Hi, Thank you so much to everyone who came and helped pack up. Our original deadline was noon today, but since we ran out of boxes last night this has now been extended to Wednesday. If you weren't able to help because you had coursework etc you owe a huge thanks to those who gave up hours of their time to pack up! A special thanks to Max who has worked more on this than most people do in a working week, Eamonn and James who never seem to leave. Khush, Kartik, Cem, Stephen, Alex, Connall, Keir, Ellis Ronan, Matt and those who I've forgotten in my sleep deprived state, thank you! On Monday we will* re auction everything which didn't get sold on Thursday *including all the radio items that were de listed and more items not previously available. Details to follow tonight/tomorrow. Have a good weekend, watch out for emails relating to radio activity next term!

RAG Week & Congratulations
by McAdam, Ronan 02 Mar '14

02 Mar '14

Dear ICRadio members, I wouldn't normally send an email so soon after the announce but I believe this one is justified. I hope this acts as motivation for all of you budding hosts and radio people... All the money raised from the broadcast goes towards one local, one national and one international charity: Caritas Anchor House - http://caritasanchorhouse.org.uk/ Breakthrough Breast Cancer - http://www.breakthrough.org.uk/ Practical Action - http://practicalaction.org/ ----- Message from Aislinn, icRAGdio organiser ----- Just wanted to say a massive thanks to all involved in our RAG Week festivities, especially our long-suffering 24 hour presenters Eamonn and Matt for putting up with my challenges as we made our way to our fundraising goal. Huge thanks to all who came down to present and produce, and those who wandered around with me recording content during the week as well... Too many to name but you all know who you are! ;) Our grand fundraising total is now £510.01, so a huge thank you to all you donors as well! Below is an email from RAG telling us all how great we are, so we can all rest assured that icRAGdio has been a solid success! And don't worry, the website is nearly back to normal. Don't forget, if you want to run for next year's committee (and help run next year's icRAGdio campaign...?) email me the role(s), brief 100 word manifesto, and CC a seconder, and come along to our AGM on Thurs 13th of March! Aislinn Returning officer & 17-hour Sleep Champion ----- Message from the RAG Secretary ----- Thank you so much to you, your presenters and all at IC Radio for working with us during RAG Week. Congratulations in particular for your 24 hour broadcast! You raised an amazing amount for RAG Week and really helped to publicise it throughout the week. >From us all at RAG, a massive thanks, and we hope to work with you again in the future! Very best wishes, Daniel Marx RAG Secretary 2013/14 Once again, a massive thank you to those who donated either time, money or effort to make this a successfully and enjoyable week for people on either side of the airwaves! Ronan McAdam ICRadio Secretary
