Savo-Karjala excursion is one of the most well known and popular vappu-traditions in ISYY, organized on April 29th as per tradition. And this year will be no different! However, Savo-Karjala excursion 2020 will take place in your very own home on 29th April at 16-20, not forgetting the classic vappu-excursion atmosphere!
During the excursion you will partake in a virtual tour through our secret route around Savo-Karjala and the rest of Finland as well. For the first time, pit stops in other destinations around the land of thousand lakes can also be expected!
Our “buses” will be online chatrooms, where you can reserve your seat as you sign up. On the bus you are free to hang out with fellow excursionees as per usual and enjoy the scenic routes! There will be multiple stops en route, allowing for pit stops, leg stretching and refilling of your drinks.
Therefore, to ensure true excursion atmosphere, we recommend you to designate a special “bus-zone” in wherever you’re taking part in this event. You shouldn’t get up from your zone while the bus is moving. Following this principle you can also designate yourself an area that acts as the bar for the many pub stops along the way. So get cozy on your couch, grab some snacks and drinks and have your bar be your refrigerator. And best of all, no worries about long toilet queues!
This year we have 16 buses, 8 from Joensuu and 8 from Kuopio. Bus leaders will be published later.
The total traveling time is about 4 hours, and the exact timetable shall unravel during the trip. After the excursion you’re welcome to join the online-after-party in Discord! The after party is open for anyone, and the link will be available here later.
So whatchu waiting for, get in! Sign up for this epic online excursion opens on April 15th at 12 o'clock and closes April 23rd, and there are 20 places per each bus. Sign up through kide.app, link below!
Note that signing up for this excursion is completely free! If you want the latest Savo-Karjala excursion overall patch as a memorandum of this epic road-trip, the price will be 3€. The overall patch is a limited edition, so be quick if you desire one!
Before the actual event day we will inform all participants on how to prepare for the experience. Buckle up and floor it!
