AARO - **Last Call** - Summer Picnic - June 19th, Zofin Garden Restaurant

Dear AARO Members,

Deadline for RSVPs was yesterday, but it's not too late to be included for the Summer Picnic on Saturday June 19th. Remember this is one of AARO's tentpole events and one where you get much of the value of your annual dues returned to you - so if you don't have plans for the 19th, come along and claim what's yours and have a good time in the process! Why not invite a few friends and make a day of it?

Please let me know your plans at your earliest convenience, thanks. Those who have already sent a response need not do so again.

Regards,

Jeremy

Dear AARO Members,

Following the success of last year's summer event, we are returning to Zofin Garden Restaurant for our annual Summer Picnic, one of the most popular AARO events of the year. We have reserved the pavilion bandstand for the afternoon of Saturday June 19th from noon, on offer will be a high-class, all-you-can-eat buffet with unlimited beer, wine and soft drinks. Buffet comprises grilled meats and fish, salads, pizzas, pastas, cold dishes and various delicious desserts. Vegetarians will be well catered for, and you really can help yourself to as much or as little as you feel like.

Those who attended last year will remember what a pleasant afternoon it was, watching the boats on the river, letting the world go by. In the event that Mother Nature has something other than sunshine in mind, we will be under cover but rain or shine, there are few better places in the center of Prague to spend a summer afternoon in good company, eating and drinking to your heart's content. The restaurant has a well-equipped play area for younger children, plus a playground right next door, all in view of the pavilion, so parents can keep an eye on their charges without worry.

There is no charge for paid-up AARO Members, you may also invite guests at a cost of 450 CZK per head. In addition, we are offering a special rate for new members who join at the event - receive 6 months AARO membership at the discounted cost of 1,400 CZK for a couple or family, or 1,200 CZK for an individual. This will also include the Picnic, so no additional fee will be required for those who join on the day.

Please rsvp no later than Monday May 31st to this address, thank you.

Your AARO Board
