ICSS Musical Outing - Updates 5. ICSS Production 2011 6. Calling for Logistics and Backstage Crew for Production 2011! 7. Talk Cock Sing Song Recruitment ----------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Membership Cards ----------------------------------------------------------------- The ICSS Membership Cards are now ready for collection! * View image: * <http://www.ic-singsoc.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Membership-Card-Fronto…> We will be first releasing the membership cards during the Christmas Party on 4 Dec. Be sure to have purchased your membership from the Imperial College Union and remember to collect your membership card on that day! As each card is unique, we will need you to get your card personally. Do refer to this page <http://www.ic-singsoc.net/?page_id=417> to see what your privileges are as an ICSS member. A full list of participating restaurants for membership discounts and the accompanying terms and conditions can also be found here <http://www.ic-singsoc.net/?page_id=422> - be sure to check before you start using your card! :) ----------------------------------------------------------------- 2. ICSS Paintball Day - updated with more details! ----------------------------------------------------------------- Attention! ICSS Paintball day is here, and below are the (almost) finalized details for the event! Theme: ICSS Paintball day; JUNIORS VS SENIORS i.e. Fresh fighters vs the Experienced marines. When: 5th December, Sunday Where: Delta Force Paintball Arena (within London!) How many: 40-50 ICSS 'garang' warriors Cost: Under £20-25 per person! (covers entry into paintball ground, **300 paintballs each**, does not include food & transport) Short description: Gear up 'coz it's time for some war with paintballs! ICSS is looking to invade Delta Force, London's best rated paintballing ground, on the 5th of December, Sunday. Be prepared for a **whole day** of paintballing fun, as the professional services from the Delta Force management will ensure that we have a blast of a time paintballing. There will be approximately 12 scenario games for us to play and the training, safety and equipment hire will all be professionally taken care of by the venue management. The realistic settings and elaborate scenarios make it all a chance to have a great day of fun! Have a look yourself at their website: http://www.paintballgames.co.uk/. ***FAQ*** **Can ICSS organize this another day?** Unfortunately not, as majority of the people who have signed up so far prefer to go on the 5th December, and we're keen to have this society-level paintballing blast before the term ends! For those wondering if ICSS will organize this again, there might be one in spring term, so keep your eyes peeled. **Why does it cost so much?** It doesn't! Well, at least if you consider what you're getting in return. A whole day of paintballing, if you're not going in a large group (like ours!), would cost much more, simply because of the entry fee (which is less than £5 now, instead of the usual ~£15). Also, the main cost for any paintballing event comes from the purchase of the paintballs, and after doing some considerable research, I found the deal mentioned above to be the most value-for-money! **Will transport be provided?** Delta Force is located in London, and we will meet together as a group on Sunday morning to go down to the venue together by tube. So in short, no special transport arrangements. **What about food?** While currently, the management says that no food is provided (for free), I will try to see if they can include refreshments at least. However, I'll recommend packing lunch at the very least! **Do I need any special gear/clothing?** Nope! Everything will be provided for by the venue. Light boots or good trainers are recommended though. Also, you might want to wear a pair of gloves to keep your fingers warm (especially the finger on the trigger!). Old, comfortable clothing is recommended. **Is it safe?** YES. Full safety gear will be provided, and the venue guarantees that serious injuries from the paintball pellets will not occur. Lastly, if you have any questions, feel free to contact me at icss.events(a)gmail.com! If you'll like to sign up for this event, e-mail me today at icss.events(a)gmail.com! SEE YOU THERE! Cheers, Sid ----------------------------------------------------------------- 3. ICSS Christmas Bonanza ----------------------------------------------------------------- The once-in-a-year ICSS Christmas Bonanza is two weeks ago! Start preparing for this festive season now! **4 things to remember about the Christmas Bonanza:** 1) Dress up! You can come in as the jolly ol' Santa, a kinky reindeer, a naughty elf, your favourite character or simply in the festive colors of green, red or gold! 2) Bring a small gift for the gift exchange! Anything that costs between £3-5 will do! Keep the gift-exchange tradition up and have the chance to receive a mystery gift from your Santa/Reindeer! 3) Bring some food for this potluck event! Have a go at making your own Christmas pudding, roast beef or even mince pies! 4) Bring **one random item** to the party! It should be something that you don't need or can do without! It's use will be revealed during the party :) **PARTY DETAILS:** Date: Saturday, 4th December 2010 Venue: EEE Building, Rooms 403A/B Time: 6pm till late Theme: Christmas Potluck Attire: Christmas colours / Christmas costumes Activities include Xmas Fiesta / Xmas Tree Decor Contest / Xmas Best Dresses / Xmas Gift Exchange / Xmas Games and Fun!

