'''eGA generates and shares meetings'''

at least it seemed to. We had already had
notification of some meetings but the openness of
all at the eGA was such that people wanted to
share their country's meetings with others. Some
of these on these two pages have come straight
from the eGA bulletins. Please keep sending more
in so that people know what is going on and where.

'''Servas Peace Group Belgium & Luxemburg’'''

'''Sunday, June 18, 2006'''

SERVAS MEGA PICNIC AT 1.00 pm & BREUGHEL WALK at 11.00 am

On the occasion of its first anniversary the ''Servas Peace Group'', ''Belgium and Luxembourg‘'' invites you to a
giant picnic: you can meet people, celebrate and
definitely enjoy the summer sun.

Do you know that Servas Belgium & Luxemburg has
more than 300 members?

This is the opportunity to meet, to learn to know
each other, to enjoy sitting and eating together. A
wide outdoor space is waiting for us, and a large
indoor centre is available, as well, just in case :-).

We’ll organise a walk for those who want: Breughel
walk, about 2 hours and start at 11:00

To enhance the quality of our organisation, the
‘Peace’ working group will try and address each one of
you to find out whether you feel like coming to our
mega picnic, whether you will register for the
Breughel walk, what you thought to bring for food,
and finally, how you see SERVAS.

In the meantime you can block the date of June 18
in your agenda, so you don’t miss the occasion and the
get-together…

'''Location for the celebration'''

Speelplein Begijnenborre

Bodegemstraat 113

1700 Dilbeek (near Brussels)


See you very soon,


The working group ''‘Peace’'' of SERVAS Belgium &
Luxemburg

and would be very happy to welcome Servas members from
neighbouring countries.

The province of Flevoland, one of the last reclaimed from the
sea (1940 to 1970), consists of new cities with new
architectural designs, organic farms and different land-art
objects. Large newly established nature reserves are of
international importance for migrating birds.

We have reserved a fantastic camping site to place your own
tent, camper or caravan, or rent a place in a tent for 6 to 8
persons provided by the organization (bring your own
sleeping bag and air mattress).

For the Friday evening meal, people bring their own food or
buy a take out from the camping snack bar. From Saturday
morning until departure on Sunday afternoon, we provide the
meals and snacks.

Wine, beer and soft drinks are at cost price.

Participation for the weekend (including camping, meals and tourist tax):

€50 per person (€7.50 extra for a place in the tent)

€30 for children, 4 to 17 (€7.50 extra for a place in tent)

(Children 3 and younger are free, they pay only €7.50 for a place in the tent if needed)

This weekend has space for 100 Servas members from the
Netherlands and 100 from neighbouring countries. Write as soon
as possible, for the early bird catches the worm.

Please register with:

. name of participant(s)
