If you’re a new member . . . depending on your age and
background . . . you might have a few questions:
1. How do I get involved in activities?
2. What kinds of activities can be organized?
3. What is the average age of WMC members?
4. How many people participate in the activities?
5. How aggressive are the various activity groups?
The answers . . . ask away! Ask someone in the club! Send an
e-mail to wasatchmountainclub@gmail.com or call someone from the
governing board (inside front cover). The average age is...
honestly, we don’t know. Why don’t we know? 1. We haven’t yet
started tracking that information. 2. It doesn’t matter. There are
older folks who can out-hike/-bike/-paddle any younger person.
There are also younger people who like to do light activities.
Sometimes tons of people show up for activities; sometimes only a
couple. This is the nice thing.
The WMC activities allow for flexibility; if you can show up, do--if you
can’t, don’t. As for how vigorous and aggressive the various activities
and groups are (hikers, bikers, etc), contact the director or coordinator.
Please don’t feel like you can’t organize an activity if you
don’t know your way around. There are so many people who can
help you, and you can even decide on a destination at the time of
meeting! You might have one or two awkward activities, but just get
together with people who share the same interests as you, and you’ll
be on your way to tons of fun and excitement--things you
never thought were possible!
