Start of the Year Social, Friday September 16th!

Hi everyone!

Welcome to a new year of PUMC!!!  We’re thrilled that there are so many new people excited to get out and about this year!! 
 
With that in mind, we hope you come to our Start-of-the-Year-Social!  It will be this Friday, going from 6 pm until ~10 pm!  We’ll be hanging out at Campus Club (https://www.princeton.edu/campusclub/) in the Den, a cozy little space with lots of chairs and sofas. This will be a great time to talk about trips you’ve done and loved, trips you want to do, trips that are currently in the works – and meet other people interested in the outdoors too!  You’ll need to use your prox to get into the building, and the Den is downstairs, on the left from the bottom of the stairs. If you can’t get into the building or find the Den, give me a call at 603-866-9041!  Feel free to come by for a few minutes or stay all night!  
 
Around 7 pm, we’ll have a short “official” meeting to check in about club officers, upcoming events, and ideas people have for the year.
After the short meeting, we’ll also start screening “A Walk in the Woods,” a comedy adventure movie about two estranged elderly friends that decide to hike the Appalachian Trail together.
We hope you can stop by for a bit!
