After having such a pleasant meeting in Stavanger, Norway, I've been invited by Per 'Pelle' to post herein the programme of the official 8er.org European 2011 meeting in Poland.
Participation is highly recommended, last but not least so that we - adding the costs of the Norway meeting to the costs of the Poland meeting - finally for the year 2011 are coming to an enjoyable meeting-cost-average.
EUROPEAN 8er MEETING POLAND SEPTEMBER 02nd-04th, 2011:
The organizators claim the right to vary and/or change some points of the program because of the expected huge number of participants. Registration/reservation only by sending a PM (private message) to me or directly to member ‘kincek’ both herein via this forum. 23 reservations (cars) were taken on by me until today.
The event takes place in the castle of "Mierzecin" (formerly German 'Merenthin') near PL-66-520 Dobiegniew. The village is located ca. 240 km north-east of Berlin and ca. 130 km north-west of Poznan (Posen).
Further information in English and German language as well as beautiful pictures at: http://www.palacmierzecin.pl/
Friends from Scandinavia should look for a ferryboat connection preferably to Swinoujcie/Poland (former German Swinemünde) or to Sassnitz (Germany). Other ports far away may be Gdansk/Poland (Danzig), Gdynia/Poland (Gdingen) or Rostock-Warnemünde/Germany.
