Jubal and Jong Jubal not coming to Power Regional
17 May 2008

Jubal and Jong Jubal will not enter the DCE Power Regional in London, England on June 21st. No accommodation has been found to house the corps during the weekend. The corps states that there are still too many uncertainties, making the risk to take a group of 190 people across the Channel too high.

Numerous schools and gyms were evaluated, but there were objections in every single situation. Many school don't allow anyone to stay overnight, the same applies to most gyms and halls. In some accommodations there was no kitchen facility, in others no showers. The main problem seemed to be the fact that we were bringing approximately 190 people in total.

"It is definitely not that we don't want to", Jubal says. "In the past has Jubal has regularly travelled abroad. We felt it important to also pay a return visit to England after having welcomed the British corps in the Netherlands at the DCE Championships for the last few years." But because no accommodation has been confirmed, Jubal decided to cancel their trip.
