Hello Maarten
I am very happy to see that you are offering to help us in the near future! I
am quite excited, because I believe that we can learn a lot from you, as you
have experience with chapter administration. I heading home tomorrow, but will
be back in Stellenbosch during the first week of January. If you are in the
area, which is very close to Cape Town, I will be willing to show you around.
Just drop me a mail. I really hope you enjoy it here in South Africa!
Kind regards
Lourie

>Belgium/Luxembourg event, and with a small team we are struggling to set up a

chapter. This is very complicated due to the language problems in
Belgium. I would really be thrilled to convince the team to organise the WLM
competition in SA too. It's an ideal starter ('pilot programme') for a chapter.

>January. Who can help me and wants to show me the region during this period
>(incl. New year's eve)?
