IAESTE Wellness Weekend 2005
November 12-13, 2005

IAESTE LC Zurich offers you the Wellness Weekend 2005

So what does 'wellness' mean? Normally it means that you have a relaxed time, going to a thermal bath, visiting a sauna or a massage. But NOT this time!

This time wellness means that we have a weekend full of sports- and fun-activities. We will have the possibility to go ice-skating, swimming, climbing, tobogganing and visiting a thermal bath. Check out the details below for more information.

Looking forward to spending a great weekend with you!

Bina and Jörg

Program

Please be aware that the program may change because of the weather. If it is raining on Sunday we will probably not go to Seilpark because we would get wet and dirty. Tobogganing is also not possible if the track is wet. We will have a look at the weather forecast and decide about the program on Friday, November 11. There will be an alternative program for bad weather but we haven't decided what it will be.

Important - What to bring

• warm clothes
• good gloves, winter hat, sunscreen, sunglasses
• winter boots
• thick socks (recommended if you plan to rent skates)
• your own skates (it will save you 6 CHF of the rental)
• swimming suit, towel, slippers
• all the necessary to be clean and sexy for partying
• your best smile!
• lunch for Saturday
• sleeping bag (you can get a blanket at the house but it costs 8.50 CHF extra)

We are not sure if there will be snow already in November but we will inform you about it before the event.
