President's Report
- Hello Gamers!
- This year, I’ve devoted a lot of my time towards pushing for mundane clubroom improvement
- This is mostly lots of emails and phone calls and more emails when people don’t respond to your emails, but meaningfully meant that we got a new high end aircon and just this week had our custom gaming table delivered and in the room!
- Additionally, now the table is in, I’m researching new furniture to buy to fill out our storage and pretty up the room!
- I’ve also been working with Charlotte, the current tenancy chair, to really push for cleaning up and repairing Cameron hall, which is already borne fruit!
- In terms of major events, I ran camp with Jackie- Leading, cooking dinners and managing the fire
- I also implemented the new Shepherd’s Pie dinner for the first time, to positive review!
- When Luna was incapacitated in July, I picked up the librarian duties and completed this semesters book buy.
- I’ve done food runs and drink runs and furniture runs, and finally been working as a second pair of hands when needed.

Treasurer's Report
- hi team! its been a whole semester
- the account balance started at $11,195.82
- and is currently $5,491.12 and will be going down because we have spent lots on money on a number of things this semester
- the biggest purchase we made, as you may have seen, is our cool new gamer table costing $6,209.00 along with the next biggest purchase that hasnt gone through for MTG jumpstart supplies and set boosters for members to purchase with the goal of making some profit off of them
- we made our bookbuy purchase for this year ($356.15) with the games night dedicated to them this thursday!
- of the things i did this semester, i started the process of getting the aircon fixed, did semester grants, getting back $705.09 back from them, resubmitted the envirogrant for can hall to still no avail, got my lvl 1 slt and am trying to get lvl 2 for camp (its cool if i dont though thanks leigh) and i also started adjusting unigames prices due to inflation, killing the 80c can

OCM's Reports
Chris // initiative: 4 of 6
- Hey Everyone! This year so far has been a wild ride.
- Over the course of the early lockdown this year, me and Emerald discussed a potential Tabletop simulator event, which ended up coming to fruition after camp’s unfortunate covid problem.
- I helped a little bit (key word: little, thanks cap’n David for carrying) with the carpeting, but have since organized the One-Page RPG and the second Dungeons and Dragons One-shot Nights. Camp was a great time, where I aided with the quiz night, writing questions with completely valid answers, none of which I regret.
- Unfortunately I have recently had a bout of the spicy flu, but that has not stopped me, and I am ready to go for an absolutely packed semester two with some exciting events coming up.
