Paintball

Warwick paintball soc have been awesome and organised us one hell of an event for Saturday.
As it happens the paintball ground they use is celebrating its 21st birthday and as such there will be live music, a hog roast and just more epic than your body has room for.
The price of tickets is £43 which is really reasonable considering that you get 1000 paintballs, a smoke grenade and all the other things listed above. It also happens to be a cool £12 less than their ordinary asking price.
So I only ask that you signup here and buy tickets on the union website.
Hope you all signup and thank paintball for the awesome job they've done.

End of term / BFL signup
Published on Sat, Jun 7, 2008 8:46:15 PM.
Hi all,
Hope that your exams have been going well, and if they aren't already, will be over as soon as possible. As we come to the end of the year, we're approaching the main event in compsoc's calendar: our annual week-long MegaLAN / BFL, which will this year will take place, as usual, over the final week of term in lib1/2. This is the most popular event of the year, and is often oversubscribed; consider this (short!) warning that signups will open at midday tomorrow (Sunday), with Guest signups opening a week later. Places can fill up promptly, get up (early) and sign up first to avoid certain disappointment and doom.
Furthermore, the annual compsoc barbeque is being held at BBQ site 1 (behind old Rootes) on Sunday 22 June. Please signup for the event and join us for an afternoon of food drinks and... other things.
Finally, we have an end of year clothing order currently open. It closes at the end of next week, but the order should be with you just in time for the BFL. More information can be found here

n.b. if you don't wish to commit to attending the whole week of the BFL (23 - 27 June), please make a note in the signup comments indicating the dates that you do plan on attending for.
