A NOTE FROM THE PRESIDENT

   25th February 2009

 Dear Friends,

 For some time now, to help me sleep, I count Tractions: 1… 2… 3… 4… 5… 6… 7…

 And tonight, I woke up and realised: That’s it!

567  Tractions registered - and more than  1100 tractionists !

 And that means the magic number of 1000 Tractions does now seem eminently achievable!

 Be aware that you need to be registered to receive the welcome pack full of surprises, a unique rally plaque, entry to Friday evening’s Welcome Buffet (1500 to 2000 people!) ….

Of course you should register simply to enjoy this unique event!

And of course you should register for the opportunity to share exceptional moments amongst friends….

 

You will receive a confirmation of your registration – if it does not arrive within a fortnight please do not hesitate to let us know.

 But – we need you too:

    If you would like to offer your services for a few hours during the “75 Heures”, please contact Yannick: 

toussaint.yannick@wanadoo.fr

    If you have a Citroën and/or items for the auction, please contact François:

francois.henot@orange.fr

 

Stop Press : All 425 places for the Gala Dinner at Pré Fleuri are now booked…

 

I should like to finish this note by acknowledging Madame Yvonne Denis who, at 82, remains a devoted Tractionist and has already submitted her application for “75 Heures pour 75 Ans”!

 Is she going to be our most senior participant?

 

I thank you all for everything you are doing to ensure this anniversary will be remembered as one of the finest meetings ever in the history of our beloved Traction….

 

A très bientôt…. à Arras ….

                                                                           André JACQUEMAIN
