Topic - BUSA Photos
Can anyone who took photos of BUSA at the weekend try and send them to me in electronic format. Scanned in photos or ones taken by a digital camera will both be welcomed. I'll try and post them up on the photos page. I also need them to try and grab more new members at our fresher's fair next term - so the flashier the better! Any subject matter is good - the shooting line, people in various states of drunkeness etc. Send them to me at my physics email address at oka20@phy.cam.ac.uk so that they don't bounce.

Will hopefully get the results posted here as quickly as possible once I receive them. Oh, and spesh is indeed a fine drink!

Target list is more up to date than the participants list below it. Go on the target list - if you're on it you're shooting. There is a slight change to be made to this but will only affect you if you're from Exeter.

Final Numbers for BUSA:

8 compound gents (1 novice)
4 compound ladies
106 recurve gents (24 novices)
46 recurve ladies (13 novices)

164 in total plus some guests
Thats by far the biggest entry since at least 1995 if not earlier.

Just been on the phone to Lilleshall:
If the really wet weather continues parking will not be available alongside the shooting field for BUSA. Rather, you may have to park in the main car parks - and walk down a few hundred metres. Else your cars/minibusses are liable to get stuck in the mud! Should be ok for putting tents up though, just bring boots!
Ill let you know the definate situation nearer the time.

The BUSA entry forms were posted on Wednesday 2nd Class from BUSA London. They should be with your AU today (Friday 20th April). Please can you also email me your entry when you send the form off to BUSA to enable me to organise target lists as early as possible.

You probably won't be able to see this until Monday but by then directions and accommodation info should be fully updated.
