This year again, the venue will be to Evans Lake Forest Education Centre. The good news is that is very close to Squamish, meaning more climbing! Tickets will start selling during Clubs day, September 19th - 21st. Look for our booth outside the SUB south entrance. If you can't make it to the booth at those times, drop by the clubroom around lunchtime.
