Group email on April 22

Post by jarkko »

Hi to all who are coming to Hydra!
I have today sent another group email. If you didn't get it, please email or PM me.

This is what I wrote:

A. Payments of the Participation Fee & the Epidaurus Day Trip

If you have already paid your fees, ignore this and go to B! (I have also emailed confirmations of all the payments already received; some payments to the bank account may still be under way)
If you haven’t paid yet, please do it now. Sorry to give a push, but the due-date was April 20, and we urgently need to nail the number of participants. Our local organizer, The Cinema Club of Hydra, has to reserve and pay tickets to the cruise through the Corinth Canal, to make sure there is room in the quite small boat. We also have to sort tickets to the Cinema nights, and the Municipality wants to know how many members there will be. Deadline for all these final confirmations is end of April. So please pay your fees (12 or 82 eur per person) without delay. After the end of April I have to remove all unpaid reservations. – However, if you for financial reasons are not able to send the payment now but want to do it later, let me know, and we will find a solution to the problem.

If you have decided not to come, let me know now.

[Email or PM me if you haven't got the payment instructions!]

B. Reserve your boat tickets from Piraeus to Hydra

Tickets can be booked online at https://hellenicseaways.gr/en/

C. How to get from the airport to Piraeus

Read the info here: http://leonardcohenforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=36787

D. How to find other members

Many first-timers have asked how they find the others on the island. We don’t use any name-tags because this is a holiday-type of gathering (with some program!). Finding other Cohenites will not be a problem. Our meeting point will be – as always – the ROLOI TAVERN located in very central place in the port and next to the clock tower. With this big group I am sure that there are a few or more members almost always at Roloi. You can also ask the very friendly staff of Roloi to show you some members. – And quite many member´s use T shirts with some familiar design!
The cinema tickets (or lists) and other last-minute information will also be at Roloi.

E. Daily program

Without any feedback from the Municipality yet, we still have to keep the final daily schedule open until we know if they have some plans. I will send another update later. The program will also be shown at Roloi.

F. The Epidaurus excursion

Some of you have asked for more info about the boat/bus tour. Here are some valuable links. You can easily find a lot more by Google.

Hydra in May

Post by Anima musicale »

Hello from Italy, is there any Cohenite coming to Hydra in May? Unfortunately I read too late about the June meeting and planned my first visit to Hydra from May 14 to 19. Do you know about any activities at that time of the year? It would be nice meeting someone who is familiar with Hydra related to LC ... Thank you for any advice! Anima
