Hey guys… the time has come for our AGM! We would love to see you there! Our society has been there for budding and established kitesurfers and watersports enthusiasts for years, providing opportunities to students to take a break from their studies and get involved with a great community. Without the support from the committee, we would not have been able to get where we are today. BUKS is now looking for a new team on the committee to help maintain and grow this awesome society. If you are interested in helping, get making a PowerPoint/video (it’s very informal don’t stress lol) and apply through the link in the WhatsApp chat! Come and tell us why you would be a good fit next Thursday (WE NEED A NEW GEORGE!!!)… See you then!
