Servas International Extraordinary General Assembly 2006
Some of you may have travelled to Italy in 1986 to attend the Servas International conference held in Rome. You have the opportunity to retrace your steps once again next year when Italy is the host for the S.I. Extraordinary General Assembly. The conference is being held in Latina from Sunday 2nd April to Saturday 8th April 2006. Latina is just a short 35 minutes rail journey south of Rome. The venue chosen is the Park Hotel which was the venue earlier this year for Servas Italy’s conference.
The registration fee for the conference is Euro 270 per person in a two/three share room or Euro 330 per person for single room occupancy and all rooms are airconditioned. The registration fee includes accommodation for six nights with ‘full board’. The Park Hotel is offering accommodation prior to and also after the conference at the special rate of Euro 45 per person per day (full board) in a two/three share room and Euro 55 per person per day (full board) for single room occupancy.
Conference registrations will be processed by the Reservation Department of the Park Hotel and a Servas Registration Application form will be made available shortly for downloading from our S.I. Exco website at www.servas.org/siexco .
It has been the practice for a S.I. General Assembly to be held every three years. The last conference was in July 2004 in Spain but earlier this year many ‘member’ countries of Servas International requested an additional General Assembly to be convened earlier than the planned conference for 2007.
Servas delegates from all parts of the world will assemble in Latina in April next year to discuss and vote on such matters as: Minutes of the last General Assembly held in Spain – Reports of all S.I. office holders – Audit reports – Programme of future activities of Servas International – Budgets – Election of Executive Committee and other S.I. officers and committee’s – Fees, regulations and procedures of Servas International. There are many other items that have to be reviewed and voted upon.
Whilst it is important that as many Servas delegates as possible attend the General Assembly, we welcome those members who are interested in coming along to experience the way that Servas International functions, enjoy the fellowship and making of new friendships.
In peace and friendship
Geoff Maltby
President – Servas International
