of your time.

Let me take this opportunity to thank you for your time, I know it's valuable!
If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.

Regards, Ryan McGlen mcglenr25@aol.com"
