  • Mini journey: Weekend trip to London or skiing trip

4) Other things?

Unfortunately, quite a few people had registered for the general assembly and champagne tasting and didn't show up without even giving a notice. It's an annoying unnecessary additional cost to the association and the board decided that in the future there will also be a symbolic payment to participate in the tasting event in connection with the general assembly to ensure that as many as possible show up when they've registered.

The board will meet again after the summer vacation.
