If possible, TREY will provide facilities for recreational activities for associations that have been granted association status. The association facilities and their use are coordinated by the student union, and the available facilities are granted by the board of the student union. For the most part, facilities are frequently used. As the facility quota doesn’t grow on its own, associations in line for facilities should be patient.
The association sector will answer any questions about association facilities and the facility services that are provided in cooperation with the university.
The form with which associations can apply for facilities can be found on Microsoft Forms here.
Domus-klubi, Pellervonkatu 8 / Väinämöisenkatu 11
The oldest student housing, Vanha Domus, has a club on the bottom floor, and it’s suitable for meetings and game nights or for accommodating colleagues that visit the city. All associations operating within TREY can rent it. Photos can be found on the material bank here. The club is rented through TREY’s service office on the city centre campus, where the key can also be picked up from.
While picking up the key, the representative of the association has to sign a user form, where they accept the terms and conditions and promise to sign over the club in at least the same condition as it was in before the association rented it. Unnecessary space bookings that are not cancelled might lead to denying further bookings.
The club has showers and the kitchenette includes a coffee maker, a microwave, a fridge, a burner and dishes. In addition, the equipment includes a stereo and ten mattresses, which are kept in a storage room that connects the hallway and the fireplace room (the fireplace is not in use!). The facilities also have desks and chairs, a couple of couches and a fridge and stools. The club is entered through its own door that can be found from the east side of the building near the parking lot. The space is not unobstructed.
The club has last been renovated in 2011 and keeping it clean and pleasant is the responsibility of the associations using the facility. In addition, the club’s cleanliness is maintained by a separately chosen “cleaning tag team” that comprises of associations operating within TREY. Associations are sought for the tag team at the beginning of the year. Ideas for developing the Domus-klubi and making it more pleasant can be expressed to the Office Secretary, the Specialist in Association Affairs or the board’s association organisers.
Rules for Domus-klubi
The facilities must be cleaned after use. Take out the trash, do the dishes, put the furniture back in place, wipe the stains and dispose of other possible trash. If you fail to clean properly after your association has used the facilities, a cleaning service will be ordered from an outside source and your association will be charged for it (at least €100).
The mattresses in the storage room are only meant for sleeping, not sitting on or for other activities. After use, put the mattresses back in a neat pile in the storage room. Don’t fold the mattresses. One mattress costs €45, so if a mattress gets dirty and becomes unusable during the rental period of your association, you will be charged for it.
Don’t leave anything extra at the club.
