As such we will be splitting those coming to Pulse social climbing nights into three groups of no more than 20 each. Please get your free ticket to book your spot and please only come at the time you have got a ticket for. If there are too many people Pulse may have to ask some to leave so it is imperative that we all stick to our times.

Additionally we all need to make sure we continue to: Sanitise our hands between climbs Sanitise carabiners at every change over Do not share personal equipment Cough/sneeze into elbows or preferably a tissue instead of on your hands followed by washing/sanitising the coughed on area immediately Keep 1.5m away from each other Comply with limits to how many people in each area (20 in boulder area, 8 upstairs, etc) - these are all labelled Comply with staff instructions - if you do not you will be asked to leave the gym and possibly the club, this is a serious matter with serious consequences for the safety of individuals, the accountability of the club and Pulse I look forward to seeing 39 other people there, stay safe, have fun and climb well!

Everyone will need to bring: Sun safety (hat, sunscreen etc.) Water shoes or shoes you dont mind getting wet. Swimmers and a rashshirt or something to cover you from the sun. Water and Lunch.

Each year the NUMC drives around the country on many adventures and this year we have decided to try and offset our carbon emissions by donating to an offset charity.  On each event description there will be link to this event, giving every member the option to help to offset our emmisions across the year.  A $3 ticket is enough to offset the carbon emissions of an average NUMC trip* through the 'Carbon Neutral Charitable Fund'. At the end of the year there will be a prize of a free trip ticket for whoever has bought the most offset tickets!   *based on the mean distance travelled on trips in 2019

On Sunday we have the option to do an early morning birdspotting walk and then either continue doing landcare or go for a short hike (or both) depending on enthusiasm levels before we drive back on Sunday afternoon. Tools will be provided by Hunter Intrepid Landcare. Make sure you bring: Warm clothes for at night (it will be more chilly up there than in Newcastle!)

Come and join us to clean up the Hunter Wetlands along Ironbark Creek. We will be using canoes to paddle along the creek collecting rubbish. During a recent survey Clean4Shore estimated several tonnes of rubbish in the mangrove environment around nearby Kooragang Island so we expect there to be plenty to clear out at Ironbark Creek.  As a reward for your hard work (as if the warm fuzzies of saving the environment aren't enough!) we'll have free catering to keep you sustained. No experience is necessary and we will provide all the paddling equipment and some gardening gloves to protect yourself from sharp rubbish. You will need to bring clothes and shoes you don't mind getting wet (it will be muddy), as well as plenty of water and sunscreen.  If you would like to reduce the carbon footprint of driving to/from the trip check out our carbon offset initiative! http://tdy.cl/se/28jhiHY We will have hand sanitiser available for all and we ask that you all check https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/latest-news-and-updates to ensure you have not been to any of the hot spots.
