Valio-Jukola 2012 and the Finnish Defence Forces have signed a partner agreement relating to Valio-Jukola relay race taking place on the 16th and 17th of June 2012 in Hakunila, Vantaa, Finland. The agreement was signed on Friday 7th of October in the Navy headquarters in Turku, Finland. As a result of the agreement, the Defence Forces is the main partner of Valio-Jukola.

Finnish Defence Forces is also a long term supporter of Jukola relay race. Actually, without the support from the Defence Forces it would be impossible to organize the relay race in the capital area. The signed agreement provides the basis for successful arrangement of the largest Finnish adult sport event. The Defence Forces has a lot of material and equipment needed in organizing such an event. It would be difficult to get this equipment from elsewhere.

“We are very happy about the signed agreement”, says the competition leader Mr. Veikko Kostiainen.
