The committee has decided not to arrange a tour but to hold a 2 day gathering in Cannes on the 4/5 September. Bearing in mind the distances involved it was felt that Alpiners and their cars would prefer to travel at their own pace and possibly extend their time in France.
We also considered the time of year, September being selected because it would not be so hot and crowded in Cannes as it would be in July (and cheaper!!!)

It was also thought that this would help the European Alpiners who wanted to join us to be able to make their own decisions on how to travel. We suggest that groups of about 6 Alpines could travel together, this being arranged on an ad hock basis.
