В качестве заключения скажу, что сложно передать словами те ощущения и положительные эмоции, которые царили в тот вечер. Считаю, что все прошло на высоте, и теперь перед нами стоит задача регулярно проводить такие тематические вечеринки, делать их интереснее и ярче с каждым разом. Самой характерной оценкой проведенного события, как по мне, является вопрос ребят на следующий день: "Как вступить в AEGEE? И что для этого нужно?".
