== URY Winter Formal== | |||
The URY Winter Formal is a yearly dinner organised by the social secretaries that usually takes place in the Christmas/Winter season. The 2025/2026 Winter Formal was renamed 'The Winter-ish Formal' due to it being postponed by two months over the winter break. Despite this the formal was a major success and many fond memories were made. Ned Connors (the secretary at the time) busted out some sick 'white boy' moves on the hard stone floor of Dusk to Zara Larsson's 'Midnight Sun'. | |||
The formal also marked the start of the URY Winter Awards which showed appreciation for the most involved members of URY | |||
