NUCCC meeting?

Information for participants

Please send us an e-mail (nuccc (a) infa.fi) before 31.3.2000 if your student club want to attend NUCCC'00 and include the names of the participants and if there are any with special diet needs. We need a contact person from every student club attending and we would like you to inform us about your arrival and departure times as soon as you know. You should also tell us whether you will attend the dinner on Friday night or not.

Remember to bring sleeping bags since the nights will be spent in a school. Add name tags to your bags to find your bags easier after we have transported them to the school.

Maps

The conference will take place in the building called BioCity, which is located next to DataCity in the Technology Center. A map is available here. The port is located about 4 km to the south-west of the center of Turku, and the airport is about 7 km to the north. The bus number 1 will take you from the airport or the port to the main square. The bus number 42* will take you from the main square to the Technology Center. Leaves from outside McDonalds on the south side of the square. When you see these buildings you should get off the bus. The bus route goes from low right to low left over the bridge on the picture. The red building behind the ugly concrete silo is your target. The entrance is on the Lemminkäinenkatu. That is, from this side.

Pricing

The price for the weekend is 200 mk without the dinner on Friday night, 300 mk including the dinner.

200 mk (per person) includes:

Accomodation @ Kerttulin Koulu
Sitz @ Gadolinia

Contrary to popular belief there will be no sauna available during NUCCC. We apologize for the inconvinience. BUT, for those with extra time to spare on Friday or Sunday there is a excellent spa hotel called Caribia with resonable prices not far away. Look here for a map.

Information Leaflet

We will distribute information leaflets to all the participants. This leaflet will contain all the information you need during your stay in Åbo, for example maps and time tables.

Miscellanous

The IRC channel #nucc on IrcNet might be inhabitated by people who actually might know something.
