Organisers

This is an overdue thank you to ALL the organisers.

There has been much said of the problems that arose while during the two weeks, and rightly so because we all want things to be as perfect as possible. But i don’t want to dwell on these things here. Many people took time out to say personal ‘thank you’s to the organisers, but i thought it would be nice to put a thread on here to have some thing a bit more tangible and permanent.

My thoughts are these, I remember two things about the organisers, first, very very nervous and tense people in orange waiting for the next thing to go wrong or the next complaint to come their way. But also people who, when you talked to them about, I don’t know, the weather, were friendly and would bend over backwards to provide whatever help (or mothering) you needed.

This was my first easa, as it was for many other people, and I have no comparisons I can make, but what I do know is these were the best two weeks of my life, and a large part of that was the efforts put in by the organisers.

I also know plenty of them were still working hard in the weeks that most of us have been just trying to integrate back in to wider society. Thank you thank you thank you.

Greece, you have a lot to live up to. And I cant wait to get there :)
