4/13/2007 - In line with their outstanding track record of converting heritage properties to prestige hotels, the management of the Corinthia Palace, Attard have kindly offered us the use of their premises for our Annual General Meeting, to be held on Friday 13 April at 6pm.

We urge you not to miss this meeting as it will not be an ordinary AGM where one listens to endless reports being read out. Even if you can’t volunteer your time, most of you have excellent suggestions to make that can be acted upon and this is the opportunity to raise them.

We will be grateful if you could indicate your attendance so that we know how many to seat...
