FALL BREAK BACKPACKING MEETING
Fall break is coming up, so we're planning a two night backpacking trip to New Hampshire's White Mountains. Stop by Outhouse Friday at 6:45 to get more info and talk over plans. Email nlichten(at)wesleyan.edu if you are interested in the trip and/or plan to be at the meeting.

CLIMBING! CLIMBING! AND YET MORE CLIMBING!
There's some talk around Outhouse about organizing a fall break climbing trip, as well as just having more climbing trips in general. In order to get things moving in this direction, we're hosting a meeting Wednesday night at ten, so climbers can get together, float some ideas, and maybe organize an outing or two. There'll be ice cream. If you're a climber, you should come and put in your two cents. And in the here and now....

Want to do some rock climbing? The Wesleyan Mountaineering Club will be leading a day trip to the wonderful Ragged Mountain this Saturday (Oct. 30). It is directed towards those with little to no experience but all are welcome. Space may be limited, so email rhigginson(at)wesleyan.edu as quick as you can to get a spot.

Also, next week (Oct. 2 and on) the rock wall at Freeman will open for operation. The wall will be open Monday-Wednesday from 6:30-8:30 in the PM. It will continue at these hours and possibly more for the rest of the semester. No experience or equipment necessary. Just come check it out or email rhigginson(at)wesleyan.edu if you have any questions.

CANOE AT MILLERS
Get your week started on the right foot with a morning on the water at Millers. We can paddle around, swim, hang out, and just enjoy the fall. No experience needed. Meet at Outhouse at 11 on Sunday, with a towel and maybe a little food to picnic with. We also need some cars to make this happen. Email jehrenhalt(at)wesleyan.edu to rsvp.

FARM PARTY
Yes, this Saturday night at 10pm, it's the return of the Outhouse classic. Come on over to dance to bluegrass in the living room, play buffalo in the kitchen, and, you know, just live the good life. Ideally you'll be dressed as a farmer, but cowboys/girls/people, lumberjacks, and their assorted country brethren are also welcome. Get psyched.
