What is Get Spotted?

Get Spotted is a photo based competition being run during freshers’ week 2009.  Individually or in pairs, the challenge is to Get Spotted in set places or with set people – with your big Red Spot. Points are awarded depending on difficulty.

Who runs Get Spotted and why?

Get Spotted is run for Cambridge RAG and the SCA. Cambridge RAG (Raiding and Giving) is the charity and fundraising society of the university. The SCA (Student Community Action) work to get students volunteering in the community. More information is on the spot. This year, Get Spotted is being run by Ben Gadsby and Rebecca Gemmell.

Ok, so what do I get out of it?

The team with the most points at the end of the competition will win £100 cash, with runner-up prizes of £50 and £25. There will also be prizes for interesting, unusal, wierd and wacky photos.
