Jolly good fun in Mackay 

Published on 02 March, 2006 

As far as O-Week activities go, the Pirate Interfaculty Games at CQU Mackay this week was a pretty good one.

The brainchild of Leeanne Kippen of the Student Association (who inherited the theme Welcome Aboard when she commenced on campus just 4 weeks ago) was a great success and thoroughly enjoyed by both participants and spectators alike.

Following the games, the UniMart prize draw took place with approximately 40 prizes given away, including a trip for two from Fantasea Cruises to DayDream Island, courtesy of Travel Crew, a weekend for two at Club Croc in Airlie Beach, three gym memberships, a DVD player and printer and many free dinners, passes and vouchers from local Mackay businesses.
