Among Us Social

Join us on Saturday 28th at 7:00 until 9:00 (approx) for our Among Us Social!
Even if you’ve never played it before, it’s really easy to pick up and play, so please do join us!
All you need to do before coming along is to download the among us app for free from your app store and then just come along to our zoom call!
See you all there💙

Would I Lie To You?

Join us for a fun evening to find out whose telling the truth and who’s caught in a web of their own lies! 🤷‍♀️🔎

This social will be a team social so come along with a team in mind or just turn up and we’ll put you in a group. Each team will be competing against each other to work out who’s are lying.🤥

All we ask is that you come prepared with a TRUE story or fact about yourself that you are happy to share with the group! It could be about the time you were an extra in that TV show or maybe your best friend’s second cousin was on Love Island or maybe you just really really hate stick insects! Your story can be as unbelievable or believable as you like as long as it is 100% TRUE!!

If you want to come along but don’t want to share a story then don’t feel pressured!

Zoom Links to follow shortly!

Hope to see you all there! 💙

Halloween Pumpkin Carving!

Join us on Zoom, along with a pumpkin, for our virtual carving party! Spooky costumes are encouraged, but not required, and if you can’t get hold of a pumpkin grab some paper as our fundraising secretary, Megan, will be sharing some creepy crafts!

This is a members only event but we would love you to join us! Buy your membership here for only £2.50: bit.ly/contemporarychoir

 

Games Night!

Join us for a virtual games night at 7pm on Zoom! We’ll be playing a variety of games such as Pictionary, Werewolves, and Codenames and you’ll be able to pick and choose which games you get involved with by moving between rooms.  This will be a great opportunity to meet other members and we would love to see you there!

This is an open social, so you do not need to be a member to come along – treat it as another taster if you didn’t manage to come along to one of our Freshers’ events!

Join the event here:

Virtual Choir Launch!

Join us as we launch the FIRST of our virtual choir projects this term. We are hoping to put together a Gareth Malone style virtual choir. This is a super exciting project and it’ll be a great way to get involved and to meet new people! In the rehearsal we’ll be putting you into voice part breakout rooms to preview our tailored tutorial video! This is going to be a great opportunity to meet other singers in your voice part!
Afterwards they’ll be a chance to ask our music team any questions that you may have about the piece. And be sure to hang around after the rehearsal for some icebreaker activities and a chat!
Zoom link: https://Universityofexeter.zoom.us/s/96532667888
