Ready or not, here it comes!
The Vertical Challenge is on again!
For those who don't know what it is, the VC is an event held by the DOC to
encourage getting outside through (mostly friendly) competition. You get
points for doing awesome things outside (hiking, biking, climbing, kayaking,
trail-running), and we keep track of how many points each sub-club gets.
People can join in anytime.
To get points for something, just blitz me what you did, who went with you,
and when you did it (specifics below).
Starting TODAY (4/22), you have 1 month to rack up as many points as
possible (and maybe have some fun along the way).
VC: Spring 2011
04/22 until 11:59:59 PM on 05/20
Get outside and blitz in your adventures!
