Terracon is UniSFA's annual camp, which usually takes place during the first semester holidays.
In 2010, Terracon will be held at Donnelly River Holiday Village, from the 25th to the 28th of June. Download a Terracon form here: TerraconForm.pdf and hand it into a Committee. A map to the camp site can be found at donnelly_route.pdf. Previous locations for Terracon have included:
- Wellington Mills Cottages
Tone River Cottages, 42km South-East of Manjimup
Myalup Pines, near Harvey
List of IMPORTANT links for Terracon:
Given that the RFT signup page seems not to be working (try now), and for the purposes of general brain-storming, go to RFT2009.
Traditional events
Given the high turnover of members in a university club "tradition" just means it has happened at least two years in row.
SlaveAuction: Committee is sold off
IronStomach: People compete to eat horrible things. May have been first run in 1989.
- Terracon's Amazing Race: a cheap rip-off of The Amazing Race involving string.
TrolleyRaces: Race using shopping trolleys. Doesn't happen any more.
RadioFreeTerracon: radio station run from the camp
Spotlight: The most awesome event of recent Terracons. No, really.
Bartok: An evil card game, where the aim is to make the other players' brains implode.
GodElections: election of important non-committee positions
the Quest. Not in recent years.
- Disco: music, dancing and whatnot. Started in 2008 when the theme was 80s-90s, repeated in 2009 as an 'end of the world' party.
- water fights (sometimes spontaneous, sometimes scheduled)
Zompocalypse: Now three years!
