Agenda:
1) About the Christmas reception in 2008 and its context. Collecting all necessary documentation.
2) Payment of the balance.
3) Christmas Dinner
4) Various
Step 1) Some hints concerning the Christmas: the families involved in the project are 36, while children will be hosted 41, since 5 families have invited two children.
A warm welcome to three new families: Bazzocchi Giuseppe / De Stefano Stefani, Bolognesi Moreno / Knobs Angela, Nicola Zanini / Zurzolo Margherita.
new families have been provided with all necessary information in direct talks.
We welcome the return of Giovanni Veronesi finally can resume the reception of Yana, until now prevented by ill health of the child.
briefly on the context: the strict enforcement of a decree of Belarus a few years ago, will prevent 6 children to spend the entire month in Italy planned for others. They are the children who attend "class license" (as defined at the end of the school year because the boys face a test) should not miss too many days of school and can therefore only come for about 15 days.
other news about the signing by President Lukashenko's decree (10/14/2008) on the reception abroad. E 'confirmed the validity of the agreement with Italy and then also the "continuity" as a mode of reception. And this is certainly good news when one considers that only a couple of months ago there was talk of likely major changes like: children should not exceed the age of 14 years, the hospitality of the same child may not be repeated for more than two or three times, etc..
Step 2) As expected, we do not have yet the fares and then we were not able to prepare the "account" for families. Report the amount as soon as possible and so each family can make a transfer to: Ass Will. Bo Ladybug Puer Group c / o BANCA POPOLARE DI MILANO - Ag 209 Bologna - Via Corticella, 184 / 3 - IBAN IT50 T 05584 02 412 000 000 008 476 - NB subsidies for on-line or by other requirements, could serve the Ladybug tax code, here it is: CF 91231680371. Please write down this information because from now on will be the transfer mode to use.
Step 3) The Christmas dinner this year will be at the Social Centre "Villa presses" on a Colombarola, 46 Bologna (area Corticella), street parking adjacent, especially via Gorki (Coop).
The date, almost forced, is scheduled for Friday, December 12, 2008 at 20.00 .
We will have a nice lounge that can accommodate about 180 people which is the number of guests who would like to reach. To do this it is desirable that all members are present (we are 54 families) and actively inviting friends and relatives. I "referring to the group" will be in contact with all members to collect membership that must be received by the end of November.
Social Centre take care of everything. The menu includes water, wine, two first, two seconds, and sweet liqueur (coffee will be eat at the bar below). The shareholding is set at € 25 per person , like last year, for children aged 6 to 12 years we expect a share of € 10, while for children below 6 years, participation is free. The proceeds (50% of collection) will be donated to the orphanage in Gomel.
rely heavily on fishing which has always made a significant contribution to the fundraiser. As always, prizes will consist of items that every family can provide (also welcomed cakes) and other contributions that members may be able to obtain from companies known to them ("Sponsor"). For me, I have already contacted the Coop Reno which we hope will help this year with his rich gifts.
other initiatives are in place: Sonia Messori (with the help of Iglis) is working on a desk calendar with pictures of some children in our group that will be sold at 7 / 8 €. Print a paragraph of that calendar copies of the orders that the members will (No phone 051/6759170). Isabella Fuligni has contact with a laboratory that manufactures Christmas gadgets, with various prices, and even these need to be ordered directly from Isabella (051/6516752, cell. 335 8309199, or in the blog referred to in paragraph 4, in the other) .
Step 4) Miscellaneous. We are pleased to announce that Andrew Fuligni created a Ladybug Blog . All families have access to a computer will be able to communicate with us. Here is the site: http://associazionecoccinella.blogspot.com/ (just type: associazionecocinella. Blogspot. Com)
Sincerely.
Bologna, October 31, 2008 The President
