- May Ball Committee 2010
It might only seem like a matter of months since the success of this years Jasmine Ball, but preparations for Christ’s May Ball 2010 are already underway and now your college needs you!
At the beginning of next term we will be recruiting for the next Committee and we want as many freshers and second years to get keen as possible. Not only does a committee role look great on a CV but it is a really enjoyable experience and a fantastic thing to achieve.
So if you think you have an amazing theme idea and wouldn’t mind having £100,000 at your disposal to make it happen watch out for more details about how to apply around college and in the next bulletin!
Until then May Ball love
Jordanna, Flo and Brendan
