Ths Farm attended SemiPermanent08 this year and here are some of the highlights:

It was an all out battle between 2 appointed teams from The Farm. The race was an orienteering treasure hunt around Sydney harbour. The winning team won by a substantial margin, despite being the target of the other teams water bottle canons. Naturally the winning team was blamed for cheating and though this is not true, they didn't actually sail their boat the entire race. The winning team simply realized that by knowing the answers to the orienteering questions, they didn't actually have to race the boat around the harbour!

The losing captain was to wear the captains hat in the office for the next week. Chris did not live up to the challenge!

The Winning Team: CAPTAIN Vanessa Liberiou, FIRST MATE Wade Kuhn, John Guest, Tom Byrne, Shannon Deminick, Nick Fernley, Daniel Holmes, Dillon Liu, Peter Burns

The Runners Up: CAPTAIN Chris Rann, Mark Kemper, Angela Thomas, Hugo Vann, Anthony Dang, Chris Pile, Ken Macleod, Chris Martin, James Heath

For April's team activity we split into two teams and set to the harbour with Sydney By Sail. Each boat had to solve clues and race to points on the harbour to uncover the final destination. There was much banter and it proved to be a tactical affair, but whilst the "A Call to Farms" skippered by Rann clearly had the brawn it was the guile & intelligence of Liberiou's "Blow Hards" that won the day.

The winning team lunched out at Pizze e Birre (well, will do), with the LOSERS left collecting their thoughts in the office.
