Planning Committee for the Fall Icebreaker Posted 02 Sep 12 @ 22:44:26 by Cataphrak ATTN: ARCers So it seems that our glorious President has decided to do something new for this semester's Icebreaker, as opposed to our normal method of slapping something together at the general meetings. This time around, we'll be forming a committee to help organize events, tables and activities. The first committee meeting will probably sometime before the end of the week (likely Friday). All ARCers are welcome to join in and share your ideas. Feel free to tell us if you are interested, and when you are free for a meeting. Paul Wang Communications Officer, Altered Reality Club

Welcome to the ARC (Summer 2012) Posted 17 May 12 @ 00:15:19 by Cataphrak Greetings to all of you new members who just signed up at Clubs Days this week and welcome back to all of our returning members. It's going to be one helluva ride here at the Altered Reality Club. We've got a lot of good stuff planned for the club this summer, and I hope that everyone here is able to come to and enjoy some of the big events we're brewing up this semester. First of all, we have a General Meeting coming up tomorrow (May 17th) at 4:30 PM at the Rotunda (right above the main gate). Drop by if you want to introduce yourself to the rest of the club, meet (or challenge) the executives or learn about the Icebreaker (May 23rd, 6:00 PM, MBC Conference Rooms), Summer Festival (July 21st), or the other events we have planned for this semester. Afterwards, we'll be going out for dinner at the LuLu Cafe off Lougheed. (More info at our Facebook Event Page HERE). We also hold some regular weekly events. The most important of these is Weekly Anime Screenings, which begin May 24th and will continue, every Thursday at 4:30 PM at AQ 5016. In addition, we have games of D&D, Pathfinder, Mutants and Masterminds, Dark heresy etc. spread out all over the week. Just talk to Jon (our gaming director) to see if you can find a game with an opening. Most importantly, remember to sign up at the SFSS' club registry HERE. That will be all, carry on.
