It would be the Open Mic Night later on in the day. The whole year had invested time and effort in making the night a possibility, and the hope was that a lot of money would be made in the 7-10 spot we had at Social. The night, which didn't start until 45 minutes after the 7 "official start time." Nathan kicked the night off with an attempt to involve the year group by singing "a classic" with Hit Me Baby One More Time. His 4 songs helped set the mood until two older Architecture Students hit the stage.
Joe and Dave soon followed with numerous renditions of classic songs. The majority of the room was full of students of Architecture, and despite this, the year managed to raise about £75, meaning the night was quite successful. It helped that the year had some light relief from working in the workshop, detailing, and trying to find sponsorship and updating the blog.
Design And Construction
Pat, Fergus and Mindaugas spent the majority of the day in the workshop. Aoife managed to link the work in the workshop to Dave who was busy detailing in the bays. They began creating a footing joint, which they would hope to have made by the end of the week.
Klara proceeded to buy wood with Steph, and they managed to negotiate early delivery so that the wood would be available in the workshop on friday. While in Wickes, they also sold the Shelter idea to one of the managers, and another possible investor was established.
Fundraising
Having seen other groups making lots of money from food, and the success of some selective options the day before, Katy, Sunita, Kawther and Tolani set about selling large quantities of Brownies and Cupcakes that Sam, Joe and Kawther had cooked the night before.
Jess handed out letters on the Crux Shelter, explaining the project and its intentions to various business sources.
Documentation
Aoife handed out small fliers with the Crux name, logo and blogspot page emblazened across. New posters for the Fifa event were made before the Social Event also.
More photographs were taken throughout the day, and the location for the videos and images were made available to the group. The blog was further enhanced with slideshows and new pages in the process of being added.
