Pick 'N' Mix

A while back, at the start of the semester us Interior Designers organized a Fundraiser night out at a local club to raise money for our fourth year degree show.

Throughout this year us second years have had to come up with quick and easy ways to raise as much money as we could for this coming June. Small events such as numerous bake sales, pub-crawls have all helped contribute to the increase in our money raised. The designing of a logo and web page are also other little things that help get recognition for our course.

A while back, a few people considered putting together a night out to celebrate our achievements but also to continue the fund raising until we meet our target.They came up with the idea of a night out, themed “Pick ‘N’ Mix”, where you could pick any song you want, request it or even mix it with another. To continue this theme, multiple bowls of sweets would be found around the club. The first 50 tickets sold would also get a handmade bag of sweets, to demonstrate what was to come. Lucky for us this was a big success both in terms of money raised and the amount of fun everyone had.

So another one is currently underway. “Pick ’N’ Mix” this time presents: Allsorts End of Year Party! We still wanted to promote “Pick ’N’ Mix” but let outsiders know that it’s slightly different, i.e. change in the venue. We also got two brand new Dj’s to help our supporters, bust their moves.

Fingers crossed this will be as big a success as the one before and we manage to achieve our target. If it wasn’t for the class support and the hard work from Miss Matthew and Mr Macdonald then we wouldn’t have done half as well as we have.
