1. CAMPUS EXPO 28-29 OC, DL FOR REGISTRATION 27 OCT

This year, the campus expo of AYY and Aava will be organised in Töölö on Tue, 28 Oct and in Otaniemi on Wed, 29 Oct. In the campus expo, you can present your association activities to new students, sell overall badges and make new acquaintances. Your association can participate in one or several days.

During the day, display stands are open between 9:45-14:15. You can come prepare your display at 9:30. You are provided with a table and a chair but you must bring other material by yourself. Registration is now open at https://lomake.ayy.fi/aava/kampuskarkelot-28-29-10-2014/. Deadline is  Monday, 27.10. 6pm.

Further inquiries to Aava (aava@list.ayy.fi).

If you want, you can also organise an evening event in your own facilities where you can invite new members to get to know your activities. The purpose is not to arrange ”checkpoints” like in Otasuunnistus orienteering but activities which are typical to your association and which can be easily presented to all who are interested. Please mention your possible event idea in the registration form and we will add it to the event schedule.

Campus expo schedule:
Tue, 28 Oct, 9.45-14.15, the 1st expo day in Töölö
Wed, 29 Oct, 9.45-14.15, the 2nd expo day in Otaniemi

Official After Party at AYY’s recruitment sauna at Rantasauna starting 6pm.

Check up-to-date programme and the after party in facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/310801889105765/

2. SELL YOUR ASSOCIATION BADGES AT CAMPUS EXPO!

Would you like to have your association badges sold at AYY Campus Expo?

Please register with Mikko Unkuri (firstname.surname@ayy.fi) and mention the price and number of badges.

Badges are sold both in Otaniemi and Töölö, unless the association only wants to choose the other location.

Badges are delivered either to the campus on the expo day or in advance to AYY Central Office no later than 4pm on Mon, 27 Oct.

3. BORROW USEFUL BOOKS FROM AYY

Do you need more information how to run an association? Would you like to learn social media communications or go through history? AYY’s Central Office has several books on association activities, communications, management, well-being at work, interest representation and a pile of history books. Any association member or AYY member can borrow books. The exact list of books is available here: /yhdistykset/palvelut/yhdistyskirjallisuus/ You can request books from the organisation specialist (jarjestoasiat@ayy.fi). The majority of books are only available in Finnish.

4. WOULD YOU LIKE TO ORGANISE YOUR EVENTS MORE ECOLOGICALLY? CHECK OUT ”NEAT EVENT” GUIDE

AYY’s central office has received a pile of ”Neat Event! An environmental guide to event organisers” booklets. The guide includes excellent tips for organising events so that the load on the environment is as small as possible, without compromising the success of the event or effort caused for organisers. The guide covers transport, catering, waste disposal, and the use of materials. The guide is available at AYY’s Otaniemi Service Point  and the guide has also been delivered to the association mailboxes. Get your own copy!
