Hi folks,
donŽt know if someone is familiar with canoe polo, the game where the
biggest problem is to get the horses into water.. :-))

OK, serious. Next week will be the WM in Essen, in the middle of the
"Ruhr-area". Coming Sunday is the long opening ceremony and from monday to
following sunday a great bunch of nations will fight out the next World
Champion titles. I donŽt got the complete list, but there will be half
Europe(D, NL, BEL, F, CH, I, SU, P, E, ..?), Kiwis, Down under, Argentina,
Brazil, CAN, USA, S-Afrika, aso.

I will be a member of one referee-assistant team for the complete
chamionship, great honor for me and a very rare chance to see so much games
from the first line.
If you get some connections to some of "your" team members - I would be
happy to meet some new faces.
AND the shop from Zoelzer (www.zoelzer.de), our most famous manufacturer for
touring- and see-paddling equipment, is only very few miles away, maybe a
good chance for some "orders" to your teams?? Everybody (as I know) will get
a card which allows to travel by public transportations systems (busses,
"tube", railway), so no problem to get to Essen-Kupferdreh.

IŽll camp there a few days and will travel some days between my home and
Essen also. IŽll get my PW-Shirt with me and while in Essen, my cell phone
No. germany +175 45 74 224

Tomorrow late afternoon will be next meeting, IŽll be there..
bye
Jochen Grikschat
