If you're a confident and experienced tramper, we would love to chat with you about leading club trips. It's a fun and rewarding way to give back and make sure we have plenty of trips running. Co-leading is a great way to take on your first trip with the support of another member.
We’re running a trip leader training night on Wednesday June 3rd at the TTC Hall, where you can learn everything you need to lead your first trip. Sign up here: https://forms.gle/esZebHTX5X6TYsTz8
You can also see the upcoming trip schedule where you can pick/add a trip to lead or co-lead. It’s open to all club members (plus current/past trip leaders if you’d like a refresh).
• Wednesday June 3rd from 6-7:30ish, snacks provided.
• Tararua Tramping Club hall (4 Moncrieff St, Mount Vic)
