My dear tablers,
After visiting the world IRO meeting in Brasov and Capital Meeting in Brussels I found out that we are not alone.
Here is my report from Czech Republic, Prague, heart of Europe, city with 1,2 million inhabitants, centre of business for Central Eastern Europe, target of many tourist for its historical beauty, wonderful city to live and be an international Tabler.
Tabling in Czech Republic started in Prague after the concept was brought in from Germany, Austria, Netherlands, RTBI and RTI. Especially tablers from RT49 Weiden helped our founding members to ADOPT, ADAPT and IMPROVE ideas and practises functioning all around Western Europe and indeed already in some former Eastern bloc countries.
RT1 Brussels got involved heavily with the Prague Tablers and thus in autumn 1992 RT1 Prague was chartered. We personally thanked them in Brussels during the Capital Meeting. The Prague charter went down in history for more than 600 Tablers from all over Europe participated.
In 1992 we chartered RT2 Ceske Budejovice which was closed recently.
In 1997 we opened RT3 in the city of Pisek which is doing well.
Here in Prague we have only 4-5 active members and about 3-5 oldies attending regularly our meetings. We need your help!
How can you help? Find out if any of your members are now living in Prague, Pisek or anywhere else in the Czech Republic or fly frequently here. Publish this request in your national magazine or write one up yourselves.
Let's try to help us grow; lets bring international tabling to our tables in the Czech Republic.
We want to have at least 13 active, young tablers at the end of 2008 in each of our tables, please support us in this task. If we reunite our efforts as tablers on international level we will be strong and healthy on local level again. Also please help us in setting up new tables in other cities.
From our side we will try even harder to increase our membership and we promise that this will happen with your support and encouragement.
Your in Table,
Henry
