AARO - Summer Picnic - Zofin Garden Restaurant - Sunday July 10th
Dear AARO Members,
The picnic is approaching fast, why not cap off the holiday week with an afternoon enjoying your choice of indulgence at Zofin? Full details of the event are below.
We need final confirmation of attendance by this Friday, July 1st. You are welcome to invite friends and make a party of it, if you let me know in advance a table can be set aside for groups of 6 or more.
For your information, it is possible that this will be AARO Prague's final event. Pending a statement from our President, Bill Harter, I regret to inform you that there is a strong possibility, in the absence of a sensible proposition from the membership, that the group will shortly be closed down. Details of how this will happen and what will become of existing AARO Memberships and paid dues, will be addressed in due course.
For this reason, besides the obvious pleasures the event offers, I urge you on behalf of the Board and AARO Prague, to come along and support the group on July 10th for what may be the last time. If that proves to be the case, let's go out in style.

AARO - Summer Picnic - Zofin Garden Restaurant - Sunday July 10th
Dear AARO Members,
Please save the date of Sunday July 10th from noon for our annual summer event. We will return once more to Zofin Garden Restaurant, venue of our last two successful summer events, for their excellent all-you-can-eat-and-drink buffet.
Further details to be announced shortly. In the meantime, I'd like to inform you that, owing to price rises we will be politely requesting 100 CZK per head from paid up members. Guests are welcome, as many as you wish, for the still-reasonable cost of 500 CZK per person. We will be seated, as usual, in the bandstand pavilion which is exclusively reserved for AARO members and guests.
Looking forward to seeing you on July 10th.
