End-of-Exams Bush Vibes – May 16–18 @ Cathedra End-of-Exams Bush Vibes – May 16–18 @ Cathedral Campground

Hey legends! A bunch of us are heading out for a super chill camping weekend May 16–18 to celebrate surviving exams 🎉

This isn’t an official UNSWOC trip — just a casual meet-up at Cathedral Campground. Come out for a night, or the whole weekend. Climb, canyon, hike, or just sit around the fire and decompress.
Important stuff:

Be fully self-reliant — no one’s bringing gear or leading trips

You can rent gear from the cupboard beforehand if you need

Beginners are welcome if you’re coming with mates who know what they’re doing (but they’re not guiding you!)

Here’s the carpool link (also on our Facebook): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bvv1w_5aSxLTsq9W-5m5oua_Lzc1KsDUHMOPbQ4_doE/edit?usp=sharing

Bring your gear, your snacks, your campfire chat, and your best post-exam energy.

No formal signup, no expectations — just good people, a great spot, and a weekend to reset 🌲🔥
See ya Friday night (or whenever you roll in)! 😎
Hey Everyone! Exams got you tired, and need to wi Hey Everyone!

Exams got you tired, and need to wind down?? We’d like to invite you to our social dinner and games night! 🎲🃏⏳

Where: 🗺️ Wednesday May 14th at 6pm

This was a great hit last time, so it's back for round 2!

We will see club members new and old flocking to Wayward Brewing Co. in Glebe for dinner 😋, drinks 🍻 and hopefully some board games 🧩 (BYO any cool games please!). If this event continues to be popular it will become a monthly event!

This is a social event open to all club members as well as prospective club members. You do not need a membership to come along. Feel free to invite some friends to join too! 🥰

We’d appreciate if you could sign up on our website (link in bio) so we can get an idea of numbers for this new event. Of course, if you forget, decide to come last minute, or bring some friends who don’t sign up, that’s ok too! All are welcome.

Keen to see you there!
