Hi all,

I would like to extend an invitation to all CPF members to attend this year's get together in Germany from the 17th to the 19th of August. The location will be at a private camping area not too far from Heidelberg.

This link, http://www.yllux.de/www/mediawiki/index.php/Sommertreffen_2007, describes the location and facilities. There is running water, electricity, a rest room, and a village not too far from the camping area. A small fee for renting the facilities applies, but can be minimal if shared. CPF member ho71ko is in charge of organizing the weekend, so please PM either him or me for more details. We would like to have a series of workshops during the weekend on topics such as modding, upgrades or whatever we can work out. If you have a talent or skill you would be willing to share with others, please let us know. I also thought a raffle or door prizes would be nice. I have a few ideas in mind such as Deoxit pens or battery testers and with some group input, we might have some bigger prizes.

The camping area is sufficiently large, but you will need to bring a tent or sleep in your auto. I have some additional camping gear I could bring, but let me know ahead of time. Last year's get together was great fun and the selection of lights that everyone brought was impressive. I did the cooking of hamburgers with all the extras, and I will do steaks this year as well. This is a great opportunity to meet other CPF members in person and should prove to be a great event.

I have probably forgotten to include some information, so please post here and either I or one of the German CPF members can answer your questions. I hope to see as many of you as possible this August. Thanks,
 
Airfare can't be that much from Oz, right? ;)

However, if you can make it, I'll throw in a t-bone steak for your efforts!
 
Hi Greg,
I'm looking forward to your burgers :D !
I'll be there on Friday about 1600/ 1700h, the camping area is only about 150km away from me,I'm shure, it will be a great weekend!
Best
Jens
 
Be sure to let me know your favorite burger toppings as well, i.e tomatoes, cheese, BBQ sauce, jalapenos(for Holger), etc.

I think this year's get together will be great. I've been looking forward to it since last year's. Also, everyone be sure to bring a raincoat, just in case.;)
 
I'll take a steak on my burgers :laughing:
Since Nürnberg we know that Holger's favorites are SCAMPIS :whistle:

I'll eat everything.
Bye
Jens
 
I am a bit surprised we haven't had some interest from the rest of Europe. France, England, the Netherlands, Switzerland? This is prime vacation time for Europe and would be an excellent time to meet with other flashlight enthusiasts to discuss our hobby and passion. I'm going to bring a spool of GITD cord if anyone wants to share the tricks to lanyard making and I believe there is going to be a discussion or class on modding. Wotan will most likely be bringing his collection of machined light bodies and his impressive array of axes and tomahawks.

There is still plenty of time before the camping trip to let us know if you'd like to attend. I hope you can find the time as I know it will be a weekend of fun. Thanks,
 
We still get together occasionally, especially when someone gets a cool new light. I know Holger is waiting for a new one to come in, and I've recently picked up a couple new ones as well. Send me a PM if you'd like to meet up for a mini-GTG.
