The Gathering 1997 Bustrip by orange

The bustrip to The Gathering'97
The Gathering'97 will most likely be the biggest Scandinavian
demoparty in 1997.
Last year there were almost 3000 visitors at The Gathering'96, 12
of them being Finns. Most of us agreed that it was one of the best
big Scandinavian demoparties we had been to in years, and thought
that more Finns MUST attend it in 1997.
So we decided to start planning a bustrip.
The plans started to become reality when Primon organized a
bustrip to The Party 1996 last x-mas. The bustrip was not only
fun, but it was cheap too.
After The Party 1996 we started thinking that there definitely
should be a chance for more Finns to attend what we think as the
most promising and probably the biggest party in 1997. After a few
dozen phonecalls and some hours of hard thinking, everything was
ready and confirmed.
Here are some of the reasons why YOU should attend the bustrip:
* The bustrip is VERY cheap.
350fim for males
320fim for females (!)
Yes, the boattrip is is included in the price.
* Norway is not there for partying only.
How about some skiing, or perhaps snowboarding?
Or how about a cheap holiday trip to Norway with
your girlfriend? Sure, they have hotels there too :-)
* The athmosphere on the bustrip will be very relaxed.
Videos will be shown too. Got any home/partyvideos or
just other movies you'd like to show? Bring them!
* Remember the prizes on boat: Very cheap..
But be fast!
The bus has 50 seats. Around 30 of them have already
been reserved before this intro was released. The
bus company wants to know the complete list of people
attending on the 7th of March already (and there is nothing
we can do about this).
Swedish sceners are also welcome on our trip (of course
you will have to pay the same prizes even if you ain't
taking part in the boattrips :).
Some details:
The bus will leave from Hmeenlinna, Finland on Wednesday
the 26th of March. The next stop will be Helsinki, and
then we're off to Turku where the nightboat (Viking
Rosella) leaves from.
The boat will arrive to Stockholm, from where the trip
continues through Sweden.
We will cross the Norwegian border around early afternoon
on the 27th of March.
Then it's partytime.
We will leave the partyplace on the 30th of March and
we'll be back in Turku on Monday the 31th of March. The
return boat will be Viking Amorella.
Further details will be given to the persons attending
the bustrip. If any details are changed, they will be
reported.
Don't worry, the prizes won't change :-).
