19th SI of Europe Congress in Amsterdam EARLY Registration EXTENDED to 1st June 2009

Every four years the European Federation of Soroptimist International hosts a Congress for all its members and their guests: SI/E Board and the Congress Committee have done a superlative job of organizing the 19th SI/E Congress to be held in Amsterdam on 10th-12th July 2009.
We have decided to extend the deadline for early registration to 1st JUNE!

This important SI/E event only takes place ONCE every four years. In addition to the speakers presented on the Soroptimists go for Water website – www.soroptimistsgoforwater.nl
French oceanographer and environmentalist Fabien Cousteau has agreed to address the audience. To read more about his professional background and commitment to this theme, go to his website www.fabiencousteau.org

We also are offering professionally run theme sessions on a number of topics, and you will have a chance to learn about the wonderful water projects supported by our Unions and Clubs at sponsorship of more than € 500,000.
Most importantly of all, the Congress is a unique opportunity to see Soroptimist friends and meet new ones at the fabulous social events.

Indeed, Amsterdam with its various attractions is worth the journey!
So, show your support for our Federation and register now. The fee covers the events of the day and also refreshments during breaks and the lunch.
There are also a number of options for accommodations. For those of you who have had experience with professional conventions, you will know that this price is by no means extravagant.

SI/E President Mariet Verhoef-Cohen,
Chairperson of the Congress Committee, Janny Spierenburg and the entire SI/E Board all look forward to welcoming you, Soroptimist Club members, and all your guests, to this exceptional event.

Warm regards,
Board of SI/E Federation
