Every year our sister association, W.S.G. Abacus, creates a puzzle booklet for their members. This year they want to expand to all of WISO and they have asked us if members are interested.
We, the board, see many of you enthousiastic members making the Sudoku or the Crossword puzzle each day. So, we know some of you are very excited for this. They do have one request, that we also send them a couple of puzzles for this booklet.
If you are interested in receiving a WISO puzzle booklet please subcribe to the sign up list below. If you are interested in making a puzzle please send a mail to board@gewis.nl and we will send you the puzzle booklet (as pdf) from last year. The puzzles have to be send to the board on the 5th of May at the latest.
xoxoxo,
Your lovely board!
Please note: If you are interested in making a puzzle, be creative, Abacus would like to not only receive crosswords and sudokus
Continue readingWe all know what fire is. We have felt it up close and seen it in various sizes, from small to large. It can be nice and cozy when it's in a campfire, and we sit around it, but it can also be destructive, destroying everything in its path. Around 2 million years ago, humans started to use fire to our advantage. Over all these years, we have mastered the use of fire and controlled it to our benefit, leading us to where we are now. Even with the technology we have today, we still cannot control fire everywhere.
Almost everyone has seen fire breathers at festivals or in a circus, and it looks absolutely spectacular. Have you ever thought, 'I can do that?' Or maybe, 'I would like to learn that as well so I look super cool for my family and friends?' This is a unique chance to try it in a controlled environment. If you join us in this activity, it's your time to shine and breathe fire.
We have arranged for a professional trainer who is specialized in fire breathing. He will join us and explain everything you want to know about fire breathing. First, he will give an introductory course on all there is to know about fire breathing. After this, we will do some exercises to learn how to properly breathe fire. And finally, we will, of course, go outside and put into practice what we have learned. The entire instruction, including the fire breathing itself, will take between 3 to 4 hours. If you subscribe, you need to be present for the entire activity.
There are 30 spots excluding burgers! In case there are more subscriptions it is first come first serve.
Hugs,
B.O.O.M.

Are you also looking forward to better and sunnier weather in coming spring? What better way to start off spring by running the most fun relay race of them all, the Batavierenrace! In the weekend of the 24th till the 26th of May, we from GEWIS will once again travel to Nijmegen to run together a distance of 175km to Enschede, divided into 25 parts, running during the night, in the morning and in the afternoon.
Like last year, we are running with two teams, so make sure to subscribe soon to not only run with us but enjoy the biggest student party in Europe on Saturday! If there are not enough subscriptions we will join with one team. In case of too many subscriptions, there will be a draw. We will sleep in our own tents on the campus of Twente University and every time a new team will go to their starting point to take over the responsibility of the prior team to run GEWIS to the finish. Hopefully, you're looking forward to this relay race just as much as we do (or even more of course)!
With sportive regards, GESPORT.

Continue readingAre you excited to spend your weekend in lovely nature and not afraid to engage in some adventurous activities, or just looking for a place to enjoy a cozy campfire all night long, or are you in for both? Then get ready for the B.O.O.M. Active Weekend of 2024!
This year, we will visit the Nonceveux in the Belgian Ardennes. Here we have arranged some great activities for you, both on the Saturday and Sunday. We won’t spoil them yet, but examples from previous years are climbing, traversing a trail between treetops and canoeing. Next to this, there is more to enjoy during the weekend, you can “stream” in the river at the campsite (ask B.O.O.M. members for details) and in the evening there will be a campfire to keep you warm. Since we are on a campsite, we will sleep in cozy tents.
You don’t have to bring/buy your own food or drinks as this is all inclusive during the weekend! On Friday you have the opportunity to taste Sako’s famous pasta salad, and on Saterday you can enjoy a nice BBQ. Next to that, we will arrange a sufficient supply of beers and soda (and coffee for the tough mornings, don’t worry).
The weekend will take place from 7th till 9th of June 2024. If you want to join please subscribe below. As we need enough cars to drive everyone to Belgium, people with a car available wil be given priority if necessary. If you have a car available, please indicate this and mention how many places (including yourself) you have in the car. We would also like to know if you have a tent and how many people could fit in it. We will not make tent groups but this might give other people some help in asking around to find a place to sleep :)
We are planning on taking 50 persons to our awesome weekend, so subscribe as soon as possible! When there is a lot of interest, we may be able to scale up, but we cannot promise anything yet!
Met takken!

As the name explains, you can bring your parents to enjoy a nice cold Grolsch (or a cold soda!) together with your fellow studymates. So invite your parents and come have a beer with them!
