Ummaii Surfhostel As you already know, the ForróCamp will take place at the Ummaii Surfhostel on the island Ummanz, which is a really wonderful small paradise in Germany. You can reach them for any questions or assistance you might need via: 038305 55018 hostel@ummaii.de Haide 19, 18569 Haide/Ummanz Probably most of you will arrive by train to the train station "Bergen auf Rügen". From there it is a 20 minutes ride by car to reach the camp. Unfortunately there will be no bus until the camp as you will arrive on Sunday but you can take the bus 38 and go till "Gingst" from there take a taxi and you will be at the camp in 5 minutes. Timetabel of the bus 38 There is also a list to share a taxi with other participants from Bergen auf Rügen. Follow the link and fill in the form so that you can easily get in touch with others and share a taxi: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1K-qEZc4CR4iMaxQp9a_kgfOqwjNUL2AerDawEgz0hUs/edit?usp=drivesdk |

Organize your journey with other participants It is also really good to speak to other participants and see if you reach the train station at the same time as them.... This helps to have already a nice arrival together but also to share taxi costs. In addiction to the google-list (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1K-qEZc4CR4iMaxQp9a_kgfOqwjNUL2AerDawEgz0hUs/edit?usp=drivesdk) you can also join our groups on facebook or whatsapp to get in touch with the participants before travelling. The links: ForróCamp Group https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ls9ApaXNToWGLEwiXyU6bR Corona: Yes, this still is a topic in 2022. The pandemic is not over and we all know, we need to be very careful to stay healthy. Even more, meeting and dancing with around 100 people. I ask you kindly to prevent crowds and reduce contacts before coming to the camp and you may do a covid test, so it would feel more comfortable and easygoing being together with everybody. If you have no certificate of immunization, please get a covid-19 test 24h before - it will be required when you check-in at the hostel.The actual law of the state allows us to dance and stay together. Some general information: - Please bring bed linen and towels
- There is no washing machine
- Please bring costumes for our motto parties (details are following)
- Repellent also is a good idea to bring with you - there are lots of mosquitoes!!
- The guests staying in the hostel will have breakfast and dinner included
- If you have any special wishes or needs regarding your food, please let us know until July 28th. You can choose between vegetarian and meet, but also if you have any allergies we can ask the cook, if it is possible to prevent some types of food for you.
- If you stay outside the camp, you need to organize your meals by yourself. The Surfhostel can only cater guests with accommodation at the Camp. If you stay outside the hostel. you can book for dinner a table at the Tiki Bar and on Wednesday you can book the Barbecue Buffet for only 20€ (booking until Monday, please)
- Unfortunately this year there is no opportunity of getting lunch at the hostels restaurant. The Tiki Bar only will open from 17:00 o‘clock. So make sure to bring some food with you to survive during the day between 11:00 and 18:00 o'clock. For any case, we will have a little snack bar with some fruits and cookies.
- The next super market or bank (cash machine) is around 10 km from the camp and you need to go by car
- We are a mixed group of all types of people, with different interests, different culture and different experience. Please try to be as kind and gentle as you can. Like this we all will have a wonderful week at the Camp!
- Also I really want to ask you to dance with everybody. If you see someone who doesn´t dance a lot, ask her or him for a dance, if he/she doesn´t know yet let him practice with you, imagine you would be the other person. How would you feel well?
- If you have any questions, ideas, critic or anything else you want to share with me PLEASE come and speak to me :) I will be very happy!!
