RENDEZVOUS '93 S Y M B I O S I S hereby invites you to the biggest event of the summer... R E N D E Z V O U S ' 9 3 ----------------------------------- Where and when ? ------------------ This year the party will be held in Kristiansand, Norway's 5th largest town, and tourist-city number one ! To be more exact the party will be arranged in Badminton Senteret, a sports-hall located right outside Kristiansand centrum. The party will start on 30 July at 13:00 and will end on 1 August at 16:00 What will it cost ? --------------------- We will charge each one of you for 130 NOK at the entrance when you arrive. Then you'll be 'marked' so that we can see whether you have payed or not. Unfortunately, we do only accept payment in NOK. So make sure to change some money into this currency before arriving at the party-place. It's also a possibility to save some of this amount. If you pay in advance, we will only charge you for 100 NOK. You have to use our bank-giro for this service. Our number is 6325 05 60739, but make sure to pay at least 14 days before the party starts. Remember to bring your receipt from the bank, so that we can check that you've really payed. This one must be shown at the entrance. (Note that this service is for Norwegians only.) How do you get there ? ------------------------ Let us first of all locate Kristiansand at the map. The town is situated right at the bottom of Norway. If you come from Central Europe, you can simply go to Hirsthals in Northern Denmark, and then take the ferry directly to Kristiansand. The ferry has 4 departures every day, so it won't be THAT difficult to find one that fits. The company that runs these ferries is caled Color Line. For those of you who come from Northern Europe (Norway, Sweden or Finland), there goes trains directly to Kristiansand centrum. If you drive by car, you simly find E18 and follow this one to Kristiansand. If you come from EAST, drive until you reach a roundabout. Here you must take left, and then follow the signs saying eiter 'Badminton Senteret' or 'Rendezvous'. If you come from WEST, follow E18 through centrum, through a tunnel and then over a river. At the end of the bridge, follow the sign to 'Lund', and then the signs to the party-place. For the rich ones among you, there is also an airport outside Kristiansand, and a bus goes from it to Centrum. Remember to ask the bus-driver to stop at the bus-stop near Badminton Senteret. From centrum there goes buses quite often in the direction of the party-place. Simply ask the bus- driver to stop at the bus-stop near Badminton Senteret to get off at the right place. The following buses can be taken to get to Badminton Senteret: (But make sure that it goes the right way! (-:) 01, 02, 03, 04, 06, 07, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 23, 24, 35, 36. During the days of the party, we will mark the way from the bus- stop to the hall, and also the way to drive, if you go by car. What about competitions ? --------------------------- There will be the usual competitions at the party (Graphics, music and demo). We will also repeat the success from last year... The soccer- competition. We have got two play- grounds for this one, so we hope it'll be a great success. A 'wheel of fortune'-competiton will also be arranged, featuring some great prizes. Also look out for other surprise- competitions. (Those who come, will see.)
