After the January period with classes and the festivities of December, February is the month that will be just as busy, because it is filled with great activities!

Starting the month of, the Semi-Annual General Members of Gyrinus natans will be held, where we as the 67th board will give our policy update and give insights into our association. 

This is then closely followed by two great activities, namely the Anatomy Lecture, where there will be a live dissection of a seal, and the Karaokeborrel, where you can let your inner Singstar let loose. The Anatomy Lecture will start at 16:00 ‘o clock in D107 and will take approximately one hour, after which you can come to the Karaokeborrel in De Tegenstelling. Both activities are free and open for everyone, so come by!

Then on the evening of Wednesday the 19th of February you can enjoy a carefully picked selection of high quality whiskies with us. These spirits will all have a common theme: Islands. If you’d like to know how this theme will affect our line-up, come join us on this wonderful evening for only €10,-.

Lastly, the Employee Borrel will be Tuesday, March 3rd. Here there will be a borrel especially organized for employees, which will have free drinks!

Dear Gyrini,

The sunny summer days are slowly being replaced by the rainy autumn days. The nights will be longer, and the days will be shorter. The t-shirts will be replaced by coats. The wind is very cold. Once you arrive home you put on your comfy outfit and take a seat at the warm fireplace. Nana’s famous stew has been simmering on the stove all day. Staring through the window watching the leaves fall of the trees you think: “aahhh autumn.” What is missing on a night like this? Exactly, a collection of the most delicious bock beers. Autumn is coming and so is the Bock Beer Borrel on Friday the 25th of October at de Tegenstelling! We open our doors to give you a warm welcome and provide you with the best season bound bock beers!

Love,
Alcoholaat
