There's no better way to get to know your optom peers than through a little competition. Come out for a fun night of bowling, and don't forget to wear tight and bright clothing! Please bring extra money if you want to buy any food or drinks!
Last year it was an arcade bar... this year it's a night of dancing, video games, and ping pong at Ace Ping Pong Lounge! Pizza will be provided and drinks will be available for purchase.
Get ready for one of the best nights of O-Week! Your Big Sib should tell you where their BBQ is being held. You will get the opportunity to mingle with a few of your classmates and second years... AND they feed you!
After the BBQ comes the pubs! Your entire class will meet at Huether Hotel, and then head over to Chainsaw for some karaoke. This is the perfect opportunity to get to know your classmates better and (try to) learn most of their names! It's also a great way to meet some upper years. Free cover and drink tickets provided!
This is definitely a class favourite. Rise and shine early in the morning to spend a full day at Canada's Wonderland, home of Canada's largest roller coasters and many other exciting attractions. Lunch will not be provided but feel free to bring one with you or buy one at the park!
The name says it all: hop on the bus and prepare to be taken to a mystery location! Last year the trip was a visit to Niagara Falls, but this year it is a completely new trip! Feel free to bring snacks on the bus, but dinner will be provided for everyone. This is definitely an event you don't want to miss out on!
The Canadian Association of Optometry Students will give you an introduction to the association and all of their initiatives!
Get dressed up with your classmates and fellow optometry students and attend the Kick-Off Semi Formal! It's a fun time dressing up with your new optom family and dancing the night away.
