BMI Alumni Summer Adventure 2014

This year the BMI Alumni „Summer adventure“ was attended by more than 60 Alumni and their family members. 14 teams convened in the Ignalina region, where they competed in solving 18 riddles and tasks such as counting turkeys at the Bird village or the steps of a 70m high tower, explaining the origin of the Ignalina city name or even looking for a non-existent bridge. The winners were the team which collected the most points during the control time and was the most friendly or helpful. After the race and the awards ceremony the participants had a relaxing time at the country-house „Ievalaukis“.

 

Winners of the competition:

1st place: Antanas Bubnelis (EMBA X), Sonata Bubnelienė (EMBA X), Artūras Abromavičius (EMBA IV) together with his wife Dalia Abromavičienė – congratulations and best luck organizing the Summer adventure next year!

All participants have called the event a great success and had a really good time all together.

Some of the feelings after the event:

 

°"The event was fantastic, I'll definitely come next summer in order to meet with active and curious people. Our feminine 13th team, which represented the 13th BMI class, was especially fun due to the positive adrenalin. Everyone we met sincerely helped us even if we didn't ask for help. Probably because it is not so usual to see a group of girls running around with smartphones and the number 13:).

Thank you for the great time!"Laura Ambrutienė, XIII

 

°„It was a superb weekend! We were definitely worth of a prize place! :)” Valerija Buzėnienė, XIII

 

It is great to create nice traditions and we hope to meet you all at the same event next year!
