Open Mic Night

It's Open Mic Night again, get ready for a chill night of jamming!

20.00 – 02.00

Location: Coopers Bar

Open Mic Night is exactly what it says on the tin, come down with your instruments and show us what you’ve got! Whether you’re a solo artist or a band, we want to hear you.

After the bands last week it would be great to see all of you acoustic and solo artists coming down with your guitars, keyboards and voices!

See Jack, Joe or myself to sign up on the night, we’re making a prompt start at 20:00 for music all night and into the early hours again.

Take advantage of Coopers drinks promotions for a couple cheap and cheeky pints, chill out and make it a good’un!

Taster Session

Open training session for everyone.

11.00 – 14.00

Location: Great Lines Park, Gillingham

On the behalf of the whole of MedFit (Medway Universitie’s Fitness society) I would like to invite you to join us during our open fitness session, which will take place at the Great Lines Park on the 3rd October 2012.  The workouts will begin at 11am and will continue for a couple of hours. We would like to give you a taste of how our regular training works.

If you don’t know where The Great Lines Park is, meet me at 10:20 in Coopers (I will leave at 10:40)
We, as a society, aim to teach people a variety of training methods so they can lead a healthy and active lifestyle. The different training methods can be used to improve athletic functioning, aesthetics and all round self-confidence.
Training which we carry out can be tailored for individual or group needs and abilities therefore MedFit is open to everyone. The society will use gymnastics, weight training and military style circuits to provide functional training in a motivational and enjoyable environment.

Our qualified training staff will keep a close eye on the technique of executed moves ensuring safety of our members.

-- THURS 11th OCT, 2pm, ONLY £20, LIMITED SPACES --

16.00 – 23.00

Location: Hemel Hempstead Snow Centre

FreeRide society hit the snow centre!

For only £20 you get travel and a 1.5hr lesson, or a 3hr open practice session on real snow!

There are limited spaces, so get to the UMSA office as soon as possible to book your place. A standard lesson is normally £49, so this is an unmissable opportunity to try out skiing or snowboarding, especially if your not sure whether or not to commit to a week in the French Alpes yet! No previous experience required!

And if your an experienced skier/boarder, a 3hr session on the slope is plenty of time to get your skills back before the trip, or work on your 360’s!

SO, just drop by the UMSA office with a £20 note and book your space. Last year all the places were booked after a couple of days, so make sure you take advantage of this great opportunity and get there ASAP!

—£20 for members, £30 for non-members—

—MEET AT 3.30 OUTSIDE COOPERS, LEAVING AT 4—

And if you enjoy it, make sure to get your space on the ski trip! http://www.facebook.com/events/287028258064449/
