Member’s Gathering this thursday! Signup to be a member!

A message from our Members Relations:

“Hi folks!

I hope everyone’s feeling happy about school. If you’re not, Members’ Relations has prepared a series of booster activities to get you going~ Upcoming next week, we will be watching new anime for free! For free? Yes! New anime? well, not exactly. We will be sharing some of the new season and upcoming season anime promos so you know what to look for to get your anime fix after the exams!

If you are those who have been keeping up and watching everything, this gathering is for you to take stock of how much you’ve watched when you’re supposed to be studying! (or not) If, like me, you have not watched anything since Saturday morning cartoons on premiere 12, this is a good chance for you to get up to date. We will be doing something *fun* with the clips, so bring your wits, good eyesight and come down for a look.

Additionally, we will be leasing new membership for those who are not currently members, but wished to sign up. 

When? Thursday 25th March at 6.00pm onwards.
Where? Students’ society area at YIH (above the Student lounge- just keep taking the stairs up from the canteen!)

If there are any changes to venue it will be made by tomorrow. A final caveat: committee members who can make it, please turn up!


the only,
eris.
