Somewhere at Stratum

SAVE THE DATE Move! Get out of the hay! KlemKu is coming through with an amooosing party for all Van der Waals members to celebrate their first lustrum! The celebration will be held on Tuesday, April 25th, 2023, somewhere on Stratum. Expect a lot of moo-sic, drinks, and udder chaos until pasture bedtime. Resisting the good moood will be udderly pointless. So mooove to the dancefloor and show your hooves. Spread the word and bring your whole herd. Don’t let this promotion go into one ear and out the udder, because it will be legend… wait for it… dairy. Save the date! Tickets will be sold at a later point by KlemKu-members, so keep your eyes and ears open for other promotional messages.

Nijmegen to Enschede

Do you want to participate in the world largest relay run of the world? Then join the running team of Van der Waals in the Batavierenrace 2023! The batavierenrace is a relay race from Nijmegen to Enschede where you run 175 km’s as a team of 25 people.

The race will start Friday evening in Nijmegen and end Saturday afternoon in Enschede. After the race has finished, there will be a big party at the campus of the university of Twente. On Sunday we will travel back to Eindhoven via public transport.

The costs for this activity will be €15. We have 25 spots for runners, however, if the subscriptions are full and your drawn out, 5 people will have the possibility to join as a ’back-up runner’. The participation fee for a back-up runner is €10. You will be able to join the group to Enschede for the parties and will receive a t-shirt. If a running spot opens up, one of the back-ups can take this.

During the weekend we will be sleeping in tents. If you are not able to sleep in a tent, you can indicate this to the committee and request a place to sleep in the sports hall for an additional fee. Furthermore, in the options below, you can indicate your preference for which stage to run. The committee will try to take this into account, but cannot give any guarantee.

The no-show policy and the subscription policy apply to this activity. There are only a few spots left which will be filled on a first-come first-serve basis.
