Why a towel?
The concept of the Proggy-Buggy Towel Contest is derived from Douglas Adams's book “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.” According to Adams, the towel is the most helpful item for an interstellar traveler and is useful in any problematic situation. That's why we organize The Towel Contest, celebrated worldwide every year on May 25th - Towel Day - as a tribute to the author Douglas Adams by his fans. It has become a tradition for participants to come to the May competitions with towels.
