The “March to the center” before Farewell Party is organized for all participants. Please have a look, where “your” groups starts it´s walk!
Hello festival-participant!
This is a short addition to the newsletter of yesterday.
1. Accommodation in the barracks
Each bus driver and each group, which is placed in the barracks will not need their own bedcovers. The bedcovers will be provided by the barracks!
The bus drivers will receive a full catering during their stay here in Lippstadt in the barracks. For lunch on friday they will receive, just like the group members, meal vouchers for self-catering in the inner city. For lunch and dinner on saturday they will receive a lunch-package by the barracks which will be handed out during the breakfast time in the barracks. All bus drivers who will not sleep in the barracks, so will only drive our one-day-guests, have to be catered by their own!
Please advise your bus drivers about these information!
Each group which is placed in the barracks will have a guide for their own, who welcomes his group at the barracks and gives them the necessary instructions.
The catering-times in the "Lipperland-Kaserne Lippstadt":
| monday-friday | saturday-sunday | --------------------------------------------- breakfast | 05:45-06:40 | 07:30-08:30 | --------------------------------------------- lunch | 11:45-12:50 | 11:15-12:00 | --------------------------------------------- dinner | 16:00-17:15 | ----------- | ---------------------------------------------
2. The festival-ticket
At the beginning of the festival each participant will get a festival-button which allows you to use all busses within the city net of Lippstadt. So you will ride comfortably from A to B and you can take even your instrument with you into the bus.
Attention: Naturally you can engage this service. But in return the bus community pleases for a small serenade during your travel, so that the other passengers will have their own benefit of your presence!
4. Notice the timetable!
Please pay attention to the given times for your performances! We instructed our sound engineers to pull down the PA if the bands overrun. So, also in your own interest, please do your performance without planned additions, which would blast the time-frame.
With best regards
Jens Frische

Hello festival-participant!
Now we have less than 2 weeks left to our festival and especially within the team of organisation the squeeze can be felt very clearly. Now more and more the diminutive things are those, which have to be organised. Therefore we need your cooperation!
1. Accommodation of the bus drivers
Sadly, from some groups we still need precise information about the bus drivers with their names, first names, dates of birth, places of birth, the passnumbers and the validity dates of the passports. Without these information no authorisation card for entering the barracks can be certificated. The accommodation of the bus drivers and the parking of the busses would not be possible then!
2. Guides
For finding one's way here in Lippstadt, we organised so-called "guides" for our outlandish groups, who especially care for the group of their allocation. These guides are your personal contact persons for questions and problems of every description. You will receive the adequate contact data at a later date.
Please send us your mobile phone number for this reason to make sure that the connection between you and your guide will work from the beginning.
3. Your performance as a live recording
Naturally you have the possibility to make a live recording at all three main stages. Please bring along your own recorder with the adequate adapter cable! The ports at all three mixers are: 2 x 6,3 mm stereo jack and 2 x cinch.
4. Parking permits
During the festival we will make a car parking place available for our participants, which is situated close to the inner city. For using this parking place you will receive a special parking permit from us, which authorises for parking at the stages too.
5. The festival-ticket
At the beginning of the festival each participant will get a festival-button which allows you to use all busses within the city net of Lippstadt. So you will ride comfortable from A to B and you can take even your instrument with you into the bus.
6. Arrival in Lippstadt
For organising your arrival here in Lippstadt, we need an approximate time of arrival so that the guest parents can make arrangements for you. If your arrival will delay, please contact your personal guide so that he can inform the hosts.
As aforementioned often, the groups will be accommodated close together in the districts of Lippstadt. All groups which arrive on their own will take a central stop in the accordant district, where the disposition of the guest beds will be published too. Furthermore each group will receive a welcome-package there with enough city maps, program books, the meal vouchers for lunch on friday, drink vouchers, the festival-buttons, the tickets for the opening event on thursday evening, a list with all names of your own participants and the accordant telephone numbers of the guest families and a notepad with all important telephone numbers during the festival days.
7. Remember!
Each participant is pleased to bring along a stone, a countrified recipe and a photo which shows the view from out his window.
There will be two "youthHansa Meeting Points" where our participants can have a break, can pay in their drink vouchers or can meet other groups for tieing contacts. At one of these meeting points we will lay out a big sail on which every participant is pleased to subscribe on.
Please think about clothespins for clamping your notes against the wind on the stages.

For organising the guest-beds we need an exact list of the participants from each group. The list should give us information about all names, firstnames and the age of the participants. Also information about potential allergies, the continuous taking of pharmaceuticals and specifics like smoker/non-smoker or vegetarian are important for us.
If you did not made the aforesaid particulars until today, please make up for it by 31.08.2005 the latest, because we won't be able to offer any guest-beds after this date!
The accommodation will take place in guest-families in couples of two. Please show this information clearly within your list of participants!
2. Visa

3. Accommodation of the bus drivers
The accommodation of the bus drivers and their busses, as well as the catering for the drivers will take places at the Lipperland-Kaserne in shared rooms. For getting into the barracks a special authorisation card is needed which the drivers will get handed over by their first entry. For preparing the authorisation cards we necessarily need the driver's names, first names, as well as their dates of birth, places of birth, the complete address and the ID-numbers of their identity cards.

Please notice, that the login on the webpage will only work with the new login-data after June, 20th. You have received these data with the last newsletter.
Festival-Organisation
To arrange the disposition of the guest-beds and to give definite information to the guest-parents as early as possible we need a list of the participants from each group. The list have to include information about the name, first name, gender, birthday, which instrument is played and an information about it, which participant wants to get placed with whom and if there are characteristics like vegetarian, smoker/non-smoker or if the participant have a heavy allergy or something else. Please notice that the placement will happen in groups of two.
Please think about that each participant should organise a countrified “that´s my favourite” recipe, a stone from his country of origin and a photo with the view throughout his window.
Information
The festival will be commented within a paper thesis for the University of Sunderland (BA degree) by the IBS student Olga Schwarzmannseder. The topic of the elaboration is (working-title):
"Event culture of the 21st century illustrated on the example of 1st youth Hansa Music and Art Festival"
Mrs. Schwarzmannseder wants to interview some festival-participants and we want to provide her assistance. The completed elaboration will be presented in the touring exhibition.
If you should have questions about the website, please address them to me (jens.frische@musikschule-lippstadt.de). If you have generally questions about the festival, please address them by mail at the conductor of the Conrad-Hansen Musicschool of the city of Lippstadt, Wolfgang Streblow (wolfgang.sreblow@musikschule-lippstadt.de).
