 Hey Loughborough $no!

 

I'm Georgia “Les Deux Alpes” Collins!!

 

Ive been part of $no since I was a fresher and have loved every minute of it! I’ve been involved in most socials, recreational trips, both the winter trips, BUDS, the Church, both $noBalls, and even On The Pond - one of five Lufbra $no!! I am going on the Easter trip coming up, so would have experienced both holidays that $no offers. I’m a real keen bean and want everyone that goes on either trip to have the best experience possible!

 

Why am I running for International Holiday Rep?

 

-My aim is to get the most cost effective deal, for the best location with the best slopes and nightlife. We are all students so money really does matter!

 

- I have had 6 holidays skiing and 1 snowboarding, and every time its been with 30 + people. I have seen successful trips and ones that could be better; $no holidays in my experience have been epic and I want to continue this successful reputation.

 

- I will make sure we have something for everyone, beginners, advanced freestylers alike.

 

-I will liaise with the social sec’s creating the best week of partying possible.

 

-I want to put the meal on the mountain in the evening because going down the slope with torches was crazy! This gives more time on the slopes and people (like me) wont be hanging from the previous night so can really enjoy it!!

 

-I believe the idea of race/freestyle ‘workshops’ whilst abroad offer variety and something new for people to try. I will try to provide more of these sessions in order to make the daytimes just as unforgettable as the evenings!

 

-In VT (winter 08), there was an AIR BAG meaning people could try out tricks with full confidence; this would be a great opportunity to find a location that has this again!

 

-I will make sure media gets as much of both weeks on film and ensure the best videos that you send in will be in the $no Movie!

 

-I want to be more involved in $no and help make everyone’s experience the best it can be.

 

 

What can I bring to $no?

- Boobs…. Only kidding! “I’m more than just boobs!!”

 

- I have been on dance committee 09-10 and understand the hard work and commitment needed. This will also benefit when I have to lease with the stash rep about holiday clothing as I have a lot of experience in that area.

 

- I want to make sure everyone can APPROACH me with what they want out of the holidays and I will do my best to make their ideas happen.

 

- I am ORGANISED, always having to cope with a thousand things at once- nothings ever too much for me!

 

- Get things sorted in advance; at the moment I teach dance classes, do uni work, stash, sing in a band and of course socialize… etc! (Next year I wont be on dance committee and I wont be teaching so will have lots more time on my hands to fill!)

 

- Great at COMMUNICATING with all kinds of people from companies to large groups to one on ones! I’m a drama student we are not shy people! 

 

- I’m good with budgeting (Dealt with a lot of dance money).

 

- I know how to have a good time!

 

- I will bring you the best holidays you will go on in 2010/2011.... MAYBE EVEN IN YOUR LIFE!!!

 

I really would love this opportunity and will make sure all the holidays run smoothly and are the highlights of your time at university!

 Hey Guys!!!!

 
I’m Sam and I hope that by now most of you know who I am. I would LOVE to be one of your new holiday representatives and to be part of what quite blatantly is the best committee in Loughborough!!!

 

So!! For those of you that I haven’t met yet (or have been to drunk on a $no social to remember any attempt of conversation) here are a few facts about me:

 

 

 

-     III’m in my first year, studying the poor man’s Sports science, aka. Sports Tech!

 

 

-       Love to travel…(I really can’t stay in one place for too long)

 

 

-       OBVIOUSLY love Lufbra $no…..I don’t care what non-members say, we are unrivalled in enthusiasm and general bant.

-       Live to ski in winter and surf all summer!!

-       Have a stable diet of jelly tots and diet coke J

 

What I’ve done:

 

- Worked as a ski instructor in Soell Austria, during my season 08-09!!

·      -   = Joined Lufbra $no as soon as I could and have attended the $no fresher’s party, ihalloween, Kings, BUDS, TheWinterTrip, $noball!!! (so  basically all $nocials)…I will also be repping on BUSC “THE MAIN EVENT”  so will be clued up on how both holidays run!

