July 18, 2005 Dear VfE coordinators, dear friends, though some of you will enjoy a summer vacation at the moment, I still want to send you some news about Volunteers for Europe! VfE Contact Making Seminar 2005 Our application to EU grants has been successful and we just started the registration process for our 3rd VfE seminar taking place from October 19-24, 2005 in the EAY Training Centre in Litomysl, Czech Republic. All information also can be found at our website (news/training events). List of National VfE Coordinators The list has been updated! Some addresses has been updated at the online list. A paper version you can download from the website, too (contact details). VfE Market Place on website Unfortunately the VfE Market place so far has not become very "lively". It is dependent on your input! If you should have open placements or volunteers still looking for a placement - please send the information (if possible also the data-files) to our email address: vfe@eay.org Also information would be interesting where in general are placements in your YMCAs (even if they might be "occupied" in the moment!). This market place could be a very helpful tool for our volunteer exchange programme. Let's try to make it "alive"! So far, have a great summer time, with kind regards, Beate Turck EAY Volunteers for Europe Programme Group www.vfe.eay.org vfe@eay.org
