Hi Dusty,
Can you please remind all the Branches of the Minden Day celebrations on August
1st 2009? As we now have a programme for the service at the memorial ( see
attachment) we really need to know definite numbers of those attending. Herford
Branch have got back to me, they will attend with their standard. We would like
as many standards as possible. I have managed to provisionally book
accommodation, so if anyone wants to stay over, please let me know by July 11th
2009. This date is also for those attending the Minden Day.
Thank you
Petra
