OUSSA x OUNA Ball
Date: Friday 2nd August
Time & Location: Lone Star
It’s no surprise surveying leans towards a certain demographic, nutrition does the same. Why not make the best of both worlds and put them together.

Quiz Night
Date: Friday 16th August

Our quiz master lives for trivia, he knows stuff no one should know, so this years quiz will be a doozy. Never before have we had more support from sponsors, which means the prizes will be serious. A few drinks, some nibbles, just a great night. Big thanks to Total Surveying Solutions (TSS) for sponsoring this event!
