Message-ID: <4408B3A7.9030403@uwaterloo.ca>

Hello to all of you who are looking forward to going to Crawford Lake. 
We (meaning me!) had given out the wrong date. It is, was and will 
always be Saturday February 11th.

We will meet at south Campus Hall outside of the bookstore at 11:30am.  Unfortunately we will not be able to guarantee rides, but if you would like to come and do not have a car, feel free to contact me and I will see if there is someone available to take you in their car.  If you have  a car and are able to take extra passengers please let me know.
There are no areas to buy lunch, so if you will be requiring food, please bring it with you (alternatively, you may forage in the forest for food, but we hear food availability in winter is not good.)

*Directions: *Crawford Lake Conservation Area is located at Steeles
Avenue and Guelph Line, 5 km. south of Highway 401 and 15 km. north of
the Q.E.W.

    We need your help during Campus Day 2006! Campus Day is an annual
    open-house event for prospective students who want a glimpse of life
    at the University of Waterloo. Your job will be to tell them about
    the great Anthropology program that UW has. There is a sign up sheet
    on the door of the Anthropology Society lounge (PAS Building Room
    2007). As little as one hour of your time would be a great help to
    the department.

Rock climbing - On Saturday March 25^th

    We will be having a rock climbing event at Sportsworld in Pioneer
    Park on Saturday March 25th starting at 10:00 am. If you aren't
    feeling energetic, bring $10 for two climbs but if you are really
    feeling like clinging and leaping bring $20 for the day. There is a
    restaurant there to re-energize. Don't worry if you haven't climbed
    before. A number of people have experience and will be happy to
    "show you the ropes". Please RSVP to me before then so that I can
    let them know how many of us are going. Directions are available at:
    http://highergroundclimbing.com/about/location.shtml

End of Term Mixer - March 31^st - location to be determined

    Students and professors are all invited to attend our End of Term
    Mixer. It will be a single location as opposed to a crawl. Come out
    and share in your experiences through this year, your summer plans
    and of course food and drink. There will be an email when plans are
    firmed up on this one.

Heads-up - We will be looking for some new executive members for AnthSoc 
next year so keep your eyes & ears peeled for news about our first 
meeting in September!

*EVENT*

End of Term Mixer - Friday March 31^st - UPSTAIRS at the Grad House 
starting at 5:30 PM (feel free to arrive earlier)

Students and professors are all invited to attend our End of Term Mixer. 
It will be a single location as opposed to a crawl. Come out and share 
in your experiences through this year, your summer plans and of course 
food and drink. Snacks will be provided.


*REMINDER*

We will be having a rock climbing event at Sportsworld in Pioneer Park 
on Saturday March 25th (TOMORROW) starting at 10:00 am. If you aren't 
feeling energetic, bring $10 for two climbs but if you are really 
feeling like clinging and leaping bring $20 for the day. There is a 
restaurant there to re-energize. Don't worry if you haven't climbed

*OPPORTUNITY

*
Dr David Lubell has a large collection of lithic artefacts excavated in 
Algeria in 1978.  His colleague Noura Rahmani (who will be teaching a 
course here next term) is studying them for her post-doctoral project, 
and they need to label the remainder of the collection so that she can 
work with them. 
 
The artefacts are from a Capsian rockshelter and date between 9000 and 
6000 calBP.  They can use the opportunity to teach anyone helping them 
learn about lithic typology and technology and how to analyze the material.
 
Work times can be very flexible, and the work will be done either in PAS 
2008 or another room in PAS.  Dates are also flexible, but they are 
planning now for the May through July period -- they could start earlier 
and/or go later depending on individual preferences and availabilities.  
Unfortunately, they don't have a research grant for this so they can't 
offer to reimburse students for their time, but it will be a learning 
experience and they will give each volunteer a letter of appreciation in 
which they detail what the student did.
 
And, of course, don't forget the party at the end!
 
If you're interested, or would like further details, please contact Dr 
David Lubell either by email (dlubell@watarts.uwaterloo.ca 
<mailto:dlubell@watarts.uwaterloo.ca>) or call him at home (745-0175).
