(Ir)regular Meeting Place
Our regular meeting takes place every last Tuesday of the month at different places at the moment (mostly at Restaurant Werdguet): From 7:00 p.m. you are invited to join us! Just have a chat, meet new people, etc. Especially in the colder season this event has become one of the most attended ones.
How to get there? See description directly at the corresponding event.
Non members are welcome...
The new current committe in charge, you will find here.
A short note from the Secretary
A long note from the secretary
Let me wind up my note this time with a rather unpleasant
reminder: As you all know and as laid out at our last AGM,
various Committee members have been in office for years, for
decades (!) even. So kind of a fatigue cannot be
denied… That means, as per today, surely two, likely
even more will irrevocably step down per February
2026, eg stand one last time for
re-election at
the AGM 2025.
For the proper functioning of the club, these
portfolios are indispensable.
So, if no successor(s) should be available for 2026, it
indeed will jeopardize the future of the ESCZ! Therefore we
cannot do otherwise but to appeal once more to you
all: Think it over earnestly whether you might jump in and
keep our beloved club running well beyond 2025
-
and let us know in time!
After all, we want to look fo
rward to celebrating another big birthday party, don't
we???
Do
not
worry, we don't
push you into the Committee and we don't
lock you up there for decades. But yes, someone will have to
"jump
over the blade".
Everybody who has ever been on our Committee, will tell you
that it was a great and educational time there.
Of course, the quality and frequency of our events is
guaranteed and will be maintained all through 2025
-
we promise you that too...
The Restaurant Werdguet
"Saal"
in which we run our AGM's
and various slide shows:
This room has a proud age of 50 years
-
who would have thought that?
Next year, it will undergo a renovation, i.e. the sliding
walls are not really sliding anymore, rather are they
grinding along. At the moment, we cannot guarantee if this
room will be available for our next AGM. But we will not
hold it out in the snow, that's
for sure.
We recently had a wonderful guided tour through
"the
Valley"
in Kemptthal which was the Maggi manufacture in past times.
The guide brought me to the idea of visiting the real birth
place of Maggi in Singen (DE). Guided tours are offered
there as well. We think of December 2025 to do this,
combined with a stay at the lovely Christmas Market nearby.
A big challenge will be the transport. As you know, the
Deutsche Bahn
DB loves to strike
before Christmas or to cancel train connections without
replacement, therefore, we must set up a
"Plan
B"
with some private cars which would relocate stranded
travellers back to Switzerland.
I wish you a nice autumn season.
