Food at STORK

For participting band members dinner and night snack will be served at Norrlands nation. Breakfast will be served at the schools. STORK will provide 'normal' and vegitarian food, but not any other kind of special food. The reason for this is that previous experiences have shown that it doesn't work (people get no, or wrong type of food). Hence, STORK offers a discount (see above) for those who's needs cannot be met. At Norrlands both refrigarator and microwave ovens will be available for thoose who's needs cannot be met, so they may bring their own food and still eat with the rest of the bands. A special ticket will be handed out for this.

Without the deposition system STORK cannot rent some of the schools used for accomodation. After STORK 2006 all deposition fees were returned to the bands, we hope this will be the case also for the comming festival.


10-year olds

If you have any "10-year olds" we would like to be informed of this in your application so we can send the info to Riks-SMASK. A 10-year old is somebody who has done ten STORK / SOF / SORK in a row. These are honored with a banquet and a medal ceremony. Please note that these events are organized by Riks-SMASK, and all queries in this matter should be directed to thr RS reresentative.
