Seeing all your lovely faces at the meeting warmed my heart and cooled my toes (still confused by the toe effect). If you&#8217;re new to reading my minutes, I apologize in advance. If you&#8217;re not new, well, it&#8217;s your fault that you clicked on the link. Suckers. Anyway, here&#8217;s what happened in a windowless room with many couches on a wonderful Sunday evening:<\/h1>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">WHAT WE HAVE DONE WITH OUR WEEK(END):<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chloe, Abby, Caroline, Maddy, Jamie, and Zane hiked a prezidENT. &#8216;Twas a lot of fun, they got to see a cabin. There was sweat, but unfortunately no tears. Too bad.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The weather app sucks, but Kaitlin and Brittany (plus others) managed to sweat a little bit on French Mountain. Toad urine (NOT FROG URINE) (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Jys_SuLW9Es\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Jys_SuLW9Es<\/a>) was spotted.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">PJ went to his house with Spencer. Along with that, he and Dylan and others climbed some sick stuff at Mount Washington. No nudity was involved apparently, but I for one don&#8217;t believe it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Maddy and Park and Logan and others summited THE BIG OLE KATAHDIN and Logan ate a WHOLE block of cheese. No updates yet on his digestive system.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Anna and Hannah and Amy and some others went to Maiden(s?) cliff(s?) and DID NOT go swimming. They played fantasy, in which someone presumably died.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Keenan went up Old Speck What the Heck and put cream cheese on another vehicle\u2019s parts. Keller ate some pies.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Julia and Hannah others went to Grafton Notch and ate pie and went swimming. BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD STAPLES STAPLES STAPLES STAPLES. THE BIG 4 (blood sweat nudity tears for future notice) ALL HAPPENED.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tanner Tucker Mickey Ian tkiff and Eric bouldered on boulders.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Stampy.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jake and others paddled up a bloody river. Bowdoin got shown (showed?) up.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Amy B and Dalton and others\u00a0did THE BIG OLE KATAHDIN. Fear was had.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Owens and some other unknown (or maybe known by some of y&#8217;all) people climbed at Precipice (in ACADIA) and CRUSHED and had fun.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Soren Austin Max Spencer Jeremy Maddy Martin Maeve Collette (and sorta Dylan) went up Mount Washington and it was pretty. No reports on whether they made it down. Nudity sweat blood and tears supposedly had, but I doubt it. Spencer is known to be a liar.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"lead\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">WHAT IS YET TO BE:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Park is doing some crazy 30 mile hike with SARA LOTEMPLIO (aka tied for best president ever) this weekend, let him know if you&#8217;re interested.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hannah B and I and Michael Kramer and Stampy &#8216;Nat&#8217; Joyce are going on the BEST TRIP IN THE WORLD which might be Katahdin but also might not but no matter what WILL BE THE BEST from a completely unbiased third-party observer.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Spencer is leading a biking trip to common ground fair Friday after (his) classes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Volunteer at that there (Common Ground) fair, it\u2019s fantastic.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Brittany and Chloe are heading to the Whites (Wildcat to Moriah), lengthy hike and tons of fun and 6(!) 4000 footers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Acadia Sky Festival w\/ Dylan and his +1 Lydia (DOUBLE DATE OPPORTUNITY).
