On a balmy evening in May some 60 volunteers gathered in the garden of La Maison de Tara to share experiences,and impressions, pose questions and listen to news of future developments.  It was a good opportunity to meet new and old friends, and also to enjoy some delicious snacks and local wines.  

Anne-Marie Struijik and Guylaine Lozano thanked everyone for their commitment and their flexibility without which the house could not function.  They clarified certain organizational points and highlighted some new ways of working together.  François Audetat presented plans for ongoing volunteer training.    A suggestions box is now available in the dining room and, of course, members of the Management Committee welcome comments and new ideas.
