Hally Ball Tournament 2022

Bestuur
Dear, dear friends,
 
Since the Tegenstelling closed, we know you haven’t been drinking a lot. Or even worse, you stopped drinking at all. The Alcoholaat knows that you feel bad about that. And because you feel bad about your lack of alcohol consumption, you have some catching up to do! Now I hear you thinking: how am I ever going to catch this up? Don’t stress, because we’ve come up with the best option ever … drum roll … a Hally Ball tournament! Yes, you heard it correctly! And don’t even worry about running out of beer because you’re dealing with the Alcoholaat here 😉
Alright, let’s get the facts straight:
On the 19th of February (2 pm) @ Uilenstede, the Alcoholaat will host the most epic Hally Ball tournament of 2022, and you most definitely DON’T want to miss this! Find yourself a team of up to 4-6 people, or assign yourself to a random group. Participation is 5 euros (snacks are included). So? What are you waiting for? Sign up quickly via www.gyrinus.nl/hallyball
 
Love, 
Alcoholaat

Write a Christmas Card for the Elderly

Bestuur

[:nl]Dear Gyrini, 

Let the countdown begin… because Christmas is just around the corner! A good prospect to relax during the holidays after the last exam week of the year. In addition to good food and conviviality, Christmas is also about caring and that is why, just like in previous years, we want to distribute Christmas cards among the elderly in the Netherlands. Loneliness is common during this time of the year and this needs to be changed! Help us by making a difference and fill a card with a personal message, poem, encouraging words or something else creative. You can write your message in English in the form https://www.gyrinus.nl/christmascards/ and we will translate the message and write the card for you. You can also leave a message in Dutch or write it in a card yourself in the Gyrinusroom (WN-PO22). The cards can be handed in until Thursday December 9th at 17.00h.  Thank you on behalf of the national elderly care fund and the Actcie, who will ensure your card gets to the right address.

With love, Actcie
