The opening ceremonies, as well as prize-giving, were held in the evening of June 30th, in the self-advertised "one of the largest amusement parks in Scandinavia" Liseberg, right in the middle of Göteborg. The runners' (and team leaders'!) ID cards served as free entry passes to Liseberg and to all of its rides, and the juniors were given about two hours to run free in the park before the ceremonies began. The crowd of young orienteers took full advantage of this opportunity, and were seen on all the roller-coasters and other gut-wrenching rides throughout the evening.
After the ceremonies, a bit of time in the amusement park remained. The team expressed its desire to obtain a giant chocolate bar that was available as a prize in a game requiring great skill and acumen to succeed in (roulette). This was where the coaches had to step in and show the juniors how it is done. Here is coach Kat with the spoils of the evening:
