English Sneak Preview

Hi folks!

A little mouse told me a few days ago there will be a Sneak-Preview at Cineplex FN in English! After we had such a great time watching "James Bond" we should meet again ;)

A Sneak-Preview is a special event, taking place every Monday at Cineplex Friedrichshafen. You'll pay a special price (5€) and have no clue which film will be shown. No risk no fun!

So on December 1st, the sneak will be in English and I think the film will be a pretty good one - but no promises ;)

If you're interested, please contact me on graumario@ph-weingarten.de. Like last time we need drivers, so please tell me if you could drive or need someone to give you a lift.

Hope to see you soon!

Cheers,

Mario - StuFa English

Bake Sale Success!

Over 270 Euros was raised at the bake sale! We're working on an appointment to hand the money over to the Ravensburger Tafel. It's very likely that we'll have the press there, too! We'll let you know when that's happening and hope you can join us!

THANKSGIVING is coming!

Celebrate Thanksgiving with the Lunchbox team on Thursday, November 27th at 18:00 in S 329. Bring something yummy to share at this fall feast!

James Bond - Quantum of Solace

• WHEN? Thursday, November 13th, 2008 - movie starts at 20.15 we meet at 19.00 at the NZ
• WHO? Everyone who's interested
• WHERE? Cineplex Friedrichshafen (we meet at the NZ and drive there together)
• HOW? Carpooling (hopefully there will be enough drivers!)
• COST? Update: The distributer of the film vetoed group prices! We made a deal with the manager of Cineplex to give us a discount of 2 Euros so the price will be 5 €. Still a good bargain!
  

If you are interested, please sign up on the "list of agents" at the bottom of the stairwell going up to S 328 or send an e-Mail (graumario@ph-weingarten.de).

Please let us know if you can drive (we need drivers!) and how many people you take with you.

You can check out the group "DIE PH CINEASTEN" at StudiVZ, too.
