ACC have made the national press! Oli’s full page article about Aberystwyth Caving Club appeared in The Independent yesterday. If you didn’t manage to buy a copy then here’s the article scanned in. Click to enlarge, then click in the bottom right corner to view full size for reading.

Members from ACC will be walking 75 miles from Aberystwyth to the SWCC in Penwyllt to raise money for the Cave Rescue Organisation, which will be celebrating its 75th Anniversary in August.
The walk will take four days from the 10th – 13th of August, covering the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons.
Please donate to this worthy cause:

Rich has for the past ‘few’ years been collecting, scanning, typing (with the help of a few others) and re-editing all the back issues of Thrutch – the magazine of the Aberystwyth Caving Club. All issues are now available online to view for your enjoyment.
This has been no small task, so good effort Rich. Now how about Eugene?

We’ve received flyers for this year’s Hidden Earth, to be held in Leek, Staffordshire. The cover photo is from Diccan Pot.
For more details visit their website
hidden-earth.org.uk.
(To view the text, open the photo then click to zoom to actual size in the bottom right.)
I will try and bring them along to the next social for people.

Rural Devon’s bus service leaves much to be desired. Where I’m from they come in threes, and so it is with ACC clothing. Matt and Ian at Beast have made us up some ACC branded belay belts. They are selling like hot cakes, so if you want one email Oli asap and give her the requisite 15 squid. Check out Beast Products for tackle sacks and the like. It was Matt who hurt himself at the weekend, so they clearly make gear you can believe in.
Oli is far more likely to sell you a belay belt if you’ve submitted your Oh Henry article. Get writing kids.
Chris has got hold of some heavy duty sacks for people who don’t have Bernies bags, so if you want some Animal feed scented caving kit get in touch (cheers for those Daf).

From the ogof.org.uk website, you can now download a Google Earth file to view the locations of the majority of Welsh caves and digs. Useful if you need to know exactly where entrances are…
The file can be found here

Hello fellow cavers, the design for the 2010 Hoody is now up. The design is not a new design but it keeps things simple and doesn’t take too much faffing in exam times.
From next year I will make sure that the hoodys are available to Freshers, whether it’s me in charge of them or someone else. I aim to have the hoodys ready for the AGM.
Any thoughts or ideas are welcome.
Tim, El Pres.