I would like thank all of you for your strong support for the Nottingham Games 2010. I can see all of you have enjoyed the fun-filled day where friendships are fostered.

See you next year again! * View image: * <http://files.groupspaces.com/icss/files/39319/Nottingham-Games.gif> Cheers, Hong Yi ----------------------------------------------------------------- 2. ICSS Production 2011 ----------------------------------------------------------------- The climax to the ICSS calendar of events is slowly taking shape in the form of the Production 2011! This is the one event that every ICSS member must be a part of! If you’ve yet to sign yourself up with the team, don’t procrastinate any further. The Production will be a musical/drama/performance which will showcase the talents and culture of the Singaporean community here at Imperial College London. **We have now started on rehearsals for actors and actresses!** Be involved now in one way or other by contacting the following people in charge! Directing / Scriptwriting / Acting: Shuren (shurenlin(a)hotmail.com) Music: Sid (sidmontu(a)gmail.com) Dance: Haoyi (haoyi_crey(a)hotmail.com) Publicity: Junying (junyinglim(a)gmail.com) Logistics: Hongyi (wonghongyi(a)hotmail.com) ----------------------------------------------------------------- 3. ICSS Paintball Day ----------------------------------------------------------------- Yearning for some adrenaline-packed paintballing action? ICSS brings you the paintballing day for everyone to release some stress and have some fun! Not only that, but this is our chance to go head-to-head with the seniors (or juniors, if you're a senior) in the special juniors vs seniors match-up! The tentative details are all listed below! E-mail your interest (and preferences, in some cases) to **icss.events(a)gmail.com** today to reserve a spot! Please also state whether you'll be playing on the seniors' or juniors' side. **When:** 5th December (Sunday) **or **11th December (Saturday) <-- Please indicate if you can't make it for either one of the dates **Program:** **WHOLE DAY** event, lasting from 9am to 4pm. Includes lunch, and refreshments. Qualified supervision and training provided by facility staff. Playing about 10-15 different scenario games, with awards and recognition given to exceptional players. Safety issues will be taken care of, and it promises to be a day of great paintballing fun! **Where:** Several possible venues, some inside London, others out of London. If it's out of London, we will hire a coach to bring you guys there and back, but it will add to the cost (by approximately 5 pounds, will confirm this again). The venues out of London are bigger, outdoors and generally better for paintballing fun. **Cost:** 20 - 30 pounds per person, which should include about 300 paintballs. You can purchase more rounds on that day for 6-7pounds for extra 100 paintballs. The cost of this event, considering the enormity of the event, is still well worth the price (and definitely much cheaper than in Singapore, where you pay $50++ for only 2 hour sessions). These are some of the preliminary details, and I'm still trying to get better deals for cheaper tickets. We can also choose to do a half day paintballing event, which would end by lunchtime, but I feel that it is not worth the money and definitely not as much fun (alert: personal opinion! :P. Do let me know your preference, but take note, that the event will take place based on the majority preference. Finally, if you have friends who are interested, do invite them. The event is open to everyone, but Singsoc members are given priority. There are a total of 40-50 slots available and we have about 20-30 more slots available! So e-mail me today to reserve a spot! Cheers, Sid ICSS Events ----------------------------------------------------------------- 4. ICSS Musical Outing ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hi all!

As some of you may already know, there are a couple of us from Warwick embarking on a humanitarian project entitled C-africa, in Lusaka, Zambia for about 200-300 HIV-infected children. We will be setting up a library, doing up the school and conducting educational day camps from the 8th to the 22nd of December. Together with the other half of the team from Singapore, we are making concerted efforts to fundraise as much as possible to support our logistical requirements for the trip. The objectives, program and breakdown of fundraising are stipulated in the prospectus, which can be found here <http://www.ic-singsoc.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/c-africa-prospectus-20…>. You can buy a t-shirt for a child for £8 and receive a personalised thank you card from him/her in return. Alternatively, you can choose to donate cash which will contribute to their lives in different ways (please click here for the donation form <http://www.ic-singsoc.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/c-africa-donation-form…>). We really hope to gain your support on this as it means very much for us to be able to go over with as much money as possible for the village school we are working with. Do fill up the donation form if you're interested in donating and forward it to me. You can also drop me an email if you want to find out more about the project at rachellaiyanfen(a)gmail.com.
