Updates of coming activities

Here's an update of IMU Ball related activities which will be carried out from now till April 2009 =)

1. Decentralization Project
Duration:
January to March

Details :
This project was mentioned in the previous post, and as a gentle reminder, we're not forcing everyone to sell the booklets. We're only hoping for you all to do so, as an effort to help us raise the necessary funds to make this ball a success =)

Note:
1. We will still be donating 20% of our earnings to Rumah Jaireh regardless whether we hit our target sales or not. However, if we manage to sell all our notebooks, we will be able to donate RM 4500 to Rumah Jaireh!

2. We're not forcing anyone to sell the notebooks =) We're just hoping that everyone could take part in the sales, as IMU Ball is an event for ALL IMU students. We're trying to make this event a grand and successful event, thus we need extra hands to help =)

3. We're not using the name of charity for the sales. This event is mainly to raise funds for the ball, but we're allocating 20% of the earnings to Rumah Jaireh as we feel that it's the right thing to do =)


2. Jacket Sales
Duration:
End of February till March

Details:
We have designed the first ever IMU jacket for IMU students! We will be going around from batch to batch to promote its sales, so do not miss out the chance to own this "limited edition" IMU jacket!

3. Ball Ticket Sales
Duration:
February till April

Details:
The tickets are priced at RM120/ticket. We will be setting up a booth in the atrium on this duration, as well as going to batches to promote the sales. Do note that the sales will be conducted on a first come first serve basis.

Parties who purchase by a table of 8 will get a special privilege of:
- Selecting their table mates
- Selecting the location of the table (a layout of the hall will be presented only to those who buy by tables.)

Those who purchase the tickets individually,
- if you're the first 16 people, you will get to choose your table
- if you're the 17th person and thereafter, you will NOT be able to choose your table, nor your table mates. Table arrangements will be done randomly.

Note: The table is allocated for 8 persons, not 10 =)

Upon purchase, you will have to specify:
- Your choice of main course (fish, lamb, chicken, or vegetarian food)
- Whether you will be need us to provide you transportation to the venue (bear in mind, we will only provided buses to those who need it =)

p.s: Here's a map to Marriott Putrajaya, as reference to those who are driving there. And we're very happy to inform you all that the hotel will be charging a flat rate for us, compared to the usual per hour rate.

p.s: We have also a special rate for rooms, just in case you're planning to chill and relax in the hotel after the ball =) A discounted rate of RM175++ (original price: RM 400++)will be open to interested parties, but do let us know before hand.

There is always a Prom King and Prom Queen for every ball. So we will be opening the registration of nominess around March. Each batch will need to nominate one couple (or more) to participate in this annual contest, where the nominees will undergo a set of challenges. Through this, we will be selecting our ultimate Prom King and Queen!
