September 20: Kick-off!!!

Hi All!

Lets kick off the new academic year in the traditional Frontier-way – by getting together for some

Bowling & Pizza.

Time and place: September 20th, 6 p.m. (18.00) Porthania –> Pub –> 7-8 p.m Ruusulankatu Bowling –>Pizza Hut and pub crawl

Let’s meet in front of Porthania and make our way to the bowling alley together. We’ll have some time to grab a beer at a nearby pub – giving everyone an opportunity to get to know each other and a chance to us oldies to welcome our new members into our happy family

The bowling alleys are reserved from 7-8 p.m. BOWLING AND SHOE RENTAL WILL BE PAID BY FRONTIER!!! Those who want can come straight to the bowling alley (Ruusulan Keilahalli at Ruusulankatu 5 in Töölö). We’ll meet in front before 7.

After the good old all-American pastime we’ll move to the nearby Pizza Hut for some pizza, beer and good conversation. These unfortunately everybody have to purchase for themselves – except the conversation naturally being free of charge Last time we all shared the pizzas and it wasn’t all that expensive in the end…

(You should also prepare yourself for a pub crawl afterwards <— FULLY OPTIONAL but oh so much fun fun fun!!!)

YOU ARE ALL WARMLY WELCOME!

I’m expecting to see many members – old and new. Let’s make this a kick-ass awesome kick-off evening for everyone!
