COUNCIL REPORT Here is a summary of the Angeles Chapter Council meeting of September 26, 1994: 1. "Earth Share" Chapter coordinator, Kevin Brown, was present to explain this workplace giving campaign. Look at it a~ a United Way for environmental groups whereby your work organization can be included to offer payroll deduction pledges which may go to supporting 86 various organizations, or you may contribute to just one, like the Sierra Club Foundation. Because over 83% of every dollar goes directly to these environmental organizations, it's $ well spent. Contact our Chapter coordinator to see how your company can set up this program. 2. The Southern Sierran Editorial Advisory Committee wants to become more outings oriented. It asks Groups, Sections, etc. to submit articles w/pictures about what they do or how they do it. We should send one to Dave Bybee. Who wants to pen it? 3. Concerning missing peak registers: A resolution was passed by the Council advising EX Corn to recommend to National that it consider establishing a national outings policy which recognizes, protects, and retains peak registers atop officially listed and climbed summits of the Club's entities. (We'll see where this goes.) 4. The Griffith Park Committee is seeking Section status. 5. A joint Ex Corn & Council meeting is scheduled for Thursday, October 20th to facilitate an understanding and dialogue between Chapter entities. 6. Council Bylaws Committee members are Julie Rush and Dave Bybee. |
CLIMBING TRIPS RETURN Signal Peak by the Palm Canyon route is one of the better climbs on the "List". Climbers on this route ascend dry waterfalls in a scenic rocky canyon to reach the summit. The steep cliffs of Palm Canyon are home to native palm tree groves. Look for them high up in small side canyons. Those who climb Signal Peak by this route will see why it is worthy of emblem status. |
