Powwow Report for Latvia - Riga (Oct 23 2004)

Report from  Jana Teteris
The first Latvian powwow was held in Riga on 23 October 2004, with a healthy turnout of 24 people. This powwow had been planned as an informal get-together and allowed participants the opportunity of putting faces to names (and nicknames), exchange contact information and discuss issues ranging from the spelling of the word 'Euro' (currently an issue of contention in Latvia), to telecommunications terminology, to film subtitling.

On behalf of those participants based in Riga (Uldis & his wife Ineta, Vents, Maris, Valters, Inga, Igors & his wife, Guna) I should like to thank those of you who travelled from further afield: Marite from Tukums, Andris & Undine from Liepaja, Ilga from Aizkraukle, Inara & family from Ventspils. A special thanks to our Lithuanian colleagues, who made it all the way from Klaipeda (Ernestas) and Vilnius (Aleksandr & his wife and 2 friends). Last but not least, thankyou to Dziuginta and Liena, who travelled all the way from Finland.

Thanks are also due to Uldis for organising the logistics. Here's to 2005!

It would appear that there is a bug in the system and therefore I haven't been able to enter details of those who attended the Pow-wow (and consequently, nobody has been awarded any 'Browniz').

I have sent 2 support requests and have been promised that the problem will be rectified asap.

In the mean time - please be patient, as the situtation is beyond my control.

And thank you all for attending our first Latvian Pow-Wow! Especially I thank our Lithuanian guests, who come not only from Lithuania proper, but also Dziuginta, who took trouble to specially travel from Finland!

Thank you all and I'm sure we'll meet again- somewhere, sometime, when time comes!

Best Regards and Thank You All once again!

Sincerely - Uldis
