The committee has decided not to arrange a tour but to hold a 2 day
gathering in Cannes on the 4/6 September. Bearing in mind the
distances
involved it was felt that Alpiners and their cars would prefer
to travel at their own pace and possibly extend their time
in France. We also considered the time of year, September
being selected because it would not be so hot and crowded in
Cannes as it would be in July (and cheaper!!!)
It was also thought that this would help the European Alpiners
who wanted to join us to be able to make their own decisions on how to travel.
We suggest that groups of about 6 Alpines could travel together, this being arranged on an ad hock
basis.

I
thought I would outline our intensions for the trip:
1.
The date of the celebrations will be from September the
4th to the 6th. We thought that 1 night of an informal
gathering and 1 night of an official celebration that
would include a drive down the Croisette would be
sufficient. We have chosen these dates as the weather will
be more bearable and also it is after the season of
festivals that
Cannes
has each year and also after the French come back from
holiday.
2.We
will not be organising routes for people to get there,
although if people wish to join in small groups and tackle
the trip together, we could suggest certain routes and may
even be able to have a list of people who are going, so
small group can be formed.
3.Costing
- this will be worked out shortly to give a rough idea
to everyone how much the two days will cost.
4.We
are looking into trying to get preferential rates at camp
sites near to
Cannes
and are in negotiations to get preferential rates at one of
the large Hotels on the Croisette for the reception.
I
will keep you all informed of any developments and look
forward to any comments to suggestions.
