On July 4, 2012 we will have an excursion to the history of Bayburt and its surrounding area. Depending on time allowance, we may have a city sightseeing tour as well.

We work very hard to finalize the details of the excursion and the social night following the excursion. Once the details are planned, they will be posted on this page. Please keep yourself updated about the details.

The excursion and the social night will be a lifetime event. Do not miss it!
