| SHAPE Travel Group | |||||
| WHO ARE WE? For several decades, since the mid 1970's, The SHAPE TRAVEL Group has played a very important part in the social and recreational life of our multinational community at SHAPE. The SHAPE Travel Group is a group of volunteers from many countries who research, plan, organise and lead trips for all SHAPE members, their families and guests. A wealth of experience built up over the years has brought about our reputation of running interesting and well organised trips which passengers can enjoy in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. We are an official non-profit SHAPE Group 2 activity. No club membership fees are needed to sign up on our trips. WHAT IS OUR PURPOSE? SHAPE is an ideal place from which to travel to other European countries and find out more about their people, their history and their heritage. We hope that our trips will enhance solidarity, friendship and mutual understanding among members of the whole SHAPE community. WHERE DO WE GO? Almost everywhere! Our programme is wide and varied. It is planned to appeal to all ages and interests. We offer mostly midweek day trips by coach with occasional weekend excursions. Longer haul destination to exciting places are also offered from time to time. Our trips include sightseeing tours, shopping expeditions, cultural visits and often cover special events. HOW DO I FIND OUT ABOUT THESE TRIPS? Details on all our trips are published in SHAPE COMMUNITY LIFE, on www.shapeo2day.com; click on "Group II and Associations," and then "Travel Group," on AFN Television and Radio, posters on various notice boards and in many of the Nation's own news magazines. We also have this website (www.geocities.com/shapetravelgroup), and an e-mail address at [email protected]. Please let us know if you want to be added to our e-mail list to receive regular news and updates from us. We treat e-mail addresses as strictly confidential. HOW DO I SIGN UP?
