Goals for 2012

Last year was quite a successful year regarding my CAS activities. I felt like I did a lot when it came to MUN (creative) and Cleft Palette (Service). For MUN last year we really focused on raising funds for the conference as well as general organization. I raised Rs. 400,000 in addition to organizing the venue for the 3rd day of conference (Cinnamon Grand) and sorting out the admistrative staff which is my job as Head of Admin. For service, the Cleft Lip and Palette group organized an extremely successful charity concert in which we made a large profit.
This year for CAS my goals will be as follows:
MUN - I will continue to do what I have done except myself and the entire group may have to work a little harder as we are getting closer to the conference and everything is going to become more hectic. My goal is still the same in which I want to become Sec Gen for next years conference thus I am just going to continue doing what I've done.
Service - For service this semester we decided to do smaller yet more frequent fund raisers (such as a movie night) rather than one big event. Hence the group and I will have bake sales, movie nights, etc. and my goal for the service activity is to become a leader next year as I have done 2 years of Cleft Lip and Palette.
Action - the action aspect of CAS would probably be my least active area. I did a little bit of Zumba however during christmas break I started doing Zumba and Pilates which were really fun. So my goal is to keep doing Zumba and Pilates twice a week in order to keep fit.

Battle of The Bands!

Battle of the Bands took place this saturday and it was a HUGE success! The turnout was really good and everyone worked very hard that night as well as during the day. Kirsty, Imran, Karl and I were in charge of collecting tickets and body checking where as Nadeera, Rasmus, etc. were in charge of sound. The raffle tickets too sold quite well and in total, along with sponsorships, etc. I think we made a total of around 350,000 - 400,000 which is pretty amazing!

Battle of the Bands

The Battle of the Bands will be taking place this coming saturday (26th), thus everything has been pretty chaotic. I'm mainly in charge of selling the tickets so Kirsty and I have been trying to sell them at every opportunity. We have also been selling raffle tickets to get more money. I'm really hoping the concert will be a hit!
MUN too has been pretty hectic as getting sponsors this year has been rather difficult due to the increase in the cost of living. That along with the fact that we're trying to get Cinnamon Grand for the final day of conference has put an extra burden on our shoulders however I am very passionate about MUN thus I'm going to see this true.
