TEAM-MATES NEEDED Cannalympics 2013 420 day 7pm.
Posted: Thu 7th Feb 2013 03:29 pm
Like many other coming to the Dam for 420 day I was disappointed that the Haarlem Cannalympics are not taking place in 2013.
Then I found this..... in Amsterdam no less...
Why I am looking forward to the AMS 4:20 Protest and Festival. – #AMS420

We, Peter Lunk and myself, are in the middle of all preparations to make the 4:20 Festival happen, and that is a job, I can tell you that. Most of the work is being done by Peter Lunk, who’s medical and physical condition motivate him to put his available energy in cannabis legalization. He has arranged the venue, the music and some very attractive side events for the Festival, besides all arrangements for the 4:20 Protest Smoke Out.
My input in this event will be a speech at the protest, and the infotainment during the Festival, in other words, I will be some kind of Game Host to keep you informed and entertained during the four interactive hours of the Festival, with events taking off at 19.00 hrs. local time. (doors open at 18.00h)
Until a few years ago, I used to organize annual Harvest Parties in our first, huge coffeeshop, Willie Wortel. These parties were attended by around 200 persons, the place was packed every time.
I used to ‘invent’ a few nice competitions to keep the visitors busy during the whole event, and every year I managed to come up with a new game or skill-event.
With 15 years of Harvest Party experience, it will be my pleasure to entertain you with some fun and events on stage and in the rest of the venue, I am sure you will not be disappointed.
Last week, I came up with the idea to hold a real cannabis skills and knowledge competition during the 4:20 festival, for teams representing the country they live in. As I mentioned in an earlier article, I will not unveil the events for this International Cannabis Competition, it will be a surprise for all teams and the audience. The only thing we advice the team Captains is to select Cannathletes that know cannabis, and who can hold their smoke!
There will be 4 indivudual events, every Cannathlete can take part in one of these 4 events, the Captains select the person for each event. The fifth event will be a team event, including the team Captain.
To make sure every Cannathlete is ‘doped’, they will all have to take a bong hit before every event!
This will carefully be supervised by our very own Dope-up Commitee, people that refuse the bong hit(s) will be taken out of the competition, and can not take part in the fifth and final event! We kindly ask the Cannathletes to refrain from drinking alcohol until after the competitions, it will be tough! We expect all participants in this competition to respect the decision of the Judges.
Our Judges and Timekeepers will observe and valuate the efforts of the Cannathletes closely.
Please, do not send me suggestions for events, we can do this!
So far, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Luxembourg and the UK will be represented on the 4:20 Festival to compete in the first ever International Cannabis Competition for teams. We will allow 3 more teams to register, we want to start this pilot event with 8 teams, next year we will have no restrictions on the number of teams, we might just have to make if a full weekend event!
May the best team win!

Note!: The whole event will be recorded on video, to be used for internet exposure, and a documentary about this event, from protest to after party!!

What I would like is 4 more people who want to represent ACD in the Cannalympics. I volunteer to be the captain as it means I will only have to do the team event
If you are interested in playing please reply to this thread.
