Jubilee year will be long recalled among the association members. This event was the most testing and demanding happening ever arranged. Hard work was done and many efforts were made - the finnish spirit "sisu" was really needed. But it was really worth of it all - what a great party we had! Acknowledgements and encouraging speeches really warmed us. They gave us motivation and determination to continue our work.
Thanks to Marjo Uimi who eternalized many highlights of the jubilee events. Photos at this site are taken by her. More great photos can be seen at
