Thanks to all of you who are sending us your pics from the ball.
We are working as hard as we can to get them all knocked into shape and on the site, so keep coming back, some of them are corkers.

FRIDAY 2nd SEPTEMBER 2005

The traditional 15th anniversary gift is Crystal, which leads us nicely to the theme of this year's Ball! This year's CRYSTAL BALL will glisten and enlighten - we predict you will have the night of your life in our crystalline kingdom.

If you have crossed our palms with 35 silver coins, we have forseen that you'll meet 3000 dark strangers: ice queens and crystal-beings, fortune tellers and 25th Century dwellers!

The Summer Ball is our biggest fundraiser of the year, an all night extravaganza of music in a marquee, on the cliff tops of St Agnes. Bands, DJs and performance artists entertain SAS members clad in the most outrageous fancy dress. The Darkness, Razorlight and Faithless have all played at past Balls and this year's line up is..as always, a closely guarded secret until the night!

Keep It Green

To reduce the environmental impact of the Ball, we're expanding the free bus service, with pickups from St Ives, Falmouth, Truro and St Agnes village centre, so why not take advantage of this green alternative? A Green Tax for car parking of £2 per car will be charged to help fund the bus service, but if you share your car with 3 others, it will only cost 50p each.

We're aiming for a 100% recycling rate this year, so have expanded the recycling facilities and are planning to use biodegradable cups and plates, which can be composted at the end of the night! So please do your bit and use the bins provided.

A couple of inconsiderate people left bulky items and broken glass on the site last year, which we had to clear up and dispose of. This meant we had to hire extra skips, which drained time and money from the campaign. Please make sure you use the bins provided or take your rubbish home with you.

Keep It Safe

Security will be tighter than ever this year and the campsite will be patrolled. However we strongly recommend that you minimise what you bring with you as we cannot guarantee the security of items left unattended. There will also be extra security at the gate to prevent parking on adjoining roads and any cars causing an obstruction will be towed away. There will be a police presence as cars leave the site, so don't even think about drinking and driving.

Final warning for any blaggers - no ticket or wristband, absolutely no entry!
