___________=====================================================__________
o Visit to the Fraunhofer Institute and Itzehoe Weinfest - in association with the Cirencester Twinning Association
So far I have received 8 positive expressions of interest for this visit, but the Institute has not given a top limit so now is the time to let me know if you can join us - the organisers have asked us for numbers by the middle of December.
The outline plan of the trip is:
- Fly to Hamburg Friday 26th May
- Transport to Itzehoe organised by our twinning host friends
- Accommodation with twinning hosts available
- Visits and celebrations for Weinfest organised by our hosts 27th, 28th May
- Visit to Fraunhofer Institute 29th May, guided tour in English
- Return Hamburg to UK Tuesday 30th May
As I mentioned, the Institute especially welcomes students and potential employees, and is keen to show off its facilities, so if you know someone in that age group with an interest in technology please let them know about it. It's also an opportunity to become an expert in German wines!
The cost is generally just the cost of the flight, plus anything you spend on wine and presents. If you book early, this is an encredibly cost-effective way to visit, see the Institute, enjoy the party and make friends! And the Cirencester Twinning Association welcomes new members :-) !
Please e-mail me as soon as possible if you are interested, or talk to me next Wednesday.
