Although the event only lasts 3 days, you might consider showing up earlier.

Ofcourse the "real" show begins on Friday 10th august, but some people are willing to lend the HAL2001-crew a hand building the site. And of course, to claim our tent-land, we need to get in time for the "Land Rush". That's why tfm decided to leave for HAL2001 on monday.

Other reasons to come earlier than Friday.

• To get settled and socialise with people before the actual event.
• You might want to volunteer in building the site and earning a free t-shirt.
• You want to experience raise and fall of an Outdoor Conference.
• To know in advance where the toilets and showers are.
• To have SAFE SEX.
