Come Hillwalking in 2010-2011!

EUHWC is one of the biggest sports clubs in the university with over 300 members. We offer students the chance to experience walking, hiking and scrambling (where you get to use your hands) in one of Europe's last great wildernesses, the Scottish Highlands. The club runs day trips and weekend trips away to the mountainous areas of Scotland and Northern England.

Who are we? What do we do? What's On in 2010-2011?

Photo competition winners

The photo competition votes have been counted, and I am pleased to be able to announce the winners! The winners each receive a “lucky dip” prize (these should be available at the pub next week!). The “grand winner”, Andy M, receives a £20 Tiso voucher instead as his winning photograph had the most votes overall. The club budget can’t unfortunately stretch to prizes for the runners up – so you’ll just have to give yourselves a pat on the back :) Now, without further ado, here are the winning photos:

Photo competition! Voting open from midnight Friday 29th April to midnight on Saturday 8th May

The long awaited photo competition is now online! Go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/49697028@N07/sets/ - the 5 categories each appear as an album. I recommend clicking on a category, then clicking on the “Slideshow” button (top right) to view them. By request, all photos are anonymous – this should make voting fairer and was the only way to persuade people to submit embarrassing photos ;)
