Alumni X-MAS Event

„.. Last Christmas I gave you my heart, but the very next day you gave it away…”

This song by Wham and the sale of Lebkuchen in every supermarket is a clear sign that Christmas is coming closer. And even if the rainy autumn weather doesn’t quite awaken the Christmas spirit yet, EGEA Augsburg Alumni would like to invite you!

We would like to spend a wonderful, wintery day with you. On Saturday morning we will go explore some of Augsburg’s sights before we reminisce nostalgically of past times, while having lunch at the campus (don’t worry, we won’t revive those mediocre-mensa-memories). In the afternoon we will go ice-skating together; of course, this activity is only in preparation for the evening. Because, what better reason is there to drink Glühwein, if not to warm yourself back up? 😀

Augsburg has a range of Christmas markets, which we will explore, and get a taste of. This will round off the day, before we will make ourselves on our way back home.

Price

Unlike for other EGEA events, there is no fixed price, as you will pay only for the things you consume or take part in. We have listed costs below, so you can get an estimate.

Ice-Skating Entrance: 4€
Rental of Skates: 3.5€
Day-Ticket Public Transport: ~4-7€ (depends on group size)
Lunch: 10-15€
+ Glühwein & other consumables at the Christmas markets

Accommodation

As this is a one-day event we have not booked any accommodation, but if you are arriving from further away, we will try and find a host for you in Augsburg. Let us know with your registration whether you need a host.

Registration

Use this link to sign up until the 27th November 23:59 o’clock 😊

The Winter Organisation and Strategy Meeting is really important for EGEA – all the officials and interested EGEAns come together to discuss ideas and develop plans for the future of EGEA and the best part? You can be part of it!

If you have an idea for a topic, you can submit the idea here <https://forms.gle/Gbp8HKd28Xvh7EMx8>

Please note that some of the sessions might be hybrid sessions. So even if you can’t make it in person, you can still submit your ideas!

What to expect more?

EGEA Tartu has welcomed you for many international events this year and next year we are looking forward to NBRC 23 in Estonia. But we have not invited you to our univeristy town Tartu for a long time. We are happy to correct our mistakes. For evenings after the OSM program we have planned for you a sauna and Christmas market visit in Tartu. Of course there will also be a city tour and more fun activities in the evening. We will offer you home made meals made by Agnes and Marie.

accommodation

Accommodation will be in a lovely hostel called Tamme hostel. There will be rooms for 2-4 people in one room.
