Campingsport Amsterdam

For those planning to attend HIP97, there is already a
cypherpunk party coming from the West coast.  Some details
can be seen on the hip website http://www.hip97.nl

People making other arrangements may be interested in this
tidbit from the NL tourist board.

we're going there too, and one of the things we wondered was whether it
might have been possible to hire a tent *locally*. I can get tents all
right, but the biggest problem is transportation. I surely hope that in
case you're going to rent one of their tents, delivery and pick-up is
included. Have you seen a transport-ready armytent already ? ;-) Amsterdam
is only 30' from Almere, by car. You do have a pick-up car don't you ? The
tent won't fit into my regular subaru ;-)

Our biggest cost is for transporting the tent from Belgium to Holland.
Interested in a compartiment ?

Amsterdam isn't all that far from the camp site and you can always make a
run there. I rented one of the 10x5 meter army tents used for the San
Francisco Bay Area delegation from

Purmerend
Beemsterbugwal 12  (++ 31 299 420999)

The tent is 250FL, deposit is 750FL for a total of 1000FL.

See you all in Amsterdam,
