Bonus Fundraiser: Training Days

For $50, you can be my coach for a day. I will have to do whatever you tell me (okay, a few limitations: training activities can’t exceed 8 hours a day, and I won’t eat meat). Five training days available: July 5-9.

We don’t have an online payment system set up yet, so you’ll have to give Joanna cash or a check or something. All money raised will go towards activities, projects, publications, etc., for The AS in The AS.

Restrictive DJ Night

proposed and led by Patrick Williams

Friday, June 18, 8 pm

Show off your spinning skills by meeting the restrictive DJ night challenge.

You will be given certain rules to follow for your set, such as:
all songs played must either:
-have been released in a year ending in 3
OR
-include the word “dance” in their title or lyrics
OR
-on a 45rpm/7″ record

Patrick will offer  a quick primer on mixing records at the beginning of the night, and at the end we’ll have a drawing to choose restrictions for the next round.

Turntables, vinyl, and cocktails provided.
