Itinerary:
How to suck less and be more better at…. is a monthly series designed to help facilitate ongoing peer learning. Speakers are volunteers who feel somewhat knowledgeable and are willing to help others achieve basic knowledge in an area- they are by no means experts, and may in fact not be the most knowledgeable person in attendance. The goal is to help improve the knowledge and skill level of all members who participate on mountain trips through regular skill updates. DIscussion and participant input is welcomed during sessions. Food can set trips up for sweet success or leave a bitter taste in everyone's mouths. We will discuss meal planning, food sourcing, preparation and packaging of delicious food. Our focus is on preparing dehydrated one pot meals and delicious snacks for summer adventures.
How to Get There:
Event Directions:   We will meet in the Alexander Calhoun Library Program Room. This room is located in the north-east corner of Calhoun Library.  

Notes:
** The ‘How to suck less and be more better at’ series is put on by volunteers, who are by no means experts or guides, just people who are willing to share some knowledge in an area. Discussion and participant input is welcomed.
