2010

WORLD POPS EVENTS

G'day all Aussie POPS

The website for the 2010 World POPS Meet & Championships is now available! Check it out at www.pops2010.it .

I have made enquiries about a possible group accommodation booking for the Australian contingent in nearby hotels. Let me know please if you are:

  1. Going and interested in group accommodation.

  2. Going but will make own arrangements for accommodation.

  3. Definitely not going.

  4. Undecided.

Other than what is on the website there are no other details at this time.

Although the event isn't until June next year, it will come soon enough, so need to start planning now. I would appreciate you letting me know as above please.
