SOOPA in English
SOOPA is the student scout troop of in Oulu. We’re interested in different kinds of outdoor, scouting and sports activities.
We’ve had many foreign students to join our trips, for example exchange students from Italy, Germany, Portugal, Switzerland, Czech Republic, France, Japan… and they’ve all survived! So if you’re interested, don’t hesitate to contact us and ask more. We try to keep some short basic information about upcoming events here on the website (often we fail to do so in English).
There is also a mailing list of SOOPA http://lists.oulu.fi/mailman/listinfo/soopa (most messages include english summary) and a Facebook group for more general discussion. For any questions, try asking in the Facebook group or drop a line to any person mentioned in an event description. You can also ask through the mailing list!
Joining SOOPA
In order to take part in our events, you should pay a membership fee to our bank account. In 2024: 5€/year for those who are or have been students in Oulu, and 10€ for everyone else.
IBAN: FI72 574136 20057718 SWIFT/BIC: OKOYFIHH Reference number: 11510
You can also ask a friend to pay for you (sometimes international transfers can be costly), but in that case do not use the reference number, use a message instead and write ”Membership fee for First_name Last_name” in the message, so we know from whom the payment is actually coming from.
After doing that, please fill in the membership form below or send the same information by email to ”rahastonhoitaja” or ”jäsenrekisterinhoitaja”, see contact information. SOOPA privacy policies. Please note that we don’t offer any insurance!
