Would you like tulips in your garden next Spring?

My nephew Nick, first year student at I Am College in Amsterdam, is selling flower bulbs as part of a study assignment. The bulbs come in boxes of 30 bulbs, with a mix of yellow and purple bulbs.

Do you like to bring color to your garden next Spring and help Nick develop his entrepreneurial skills?

Place an order using the info on the poster.
When ordering please mention code HH26 and indicate how many boxes you would like.

Nick will discuss the details of the order, payment and delivery with you personally. Fyi, he will deliver the box(es) with bulbs at your door.

Thanks in advance and for supporting my nephew Nick!

You can go to the beach in Zandvoort. Here observatory Copernicus based in Overveen, will put two telescopes near Moai at Rapa Nui, Boulevard Barnaart 27, Zandvoort ( border Bloemendaal aan Zee and Zandvoort )
Furthermore you can buy a pair of eclipse glasses at their stand. (While stocks last)

The solar eclips will start at around 7.15 pm and ends at 9.03 pm. Around 8.11 pm 90% of the sun will have disappeared behind the moon.

Tonight there will also be the biggest meteor shower of the year.

From 1 July there will be a new English walking tour: The Best of Haarlem: History, Heroes, Hustle & Hidden Gems. You're invited to join a trial walk on Saturday 27 June.

About the tour
During the tour you'll hear about the history of Haarlem, it's colourful heroes, lively trade and hidden gems. Of course you'll see some of Haarlem's highlights, but also hidden spots with funny stories and fun facts.
We'll walk along the canals, visit a few hofjes and the most characterful neighbourhood, while you hear about the people who built and shaped the city.

During the approximately 2‑hour tour, your senses of taste and smell will also be stimulated along the way. It will be anything but a standard history lesson.

Date: Saturday 27 June
Time: 10:30 – approx. 12:30

Costs
As it's a trial walk, the tour is free of charge. In return, you'll be asked to give your honest feedback and leave a review if you enjoyed the tour.

Sign‑up
The trial tour can't be booked online. Would you like to join? Send an e-mail to [email protected] and you'll receive more detailed information. Group size is limited, so it's first come, first served.

4th of May - Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day is a moment in The Netherlands to honor and remember those who lost their lives during World War II, as well as those who have fallen into subsequent conflicts and peacekeeping missions.

CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS

Two minutes of silence

At 8 pm on May 4th the entire nation observes two minutes of silence.
During ths time, public transportation halts, and people pause whatever they are doing to reflect silently. It’s a moment of unity and respect.

Across the country, ceremonies are held at monuments, war memorials, and cemetries. Officials, veterans, and civilians lay wreaths as a symbol of remembrance and gratitude.

Dutch flags are flown at half-mast as a mark of respect for the fallen.

HAARLEM - May 4th

6 pm A solemn ceremony begins in the St. Bavo Church at Grote Markt with an organ performance by organist Anton Pauw.

7.10 pm Silent march from St. Bavo Church, Grote Markt, to the monument at the Dreef.

OTHER COMMEMORATIVE SERVICES in HAARLEM

At the resistance monument on Jan Gijzenbrug, the war monument ‘The Mourning Woman’ on Westergracht, and the monument in Burgemeester Reinaldapark.

MEMORIAL CONCERT

Right after the Remembrance Day ceremony at the Dreef, the annual Memorial Concert takes place in the Haarlemmerhout.

This free concert brings together music and storytelling in a meaningful way. As tradition goes, the Kennemer Youth Orchestra plays a central role.
