IntroductionThe purpose of Rag is to bond the Medical Faculty, especially getting the freshmen united together along with the REST of Medicine with our Float and Dance Production.
As MediCamp inducts and orientates our M1s-to-be, Med Rag is the FIRST EVER showcase of our MEDICINE METTLE to the REST of NUS. This is why it means so much to us.
If you would like to know more about our Med Rag theme (which is undisclosed for now), it concerns the
dreams and aspirations of one taking flight.
The prospects of our chosen theme as well as the embryonic designs for the Float and Dance are very very promising, and
we look forward to bringing back the Trophy which we claimed last year baby.
Here’s where we will be needing help in:Basically - cash, manpower and kind (materials etc).
Please help us (where you can) in the following, in any way at all really (even if it’s just sewing ONE costume, or donating a box of nails):
FUNDINGThis is such a turn off, but please hear our plight:
MED RAG IS SELF FUNDING – ie ALL THE MONEY HAS TO BE SELF RAISED OR FROM OUR OWN POCKETS.
We do NOT get any money at all from Med Soc. Yes, it’s really an uphill task.
And with that, we need to raise a total of $6.5k at least, which covers construction cost, truck rental, welfare for the people, and professional engineer inspection (this is a retarded NUSSU requirement that costs us $2k). We expect to exceed it, as this is a conservative estimate.
