UCPO Social Calendar

The orchestra with a LIFE!

Regular event: Post-rehearsal pub trip

There is a trip to the Castle Inn (or the Pickerel, or other suitable pub) after every St Giles rehearsal, and a trip to Robinson College bar after any Selwyn Diamond rehearsals. We highly recommend joining these trips to the pub, as they are always lively and intelligent, and it’s a great opportunity to meet your fellow musicians.

Not-so-regular events

Curries

These happen on demand, in various places around Cambridge, invariably followed by a visit to a pub. Details will be circulated on soc-ucpo-misc, so make sure you’re on the list.

Dancing

There are also sporadic cheese nights on the menu (that’s dancing to cheesy 80s music rather than consumption of dairy products), AKA soc-ucpo-dancing. It would seem that the chosen venue for this is Soul Tree of a Thursday night, though if it ever happens again that I’m the only person there who DOESN’T know all the words to Britney Spears songs, I’ll be seriously rethinking the company I keep.

Other

Other not-so-regular events include picnics on Midsummer Common, or roving picnics along the river. Again, you’ll hear about these if you join our soc-ucpo-misc mailing list.

Next big events

End-of-year garden party

The traditional attempt to keep the Easter post-concert party going into the next day continues in 2008. This means that the garden party is tentatively happening on Wednesday 18 June, at a time and venue to be advised.

You can email the committee with queries about upcoming social events, or indeed suggestions as to new ones.
