Sports services of Vaasa’s universities, student organizations, FSHS and Wasa Sports Club invite you to join this autumn’s scariest, but also most relaxed running event on the official Halloween day, October 31! 👻🎃 Despite the name, you don’t have to run in the event, but you can also walk, lightly jog or travel between the campuses in any way that suits you. 🚶👩‍🦼🤸‍♂️

 

The event starts at 16.30. in the parking lot of Wasa Sports Club, where you can photograph your outfit at the photo booth and make sure you’re taking part in the costume contest. 🎭📸 The main prize for the best costume of the day chosen by the jury is Samsung 65” 4K OLED television sponsored by Gigantti, but several other dress up efforts will also be rewarded. 👹🏆

 

At 17.00, the warm-up starts and the starting shot starts the run through the campuses, collecting stamps for the stamp pass. The event culminates in a finish line party accompanied by a DJ and an award ceremony at Vaasa’s market square. 🎉🏁🥳

 

All those who return the filled stamp pass to the goal area at the market square by 19.00. will receive an overall patch and will also participate in the raffle held during the finish line party, where great prizes will also be given away. 🎁🌟

 

The Halloween-themed celebration continues until the dark hours of the night in the afterparties held by the student organizations, so follow their own advertising so you know what’s happening where! 🕺🦇🪩

The main sponsor of the event is Gigantti Vaasa.

It appears to be a bug in the system so that everyone has to pay even though it is supposed that members of ÅAU Sports and VY Liikunta will get the course for free. Too short a time now to make amends, but you will get your money back, so feel free to tell others that it is ok to come along. You who are members of ÅAU Sports or Vaasa University Sports Service will get that €10 back. Sign up HERE

From the 13th of October we will introduce a climbing opportunity in the schedule on Fridays at 3-5pm. Please join us for the introduction this Friday, the 6th of October at 4-5pm, then you can climb more on your own in the future.

On the climbing course for beginners, you get started with climbing under the safe guidance of an instructor, where you learn the basics as well as safe bouldering and climbing with automatic safety systems. Suitable for first-time climbers. Includes climbing shoes and equipment.
