HU France 9-11 September 2016
 

Following a recent discussion with Camping les Hirondelles, I am pleased to say they have invited us back for the weekend of 9-11th September.

No details yet, but put a note in your diary/calendar to come to this meeting. Already discussing some great ideas for this now popular event.

I would be delighted to hear from French speaking/bilingual volunteers to help with admin re the meeting, and especially volunteers who can do stand up concurrent translations ( French /English) for the presentations at the meeting.

Those who have already put their hand up to help after this years event are on my list to contact in the New Year.

In the meantime bier

Hi Jean-Luc,

Great to see your post, and I will put you on my list of people to contact in the New Year. I'm hoping we have some presentations next year from travellers who have been to those areas who may be able to help you with good knowledge. In the meantime there is plenty of information on the HUBB from people who are very experienced on Russia and the far east.

Meeting
 

Hello Mr P might actually get round to making it this time if there is room

:thumbup1: Keep an eye on the thread Martin, and as soon as registration is open, book your pitch!

That timing may be good for us, we fly out of UK beginning of Oct. So we will try and make this.

available to help
 

I'll be available to help in september and I live in that area as well. French is not my mothertongue (=Dutch), so translations will no be so good, but assisting is always possible.

Hoping having a nice event

Hi everyone,

The announcement and registration for this years meeting will be appearing soon, so we're looking forward to receiving your bookings. This year I'm being helped with the administration and setting up the meeting by my French friend and HU colleague Roger ( OTRA).

We're now on the hunt for travellers who would like to tell us about their trips/ideas etc, so we would like to hear from anyone who would like to make a presentation;do a workshop;show a video etc.

Following suggestions after last years packed meeting, we will have concurrent bi lingual translators to assist where necessary with all the presentations etc, so your participation in French or English is not a problem for the mixed audience.

We look forward to hearing from those wishing to participate and to all who want to come and enjoy this meeting. ( The campsite and the food's great!).
