Even though it's not my turn yet, I have to let you know about one awesome possibility to get to Experience 2010 in Norway (which I know you all want to) and to get active:
Some crazy folks from Germany and Switzerland don't feel like getting on a plane to get to Norway. We'd rather travel with style through Scandinavia - by canoe.
The plan is to start our journey in Hamburg on July 23rd by bus, to meet UNF in Helsingborg, to spend one night in IOGT-NTO's Folkhögskola Wendelsberg and to start paddling from Årjäng (Sweden) on the 25th. Then, on the 31st, we'll get back on the bus and be on our way to Active's summer camp Experience 2010 in Fredrikstad (Norway), where you can help to shape the future of the sobriety movement in both Active's and IOGT International's congress and take part in all kinds of creative activities, inspiring workshops and thought-provoking discussions.
After these two weeks we'll arrive back in Hamburg on the 8th of August in the late afternoon.
If you want to join this little adventure, you can travel to Hamburg and enjoy the all-inclusive package from there or you can join us somewhere on the way.
The price for the entire two weeks, incl. the camp fee, is greatly depending on the number of participants, but we're aiming for something around 420,- EUR (maybe even less, if enough people join and we get a few donations more).
Unfortunately the website for registration is in German only, but with the help of Google Translate and the info that Germans enter dates in the format of DD.MM.YYYY you should be able to register yourself for this active trip with Active folks here:
And one more info: This tour is only going to happen, if at least 25 people sign up and the canoe renter needs our confirmation A.S.A.P.! So ... are you in for it?
Hoping that you're just as crazy as them,
Rosi, Max and many other participants from Juvente Germany's congress
