53rd
Annual General Assembly (AGA): The 2021 Interline Celebration
Chief Marketing/Events Officer, Julian
Chau, is currently updating the brochures for the 53rd AGA, pre-AGA and
post-AGA tours. The
package costs will not be more than the rates published in the brochures this
year and could be reduced but there are no communication lines open at the
moment to discuss this with the tour operator and hotel management. As a
reminder, the revised dates of the 53rd AGA packages are
as follows:
10–17 October for the Pre-AGA Tour:
Java Grand Tour;
17–22 October for the 53rd Annual General Assembly (AGA): The 2021 Interline Celebration;
22–26 October for the Post-AGA
Tour: Land of the Dragons and the Lesser Sundas. There will be only one
post-AGA tour with two groups because WACA has been fortunate to be allocated
with two Phinisi Schooners.
The
modified brochures will be posted in the Event
Calendar section of the WACA website as soon as possible: www.waca.org/events.
54th Annual General Assembly (AGA): The 2022
Interline Celebration
The 54th AGA is scheduled to be
held at the beginning of October 2022 in Amman, Jordan. The link below beckons
us to “Visit Jordan” which can’t come soon enough for so many in these dark
times. Members will be delighted to see WACA Ambassador for Blind Children, Suheil
Baqaeen, featured in the video as the chosen Jordanian artist. Suheil is
the country’s Ambassador for People with Visual Impairment:

Office
Restrictions Update
The
government of the Province of Quebec continues to leave the city of Montreal in
a “red zone” during the continuation of the novel coronavirus pandemic which
means that restaurants, cinemas, stadiums, gymnasia, etc. remain closed. Offices
can remain open with the continued limit on the number of staff a company is
allowed to work in its offices at any given time which means I can only work
from the office on a limited number of days per month so I continue to work
from home as required between my restricted office visits. The government
restrictions will be in effect until at least 8 January, however, a four-day
break over the Christmas holiday period will allow a limited number of
immediate family members to gather socially on two occasions during that time
frame.
Grand
Venture Bonanza
And
the Winners is ...
The seventh and final draw of 2020
for a USD 100.00 cash prize donated by WACA was made today in the WACA office
by myself due to the social distancing restrictions that are currently in
place. There were 316 tickets in the draw and the lucky winner is Pat
Lindeman from the Vancouver Interline Club with ticket number 14402. Congratulations.
KEEP WELL. STAY SAFE.
Yours in interlining,
