The Meeting
List of Earthrounders attending the Meeting

Dear Fellow Earthrounders,

We would like to invite you warmly to the next Earthrounders Meeting in Cape Town, South Africa.

Frank was very, very proud of being entrusted with organising this meeting - and in his last months talked and thought about it pretty much on a daily basis.

That we would take on the planning of the meeting following his death in February this year was clear to all of us very early on. He would have expected nothing else!
Meeting all of you in March 2008 will be special - many of you have shown wonderful friendship to us in the past months in particular - and we look forward very much to seeing you.

The programme below features some of the most wonderful things the Western Cape has to offer - we have had years of exploring the region and are happy to share this beautiful part of the world with you.

We have many friends at Frank's favourite Flying Club (Stellenbosch) who are looking forward to exchanging aviation adventure stories with you and who will gladly give advice to those of you who wish to fly in Southern Africa.

Southern Africa is a magnificent place and deserves to be explored thoroughly. If you are interested in experiencing its natural beauty and wildlife in a very special setting, we would recommend the Phinda Game Reserve. We have negotiated a very good deal - although this is dependent on numbers (see attached information). If you arrive earlier or wish to stay on and visit other areas, please do not hesitate to contact Leony (details on registration form), who can offer plenty of information and a wealth of experience in South African individual travel arrangements.

Please join us at the 2008 Earthrounders African Assembly!

With warmest regards,
