SES picnic, Saturday, July 11, 11:00 - 1:00
Instead of our usual monthly meeting, in July we'll have a potluck picnic on our boat on Lake Union. Besides that, we'll go around the lake in an electric boat (see a photo at http://tinyurl.com/l33fgo ). Because of that, it would be good to know how many people are coming. The electric boat can hold ten passengers; if there are more we'll plan to take two trips around the lake. If you intend to come, either for sure or possibly, contact me (using the special address below), and I'll give you instructions for finding us. The event will begin at 11:00, and finish about 1:00. Please bring the kind of food you'd bring to a park -- don't count on an oven, a lot of utensils, etc. I'll have plates, silverware, cups, and various juices and sodas, so no need to bring those.

NOREK will take place in Sidney, BC, in September. Join the Yahoo! Group NOREK to participate in planning for NOREK or just to get the latest information. Here is the first official announcement from Wally du Temple:
I invite you to participate in "NOREK" - Northwest Regional Esperanto Conference - which will take place from September 11th to 13th. The conference hotel is the Victoria Airport Travelodge Hotel. Please order the rooms needed for Friday and Saturday nights the 11th and 12th of September. Be sure to mention that you are an Esperantist and will be taking part in the conference. As usual, there will be entertainment components to the program as well. The theme for the serious part of this year's NOREK is "The Year of Astronomy", but there will definitely be beautiful photos and videos of the cosmos. Information about Sidney can be found at Welcome to Sidney, about your hotel at Victoria Airport Travelodge Hotel, and about a new "gallery" at The Marine Mammal Gallery.
