Join our «Intermediary Meeting» in Boston

Join our «Intermediary Meeting» in Boston, May 6 – 8, 2022

We will host this meeting, which had to be postponed twice due to the pandemic, finally in May of 2022. The meeting is open to all Young Girls and Old Boys and we invite you to join in on an inspiring trip to Boston! This remarkable achievement of our

Our club is only as alive as our regional groups are. The annual meetings of our Board are held in a different region every year for the purpose of staying in touch with the regional groups and meeting with members all over the world. In the past years we have held meetings, among other locations, in Istanbul, London, Siena, Munich, Vienna, Barcelona, Lausanne, Hamburg, Zurich, Bozen and Rheingau. It has become a tradition that the Intermediary Meeting is accompanied by a great program, which all members are invited to join.

WE LIKE TO PAY TRIBUTE TO OUR REGIONAL GROUPS

In the coming year, we finally have the opportunity to visit the RG USA-East Coast, headed by our esteemed Young Girl Patricia Anklin. Her RG faces many challenges. For one, its members live in different cities in the area. Secondly, the member constitution fluctuates heavily d ue to many students staying only for the length of their study programs, just like it is the case for the RG UK-London. Patricia is not held up by these challenges. She organizes recurring events and manages to attract Young Girls and Old Boys living in the Boston and New York vicinity and along the entire East Coast, as well as those who are just passing through on a trip.

It is not only the attractive neighborhood of Boston that drove us to hold the next board meeting there, but first and foremost the wish to pay tribute to the admirable work Patricia has accomplished for the club over many years.
