| 5 Jul - 14 Jul | Climbers Club and Joint Pinnacle club meet in Cornwall. FULL..... reserves being taken Sun soaked granite, sea-soaked greenstone and strawberry soaked cream teas at the Count House. Celebrate the summer solstice. This is very much a mix 'n' match meet, so no pre-arranged climbing teams are necessary. As usual, the meet dates have been picked for decent tides. The hut is booked from Friday night up to and including the following Saturday night so that people can stay on until Sunday. This is a very popular meet which books up very quickly, so it would be best to express your interest now to Val Hennelly. The meet is currently fully subscribed but you can put your name on a reserve list just in case. | Val Hennelly |

| 6 Sep - 8 Sep | Aspirants meet in Wales Aspirants who meet the experience criteria are welcome on this meet. See more about the criteria here: https://theclimbers.club/docs/membership/joining-the-club It is an opportunity to meet & climb with other CC members and get an insight into the nature of the club. For club members (ex-aspirants) this is an opportunity to give a little back to the club through spending an enjoyable weekend climbing with future club members. We are likely to have aspirants capable of climbing throughout the grade ranges so we need members of the same capability. If aspirants don’t meet people climbing at a similar grade they may go away with the belief that the CC isn’t for them. Social and meal included on the Saturday evening. | Alison Athroll |
| 6 Sep - 8 Sep | Carngowla meet For those that don’t know Carngowla, it’s a super adventurous sea cliff on the north coast not far from the village of St Agnes, which has a good few pubs and shops etc, As for the climbing if you like getting away from the crowds and enjoy at bit of an adventure there aren’t to many places to beat it , with routes to suit everyone from Diff up to E 6 And plenty in the HVS to E2 range . | Gareth Palmer |
| 20 Sep - 27 Sep | A joint meet with the Wayfarers Club at the Count House just above Bosigran Crag A joint meet with the lasses and lads of the Wayfarers Club at the Count House just above Bosigran Crag. Tide times are good (IMHO - check for yourself if unsure) that week, I refuse to take any responsibility for the weather. However in my experience September is often drier and sunnier than high summer in the southwest, and the roads less crowded. | Peri Stracchino |
| 16 Nov | Committee Meeting - Downes Hut | Secretary |
