6. [IMPORTANT] Transfer of the membership register and payment of the membership fee
The membership fee of Prosessiteekkarit ry can no longer be paid at the same time with the enrolment for the academic year and the AYY membership fee. As a result, the membership register of Prosessiteekkarit ry was transferred to the Kide.app service the 2nd of August, 2023. The membership fee of Prosessiteekkarit ry can be paid via Kide.app. The membership fee for 2023 is 8 euros. The membership is valid for one year from the date of membership approval, which will be done at the next board meeting after joining.
To become a full member of Prosessiteekkarit ry, a person must also be a member of the Aalto University Student Union (AYY), and to ensure this, the Kide.app service will ask for a Haka login to verify student status. Please note that student status can only be verified for one Kide.app account, so please make sure you use the correct account of your choice before logging in. If you are not a member of AYY, you can become an external member of Prosessiteekkarit ry. External membership does not require a valid student status.
To become a member of the association, click here. Please, choose carefully the right type of membership.
As a reminder, the membership is valid until the end of the autumn semester 2023 for those who have paid their membership fee between 1.1.–31.5.2023. The membership is valid until the end of the spring semester 2024 for those who have paid their membership fee between 1.6.–31.7.2023. In both cases, the data will be transferred from the old membership register to the new one without any action being required from those concerned.

22. The sing-through of the Red Songbook 17.11.
What is the best way to spend the Friday evening of Teekkari Tradition Week? By singing, of course, which is why you should head to the Red Songbook sing-through arranged by LuTku at Rantasauna!
The concept of the event is extremely straightforward: we take the Red Songbook in our hands and sing every song in it. The physical well-being of the singers has not been forgotten either, which is why Rantsu’s sauna and hot tub will be kept warm throughout the evening and LuTku catering will take care that the singers have no need to be empty-mouthed 🥰
So recall the old classics and approximate the melody of new acquaintances rather than well. Only two things are guaranteed: the singing will go on all night long and the atmosphere will be through the roof. The doors of Rantsu open at 16.30 and the singing will start at 17 and continue as long as there are songs to sing. You can come and join at any time during the evening🤩
If you are still missing your own Red Songbook, no worries! It’s possible to buy your own piece of the newest version of Red Songbook, published in 2022.
TL;DR:
What: The Sing-through of the Red Songbook
Where: Rantasauna
When: 17.11. starting at 16.30
What does it cost: Nothing at all!
If you have any questions, please contact @lukkaritirehtoori