·      I - Have competed for the Loughborough race team in both KINGS and BUDS!!! Lufbra girls always dominating the scene!!! (and the bedroom!)

 

What I’ll do if you vote for me:

- Make sure that the high standards that Dougie and Beeby have set are kept and improved on…..to ensure that we can create yet another insane WINTER TRIP!!!

- I will be super organised in those months leading up to the trip!! It will be far from a chore…I will be really excited to make this an amazing    holiday for you guys!!!

- I want to find the perfect location with the best deal which will cater to everyone’s interests, whether it’s the park, black runs which get you pumped or you are just happy to cruise around, I will make sure you will not be disappointed!!!! 

- The race and freestyle sessions this past winter trip were a great success, therefore would make sure to organise more of them with qualified instructors!!! and organise a freestyle show down for maybe the last day of the trip!!!!!!.

- Work with the social secs to plan some awesome holiday socials whilst on the trip….. I’m thinking a holiday geek social! i.e. socks with sandals, shorts way to high, flowery shirts etc….

- Work with the media rep to ensure that all your drunken memories of the trip will not be forgotten!!! I want to create a $no video of both the winter and Easter trip. I also want to create a photo book with a mixture of everyone’s photos in which everyone one will get after the trip as a souvenir ……

-I really want to hear from you guys…you can have an input as you are the people of $no….I have already been in contact with past holiday reps so am clued up on what my job will entail!

- Help contribute in all different areas by supporting other committee members and by putting my opinions and ideas forward.

- Promote $no in a big way to get all the new fresher’s to sign up and enjoy it as much as I already have!!

 

VOTE SAM THOMAS FOR HOLIDAY REP - $NO BETTER ALTERNATIVE!!

Hello Loughborough $no!  I'm Colin Noakes and I'm running for Holiday Rep next year.

I've been in $no for 3 years now and been involved right from the start, making it to more $no events than I can remember (though that might have been the $nocials!).  This year despite being on placement miles away from Loughborough I've been as active as possible; making it to the $no Welcome Party, The Winter Trip and the $no-ball, and I will be hitting the slopes of Alpe d'Huez in three weeks for BUSC!

 

What I will bring to The Winter Trip and Loughborough $no....

 

·           Experience - I've been on three Winter Trips and been to BUSC twice with $no, so I know EXACTLY what makes a good $no Holiday abroad.  It also means I've been to plenty of different ski resorts; and I endeavour to pick one which has fantastic skiing, great après-ski and one which has the capacity to accommodate the whole of $no in one hotel.  I also speak fluent French, so I’ll be able to get problems sorted quickly in any French resort.

 

·           Great Value for Money - I will negotiate with all of the ski holiday providers to get the best deal for the club and its members.  I know how poor most students are, so will also aim to get good drinks deals and a well priced mountain meal while out in resort.

 

·           More Places - The Winter Trip sold out in record time last year; so I'll get more spaces for the biggest Winter Trip yet!  I'll also ensure the BUSC Easter Trip is advertised well to ensure good participation from Loughborough; we need to start rivalling Universities like Nottingham who take 300+ people to BUSC every year!

 

·           Organised - While out on placement I've had to be well organised every day; making sure reports get done on time, attending meetings, keeping to budgets and even organising assessment centres to recruit new employees.  This makes me ideal for a role where I’ll have to organise a holiday for more than 350 people!

 

·           Hard work - I'll do everything I can to contribute to other areas of $no as needed by the club.  $no is the best club in the AU and I aim to help keep it that way!  This year I've been working for HP, the World's biggest technology company, which has meant I've had loads of experience working with colleagues from places as far away India and the USA, this gives me the skills to liaise well with tour companies, other holiday reps while out in resort and other members of the $no committee to organise holiday stash and the pre and post holiday socials.

 

Unfortunately I can't attend $no elections due to being on placement, so hopefully I've written enough here to convince you to vote for me for $no Holiday Rep 10/11!



Au revoir and ski you soon! 

Colin
