Over the course of the year, we ran a total of 25 events, all listed on wolves and announced on Discord.
We ran regular weekly activities on Wednesday,
using our Discord Server and emails to inform our members of upcoming events and opportunities.
Our Discord server was our social hub of communication between members and committee
and has now grown to have ~300 members.

We also collaborated a lot with other societies, which helped bring a lot of new eyes to us and to what we do.

We used posters for larger events, since we began putting more effort and quality into the creation of our posters.
This helped create a more professional image for our society and helped us stand out from other societies.

### Other Societies
We worked with several Societies over the last year
which has meant more advertising for our society in addition to helping other societies grow.
This includes collaborations and larger-scale events like our Birthday event, SISTEM, and our Unity Workshop.

### Posters
This year included a shift in our approach to posters.
We decided to put more effort and quality into the creation of our posters,
which also made them difficult to create for weekly events.
Thus,
we could ensure that our larger events had more powerful visuals
and helped communicate to our members that this event is more significant than our weekly events.

### Event Announcements
We primarily used Discord and Emails for our event announcements,
while prompting our users to sign up for events on Wolves.
This helped us keep track of who was attending our events and allowed us to send out reminders to our members.
Our Discord server also allowed us to quickly issue reminders or updates to our members, which greatly improved our communication.

To prove trip attendance, please see <<https://cp.ulwolves.ie/manage/events/16284>>
This was a trip made by UL Computer Society to PyCon Ireland 2024,
This was a trip made by UL Computer Society to PyCon Ireland 2024,
hosted in the Radisson Blu Hotel in Dublin on November 16th-November 17th, 2024.
This section will cover the organization of the trip.
Since we had to find transportation for this trip, preparation for this event took a lot of organization.
Thankfully, we had lots of information from previous years to help us with this.
We arranged transport for all members to and from Dublin & Limerick, and their event tickets.
The cost for both transport and tickets was subsidized from us,
making attendance to the event much cheaper for our members.
We used interest checks and surveys to gauge how many members were interested in attending the event, using that information to know how many tickets we needed to buy.
We were also able to negotiate a group discount for the tickets, which helped us save money.
Once we had the numbers regarding who were planning on attending,
we booked the tickets for the events and the buses from Limerick to Dublin and back.
Things went smoothly, and we were able to adhere to our initial itinerary.
We didn't have to rush coming back to Limerick, since we gave ourselves plenty of time to get back.
This gave us more time for things like unplanned bathroom breaks.

### SISTEM
In Semester 2 of this year we helped run an event called SISTEM,
the Student Inter-Society Technology and Enterprise Meetup.
This was a large event that happened in the Kemmy Business School on March 29th, 2025.
Usually, this event is run by multiple societies, across multiple universities in Ireland.
It is the largest event of its kind in Ireland, an entirely-student run event.

In addition to the sponsorship and assistance, we also had industry speakers from companies like Google, and LERO at the event.
They would give talks about specific topics they're currently working on, with plenty of time for questions and answers.

One of the more impressive events that UL Computer Society was able to run this year,
we were able to hit the record for the number of pizzas ordered for an event in UL history.
