Ventact 4th-6th September


I know this was way back in September, but it's worth a mention. Ventact is a weekend activity held every September in Kilcully. It's a National Event, so there were Ventures from all over the country. We saw some familiar faces from WSJ 2007 actually! Only Frank, Iollann and myself actually went, which was alright, considering at the time there was only 5 Ventures at the time. The main, ticketed activities were on Saturday, which ranged from Archery to Caving to Windsurfing.  I went to a naval base in Haulbowline, and Frank and Iollann both went to ''Boot Camp'', run by the Army, which basically involved a lot of mud and push-ups. There was also a disco that night. Foam machines, and lasers and all that craic. Nothing much happened on the Sunday, people just sort of left,  regardless of the fact that there was meant to be a Closing Ceremony. Oh well. That seems to be the way Ventures works....
