Description

The ACA UofT Student Chapter is proud to bring you the 2019 Archival Olympics! We're going old school and bringing back an annual event that was once very popular in the ACA's history.

Create a team of 3-4 of your friends and go head-to-head against other teams in "gruelling" physical and mental games that will test your worth as an archivist! Does your team have what it takes to win gold*??

Your team will face the following challenges:

  1. File Folder Arrangement

  2. The 40lb Strength Test

  3. Archival Relay & Reference Race

Who you choose as your teammates could determine your ranking in the Olympics so choose wisely!

It is finally time to put your archival theory to the test for this year's ARCHIVAL OLYMPICS! Register your team today! Each Team Member should register separately; just make sure you provide your Team Name so we can group all your members together. .If you do not have a team yet, don't fret! Register yourself anyway and we'll put you into a team with other individuals that also do not have a team. Registration closes January 17, 2019 at 5PM.
