New Website
November 17, 2005
I hope you enjoy the new website for the Bushwhacker Climbing Club. Please invite your friends and neighbors to come here to learn more about the club and our courses.
Many people have asked about the old Bushwhacker Newsletter, and if that will be resurrected. The answer is yes, indeed; in the future we will be incorporating that into this new site.

Annual Club Meeting
The Annual Club Meeting was Tuesday night, November 15, held at Issaquah Brewhouse again this year. It was a fine crowd of about 30 individuals, all meeting and greeting. We conducted our business too; a presentation about the status of the club and plans for the upcoming year. I hope all that attended had fun and learned more about the club.
