Dear Members and Friends of the ABS,
|
one mega-event is being chased by the next: The UEFA European Football Championships are over, where England was defeated by a crowd of football players from somewhere in southern Europe, and now the Olympic Games in Tokyo have begun, where UK athletes are showing extraordinary success. As I write these lines, the UK is ranked 6th in the medal table with a total of 28 medals, which is absolutely amazing - and the games are not over yet!
|
It is the team of the Austro-British Society which definitely deserves a gold medal as well, as 12 outstanding events have been offered to the ABS members in June and July - making an average of 1.5 events per week! Dear distinguished members - no other bilateral society manages anything like this!
|
But the reward for the organising team is not a medal - it is the joy of our ABS members, the happiness to meet again and the incredible atmosphere you bring to our events and the appreciation you show at being united face-to-face with friends! This gives us more than a medal could ever do!
|
Therefore, we keep on performing and hoping that we are allowed to do so in the weeks and months to come!
|

PRESIDENTIAL MESSAGE
|
|
Danke, dass Sie zur Sicherheit bei Events beitragen!
|
Es war Gegenstand von Diskussionen im Vorfeld der Wiederaufnahme unserer Events, ob die Einhaltung der 3G-Richtlinien erstens von unseren Mitgliedern akzeptiert werden würde, und zweitens, ob wir auch die organisatorischen Voraussetzungen für die Überprüfung schaffen können.
|
Nach bislang 12 erfolgreich umgesetzten Events bin ich erfüllt von zwei Gefühlen:
|
- Freude darüber, dass die Event-Organisation so großartig funktioniert. An dieser Stelle ein herzliches Danke an alle ABS-Boardmember, die den Einlass inkl. 3G-Kontrolle mit viel Einfühlungsvermögen, Freundlichkeit und Höflichkeit durchführen. Vielen Dank!
- Dankbarkeit Ihnen allen gegenüber, unseren Mitgliedern, dass Sie alle so kooperativ mithelfen, unsere Events zu einem Erfolg zu machen - einerseits durch die bereitwillige Mithilfe bei der 3G-Kontrolle, und auch dafür, dass Sie unsere Events mit so viel Lebensfreude bereichern und so zahlreich besuchen.
Eine Bitte zum Abschluss: Setzen Sie bitte alles daran, dass wir einander auch langfristig weiterhin bei Events persönlich begegnen können - achten Sie auf Ihre Gesundheit und ich freue mich, Sie bald wiederzusehen!
|
|
Ihr Prof. Dr. Kurt Tiroch,
