During the VSA 2000 our group has conducted a SN-Search program. We have tried with two different strategies of SN searching, and in our final paper we describe them in details, giving some useful references should any similar observing program be established on future VSAs. The most interesting scientific output of our work was the photometric measurements of an already discovered supernova. This data, has allowed us to calculate, within the given uncertainties, the distance to the host galaxy, that was previously known with much smaller accuracy.
