Dear Members,
We are writing to you to confirm arrangements for the forthcoming visit of our friends from Thury-Harcourt. Please read this letter carefully and reply as soon as you can if you wish to participate in any way.
The dates are 21st August to 23rd August. The French party will arrive at St. Clare’s at about 5pm on Friday 21st August, and that first evening will be spent at home with host families. On Saturday 22nd we will meet at the coach park opposite the tram station at 8.30 am, to travel to Exmouth for a boat trip from 10 o’clock until 12 noon. The coach will then collect us and take us on to Exeter. We will be dropped at the quayside . Pick up from the quayside will be at 6pm and we will then go straight to the Harbour Inn at Axmouth for the dinner at 7.30pm. It may help your daytime choice of meal to know that the menu for dinner is roast beef and Yorkshire pudding.
The boat trip and meal for our guests are as always paid for by the twinning association, but hosts pay for their own meals and entertainment. The costs are
Boat trip: £6.50 per person
Dinner, including wine and entertainment £20 per person
Please note that it is not necessary to attend both boat trip and meal. We are hoping that there will be a good number taking part in the boat trip. Please feel free to invite friends and family to come along and join in the day.
Please find attached booking slips for both the meal and the boat trip. It is important that you make your bookings and pay by cheque by the 1st August. We need to know numbers in order to make final arrangements.
We are also looking for people to host our guests. We have already spoken to some of you who have hosted before, but would like to give everyone the opportunity to share in this rewarding experience. If you would like to host, please contact any member of the committee, as soon as possible so we can answer any questions you may have
