Escape the W&N

Bestuur

You’re finally back at the VU, but all you want to do is get out… FAST!

On October 9 the Technicie will take you back to the W&N building, where you will uncover the mysteries surrounding one fateful Stellingavond. In a one hour Zoom session, you will need to figure out exactly what happened at the VU, and get out as quickly as possible.

Practical info:
The sessions will take place on Friday night between 18:30 and 21:30 via Zoom. On Thursday, we will announce the groups and session start and end times, so keep the night open! Sign-up closes Wednesday October 7 at 23:59!

Rules:
During the session, you are not allowed to search the internet for answers or communicate outside of the zoom meeting with other players (of any group). If we suspect anyone of cheating, we will terminate the session.

Sign-up via: www.gyrinus.nl/escaperoom !

Vondelpark Clean-up

Bestuur
Dear Gyrini,
 
The school year has started again. Whats a better way to start this school year than help creating a less polluted
environment. Thanks to the nice weather, people are going to the parks to relax. This also means more trash in the Vondelpark. Of course, only cleaning up the Vondelpark doesn’t solve the current issues regarding our polluted environment, but doing something is always better than doing nothing. Do you want to join us in cleaning up the Vondelpark on October 6th from 14:00 until 16:00? Sign up now by sending an email to ln.su1606915411niryg1606915411@eict1606915411ca1606915411!
 
Scared you are going to get dirty? Don’t worry! We will be wearing jackets and will use pickers (afvalgrijpers).
We hope to see you soon (from a distance)
 
With love,
 
Actcie

September borrels @ De Blauwe Engel

Bestuur
Dear members,
 
We hope you all enjoyed the ESA as much as we did. Unfortunately, we have to wait a bit longer before we can go back to the Stelling, but this doesn’t mean we can’t continue borreling! That’s why we will continue our Wednesday borrels.
Every Wednesday in September from 19:30 till 23:30, we will be borreling at De Blauwe Engel.
You can sign up for the borrels by filling in this form: https://www.gyrinus.nl/borrels/ 
For this Wednesday (September 9th) we’ll work with ‘first come first serve’. For the other borrels we will make a schedule when everybody can come, so everybody can attend as much borrels as possible. When filling in the forms make sure you are available when you say you are, because when we assign a date to you, we expect you to be there.
 
Best wishes,
 
The 67th board

ESA@Thuishaven

Bestuur

Dear members,
on Monday the first week of the college year will start again. Normally this means the Stelling will open soon (the best day of the year!) However, sadly enough we can’t borrel in the Stelling yet, but fortunately this doesn’t mean we can’t start the new year with lots of friends, lots of drinks and lots of fun! That is why Wednesday September 2nd we will have our anual ESA at Thuishaven, from 19:30 till 00:00!!

We want to point out to you that we will not serve alcohol if you are not 18 yet.
We want to remind you all to keep in mind the Corona virus, so if you are feeling ill please stay home.
Stay healthy and we hope to see many of you September 2nd! The sign up link for the ESA is the following: https://www.gyrinus.nl/esa/.

Lots of love,

the 67th board 

Sign up for our social drinks!

Bestuur

Dear members,
Corona is been going on for a while now, and although we may be getting a bit used to it now; we have had a lot of fun online activities we really enjoyed, the one thing we are really missing is our weekly ‘borrels’. You too? In that case we have good news! Starting the first of July we will organize borrels again every Wednesday in July! Since we can’t use our beloved Tegenstelling, these borrels will be held in Il caffe! There are limited places (50) so you have to enrolle through the sign up link! Here you can state which dates you want to join the borrel and with whom, and we will make a schedule when everyone can come. We will try to make sure everyone gets to join as much borrels as possible, but for July first: first come first serve. When you sign up for a certain date we do expect you to show up so fill in the forms with care! In the weekend before the borrel you will receive an email if you can come.

Since there is limited places, members will have priority. The borrel will take place from 21:00-00:00 at Il Caffe.To celebrate our first borrel, we will kick off with a bbq at Il caffe. We have 30places so be quick to claim your spot. The costs for the bbq wil be €15,00.

Sign up link: gyrinus.nl/socialdrinks

We want to remind you all to keep in mind current measures regarding Corona, and if you are feeling ill please stay home

Stay healthy and we hope to see many of you July first!
Lots of love,

Dear Gyrini,

Finding an internship can be very stressful. To help you with getting a clearer view of what different internships can entail, we have interviewed some of our members about their internships. These interviews can now be found on this website under Career > Internships > Internship experiences. You can also find them on our app and we hope that you find them useful!

Do you already have internship experience and do you want to share your experience with us? Then please send an email to ln.su1606915411niryg1606915411@ofni1606915411.

Coronavirus update 3

Bestuur

Update Coronavirus

Dear Gyrini,
We would like to give you a new update regarding the Corona virus. First of all, since the government stated that all gatherings are forbidden until the 1st of June, all regular borrels on Wednesday and Friday have been cancelled until then. This also means that the Gyrinus room will be closed until the 1st of June.
Furthermore, all activities organized by committees of Gyrinus that take place before the 1st of June have also been cancelled. Activities that are planned after the 1st of June will still take place, unless stated otherwise. Before the new measures, we told you that we were trying to find new dates for those activities. Due to the new measures, a lot more activities have been cancelled than initially thought. Therefore, it will not be possible to reschedule most of the activities. We are looking at possibilities to let the activities take place in a different way. Naturally, we will keep you updated about this!
In addition, we would like to point out the sites of the Dutch governmental and the RIVM again regarding the Corona virus. Please visit those at: https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/actueel/nieuws/2020/03/23/aangescherpte-maatregelen-om-het-coronavirus-onder-controle-te-krijgen and https://www.rivm.nl/coronavirus/covid-19. The VU also has its own website that stays updated with new information: http://Vu.nl/coronavirus.
Finally, as stated before, the board of Gyrinus natans will be monitoring the updates and measures from the VU and the government and will try to keep you as updated as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to send an email to ln.su1606915411niryg1606915411@ofni1606915411.
Stay safe and keep your distance!

Love,

The 67th board
