The Tricouni Club is a small family-orientated climbing and walking club whose members do not come from any one geographical area of the U.K. Therefore, although the membership requirements are by no means exacting, the process for membership is usually by introduction and personal recommendation by one or more existing members, followed by a mutual trial period where the aspiring applicant attends a few Club Meets. Notwithstanding, the Club wishes to attract new members and if you feel you might like to join but don’t know any of the current members, it may be possible to join an Easter or October meet if there is space available in Seatoller House. However, please contact the Club Secretary before trying to book as space is finite and Club members, then their guests, have priority at these times. Another option, if the House is full, would be to stay in alternative accommodation within the Valley, or even to camp at the nearby campsite, just as Club members have done from time to time over the years.
N.B. This Tricouni Club is the genuine and original one with a continuous line of membership since the CHA days in 1929 and has no connection with one based in Derbyshire, giving itself the same name. A number of the present members are sons, daughters, grandchildren, and now, happy to report, even great-grandchildren, of some of the original founders! We still retain the original handwritten minutes from both the founding meeting of the CHA M.C. and the first meeting where it was reconstituted as the Tricouni Club. We even have J.E.B. Wright’s original handwritten assesments of the climbing abilities of those early members.
