"Open Heart - Open Door"

Dear friend and member of the “Open Heart – Open Door” programme,

At the International Convention in Glasgow 2007 we will once again hold an “Open Heart – Open Door Lunch”. For this occasion we would like to update our list of members of “Open Heart – Open Door”. If you would like to join please see the form below.

If you are already a member can you please confirm that you wish to continue to be member of the programme. If I do not receive an answer by 31 December 2006, your name will be deleted. We have to update the list and the first thing we require is your e-mail-address.

Please reply to : kon.rad@netway.at. I am the one to have started this programme and it is very dear to my heart that “Open Heart – Open Door” continues. It started in 1995, 11 years ago! At that time, many of us were not on email. Today it is essential to have an email address and I really need you to respond to this request! When the new list is completed, you will receive one copy by e-mail.

Please email to the above address to receive an up to date list.

With my very best wishes and friendship

Heidrun Konrad, SI/E Immediate Past President
