CMU Explorers Club Budget

FY2014 (July 1, 2013 - June 30, 2014)

The Carnegie Mellon University Explorers Club is a meeting place for people interested in outdoor activities such as rock and ice climbing, mountaineering, caving, hiking, backpacking, flat and white water boating, sailing, skydiving, mountain biking, scuba diving, etc. We organize trips almost every weekend with nice weather.
