Hello postdocs,

Love living in Boston but hate the winter months? See the message below from the MIT Outing Club (MITOC) for the perfect way to learn to love the New England winter.

Contact Isaac (CC’d) with any questions!

Best,
Megan


Join<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScG8gnGQ-LcBcwJE9-IZEsoO5Vowys8mzhcbLCZssTnoLs8dA/viewform?usp=header> MITOC’s winter school, a crash-course in cold-weather activities, this IAP to participate in fun outdoor adventures, learn new outdoor skills, and connect with a community of awesome people who love the outdoors!

Watch this montage<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kX6MQnqms_k> to see the cool stuff we get up to over winter school. Tons of outdoor trips are held every weekend of January that take us hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, backcountry skiing, ice climbing, camping, orienteering, and more! Last year we held more than 100 trips<https://mitoc-trips.mit.edu/trips/?after=2024-12-31> over IAP.

A few important notes:
·         No prior experience is necessary! There are trips for all experience levels, including beginner-level trips every weekend.
·         MITOC rents<https://mitoc.mit.edu/rentals> out gear, so you can easily rent any gear you might need for a trip.
·         Financial aid is available towards possible costs of a trip (see the signup form for details).
·         You and your friend can join a trip together by pairing up in the lottery system.
