Looking back to the Enlight '96, it is possible that total number of participants and guests will be greater than 100-150 person. The Party will last for 2 days (possibly 24 and 25 of August, at weekend). -> ALCOHOLIC DRINKS ARE FORBIDDEN <- ^ Voting ====== The best works will be defined by voting of all persons at the party. All of them will get a vote-sheet. After each compo everybody choose 3 best works and estimate each within 1..5 balls (5 is the best). At the end all vote-sheets will be given to organizers to count amount of balls for each work. Total sum of balls of each work shows the place.
