CLAWshack

You are on the archive wiki. The new wiki is here. Plans are afoot for a new CLAWshack on campus. The potential location is between buildings 13 & 14 on UniversityAvenue? (the upper right quadrant of D4 on the upper campus map). (The little stairway leading up is obscured.)

The plan is to erect a decent wendyhouse on the concrete slab. The committee need to confirm that the university will actually allow it, and will then gladly accept donations.

The latest news (August 2004) is that Mike has spoke to Edwina Goliath in July. Edwina is actually interested in helping us out, and will forward our proposal to all relevant parties. (Proposal has been submitted, but not yet formally reviewed - 26 August 2004)

We are submitting photos of the location:
(still need to get a photos of the awesome brass whatsits on the stairway)

Plaque text to follow here, with translations even:

One plaque has a picture of van Hunks and the devil, smoking up the tablecloth on the Maaauntain

Something like "In smoking, in fishing, nay even in marriage there are dangers" - Gnome 22 February 2011, at 05:02 PM UTC

(I'll be motivated to enter more plaque details once it's more certain we'll be getting the space - d@vid ;)

Scamper back to the CLAWroom.
