Answers

·  How do I become a member of Wolverhampton Mountaineering Club?

Most people find they get out of the club in proportion to what they have put in - so, we want you to be sure you like us before you join. Therefore, the only criteria of membership is that you attend a minimum of 3 meets with the Club. It is best if you can to pop along to the New Inn on a Tuesday and have a word with Carol, the New Members Officer.
