1. Application period for the operating grant and the submitting of association notices to begin on 1 March
The submitting of AYY’s association notices and the application period for the operating grant will begin on Saturday, 1 March. The form will open at midnight at https://lomake.ayy.fi/yhdistykset/ayyn-toiminta-avustushakemus-2014/ and you can fill out the form during March. All associations in the register must fill out the association notice. If the association notice is not submitted in two consecutive years, the association will be removed from AYY’s association register. All associations approved in the first list of AYY’s association register may apply for the operating grant.
For the association notice, you will need the annual report, action plan, list of association officials and the association rules. In order to apply for the operating grant, you will also need the budget, balance sheet, income statement and information about grants that your association has received in the past two years. In addition, your association may also apply for an increased operating grant, which is usually granted for one-time special events or projects during the year. Further information on the allocated grants is available at /apurahat-yhdistyksille/, which includes the scoring model used for the allocation of the operating grants and the grant amounts of the previous year. You can have a look at the form from the previous year: /wp-content/uploads/Avustushakulomake-2013.pdf (opens as PDF file).
The prerequisite for the operating grant is the association profile at AYY.fi, and the associations are responsible for updating their profiles. If you have lost your user name or otherwise need help with updating your profile, you can send e-mail to jarjestoasiat@ayy.fi. Please fill out the form carefully and reserve enough time to fill it out. Operating grants are allocated based only on the information in the form.
You can receive additional information and help with the association notice and the operating grant application from the organisation sector, which can be reached at jarjestoasiat@ayy.fi. You can also contact the organisation specialist by phone at 050 520 9442. The best time to reach the organisation specialist by phone is on weekdays from 10am to 2pm.
2. Shrovetide celebrations at Kaivopuisto Park on 4 March
On Shrove Tuesday, 4 Mar 2014, students are cheered up by shrovetide celebrations that will take place at Ullanlinnanmäki hill at Kaivopuisto Park in Helsinki!
During the delightful, snowy and action-packed afternoon, the hill is filled with sledges, gliders and happy students from the metropolitan region and beyond. Bring your sledge and slide down the hill!
Along with sliding and all the fun, there will be music, competitions and great events. The highlight of the day is ABB’s legendary academic sliding competition, where teams compete against each other with the most innovative and most spectacular devices for the title of the greatest sliding vehicle. In previous years, we have seen cars, fighter jets, tanks, as well as the death of the Dragon, and sliding the hill from bottom to top. Come and see who wins the competition this time! Or if you can hold a hammer and steer a slide, you can gather your own team and sign up. Rules and registration instructions can be found at http://www.laskiaisrieha.fi/
Keep yourself up to date and have a look at the fb-event:

The best time to come is between 1pm-5pm. However, the celebration does not end there but will continue until the dawn at Gravitaatio party in the centre of Helsinki.
Gravitaatio fb-event can be found here:

ABB, AFYE, AYY and ED energy drink will participate in the event!
PS. Make the world a better place and put the garbage in the bin at Ullanlinnanmäki.
If your organisation wants to bring tents, grills, gas cylinders or something crazy/absurd, please send us email to info@laskiaisrieha.fi no later than one week prior to the event. Any kind of action is more than welcome!
