Övik Bug Fans Posted February 23 Posted February 23 Information in english for our international visitors: Bug Convention #36 NOTE! This information will be updated continuously. On Friday, June 27th, Bug Convention #36 will start with a gathering just north of Örnsköldsvik (exact location will be announced closer to spring) at 15.00 to move 35 kilometers inland in a long caravan to Björna Camping! We have the entire campsite at our disposal and those of you who come with an air-cooled Volkswagen and camp in the area will do so for FREE. There is a service house, several toilets and showers, electricity and water. All of this will be free for you! Once you arrive at the campsite and while you are setting up the rock n’ roll sofa in your bus, rolling out a sleeping mat or just enjoying a cold beer with a friend, Övik Bug Fans will prepare a great dinner for those of you who have come with us in the caravan to the meeting! Which we of course invite you to for free! After dinner on Friday night we will recharge with something good to drink and then play Kahoot! The program for Saturday for the official Bug Convention #36 will come in the spring. But those of you who usually visit us know more or less what to expect. There will be competitions, top 5, people's choice, lotteries, etc. This year we will do a little twist on FINNKAMPEN. 🙂 The set-up is of course, secret.. It will be Sweden against Finland in a thrilling battle for the best prize this weekend. Will the Swedish team take home this competition again this year? Towards the end of the meeting, there will be an award ceremony for competitions and lotteries, after that something is needed in the stomach! Together with Hotell Björnforsen, we have arranged a well-stocked barbecue buffet that you will not be able to go hungry from, for a bargain price of 229 SEK! We will have the restaurant to ourselves between 18-19.00, after that it is open to the public to visit the restaurant. After 19.00 we will have the award ceremony for the top 5 cars and people's choice at Hotel Björnforsen, so make sure to arrive on time! The evening just continues... after the award ceremony we invite you to another awesome troubadour evening with our favorites Daniel and Marcus! If the weather is good, you can sit on Björnforsen's large patio with a view of the beautiful Gideälv and Björna camping. From Björna camping to Hotel Björnforsen it is a 600 meter walk. On the camping area you are allowed to bring your own drinks, but at Hotel Björnforsen you are not allowed to bring your own drinks. However, we have received a good price on drinks, so we think that the bar will be empty when we go back down to the camping site towards nightfall. A combined sauna/hottube trailer will be available at the camping area and will be hot both Friday and Saturday. On Friday it will be hot from around 17.00 and Saturday around 16.00. There will be a breakfast buffet available for purchase at Hotell Björnforsen for 79 SEK both Saturday and Sunday mornings from 09.00, for those of you who just want to come and enjoy the whole weekend without cooking any food. Stay at Hotell Björnforsen! All bookings are made directly through Hotell Björnforsen. To book a room, call +46 662-10350 or email info@bjornforsen.se For more information, visit www.bjornforsen.se When booking, state that you are visiting the “Bug Convention” and you will receive discounted accommodation as below. Price per night single room including breakfast: 650 SEK Price per night double room including breakfast: 900 SEK Accommodation at the hotel is first come, first served! As usual, we have no entrance fee to participate in the meeting. Now we are looking forward to a really nice weekend together with like-minded people 🙂 See you!
