Hey Ewe Socials

Hi Everyone,

I’m Jenni, Sailing and Windsurfing Social Sec. Hopefully I met most of you at the welcome meeting last week.

We have lots of great socials lined up in the next few weeks, which I am busy organising!

Tomorrow, as always, we will be hitting Hey Ewe, so if you fancy coming along meet us in JCs at about half 9 for a few drinks before lots of dancing in the Union!

Our first official social will be next Wednesday’s Hey Ewe (the 21st) which will be a PIRATE theme, we want to see everyone make a big effort to dress up as the club gets points for the amount of people who turn up and extra points if we are all dressed up! And points = Money for us!

It will be a great chance to meet everyone, so we hope to see you there!!

Love Jenni

PS. If you can’t find us in … Continue Reading
