Introduction Period
Every semester, AEGEE-Groningen organises an introduction period with open activities you can participate in. This way, you can get to know us before you actually become a member. The introduction period in September lasts 7 weeks and includes an activity every week and an Intro Dinner, culminating in the introduction camp! There is also an End Dinner and an End Party to celebrate the end of the introductory period. The introduction period in February lasts for three weeks and includes an activity each week and an Intro Dinner! You can attend all activities during this period with no obligation. You can become a member throughout the year, so you can take your time during these weeks to see if AEGEE is the perfect association for you.
Below, you can find more information about the types of activities that are organized during our introduction period. In case there are upcoming introduction activities, you will also find an overview of them here!

Introduction Dinners & Activities
The most beloved part of the introduction period? The fantastic Intro Dinners every Wednesday! This is a great way to get to know AEGEE and its members, and escape the endless meal-planning for a night.
The Introduction Committee will divide you into groups and our Intro Parents will cook a delicious meal for you. Whether you already know a bit about AEGEE member or are still hesitating to join, this is the perfect opportunity to dive into the world of AEGEE and get to know both old and new members. After the dinners, your Intro Parents will take you to the weekly social drink in the Brouwerij, where you can get to know even more AEGEE members.
Some of the intro dinners are a bit more special, such as our Running Dinner, where you go to a different house for each course. At the end we also have one big end dinner at a restaurant, to end the intro period together!
Besides the Intro Dinners, a different intro activity takes place every week. Just like throughout the entire year, there is a wide range of activities during this introduction period, so there is something for everyone. They range from a board game night, to showing your skills during a pool night, to experiencing your first European Night! You can sign up for activities as soon as the new introduction period is planned.
Introduction Camp
The most fun activity of the introduction period in September is without a doubt the Introduction Camp! In the past years this took place in various different locations, from Schiermonnikoog to Tweekhek in Drenthe. But for this year – pack your bags, get ready and join us for a fun weekend on Ameland!
Get cosy at the campfire, play fun games while enjoying drinks, and show your dance skills during the silent disco. And of course, you cannot miss the questionably cooked rice for dinner, that somehow seems to return each year. The introductory camp is the best place to get to know both old and new members, and to familiarise yourself with the ins and outs of the association.
