Updates: Clubs’ Days and Icebreaker 2012
The gears are in motion for the Anime Club. We will have a presence at UBC’s Clubs’ Days and host our very own Icebreaker! Membership for the club will be sold at both events.
Clubs’ Days this year will be on the 19th and 20th (10AM-4PM) and 21st (10AM-3PM). The Anime Club will have a booth in the SUB Party room (located on the 2nd floor of the Student Union Building). This is an excellent opportunity to buy membership and ask questions.
The Anime Club Icebreaker will be held on Friday September 21st. This is your chance to meet other members, play some fun anime-related games, win PRIZES and watch an anime movie! You do NOT need to be a member to attend. The Icebreaker is another opportunity for you to sign up for membership. The chosen movie for the Icebreaker is a classic, Howl’s Moving Castle. For more information, see the Facebook Event.
We hope to see you soon!
