Have you been wanting to get outside since winter school? Join us for a fun weekend at Camelot from Friday, March 31st through Sunday, April 2nd for two days of hiking, climbing, skiing, and fun!
This weekend will operate as a winter circus / return of winter school with two days of winter trips. Dinner will be provided for everyone on Saturday night, and we'll have plenty of time to hangout, meet new people, and enjoy the Camelot cabin.
Although it will technically be spring, we'll likely still be out in winter conditions, so most trips will be determined before leaving Boston to accommodate gear rentals.
MEETING: The pre-trip meeting is on Monday, 3/27, at 8pm. The meeting will be held on Zoom due to the current closure of the MITOC office. (Link coming later)
OFFICE HOURS: Tuesday and Thursday 6-7pm at the MIT boathouse (building N52 on Windsor St)
The number of participants for the circus will be determined based on the number of leaders. All participants must have attended the two mandatory lectures of Jan. 2023 Winter School, and ideally at least one winter school trip.
If you have any questions, email Katie and Asha at circus-chair@mit.edu .
