WSOM'97:
Social Program



Banquet

The Banquet will take place on Thursday, June 5 at 18:00. The program will begin with a bus and ferry trip to the Fortress Island of Suomenlinna. Suomenlinna is a 200 year old fortress located on islands to the southeast of Helsinki. The evening includes dinner and entertainment. Casual clothing according to the weather is recommended, as well as comfortable shoes, in case you are interested in exploring the nearby fortifications. The evening ends with a ferry trip from Suomenlinna to Market Square (Kauppatori) in the Helsinki city center at 22:30.

The banquet is included in the regular workshop registration fee, but not the student fee nor the tutorial fee. A limited amount of extra banquet tickets may be purchased at a price of 250 FIM each (advance reservation is highly recommended).

Ice-Breaking Party

The Ice-Breaking party is an excellent opportunity to acclimatise to the workshop atmosphere and get to know the other workshop participants. Also the SOM Clinic is open during the party.

The Ice-Breaking Party is held in the lobby of the conference site (see the map of Otaniemi) on Wednesday, June 4 at 17:30-19:00. Participation in the party is included in all the workshop registration fees.
