We know this is early, but due to popular demand (and hotel reservations~), the next date was set.
CITY/REGION: Schiermonnikoog, the Netherlands
MEETUP PLACE: Hotel van der Werff, Reeweg 2, 9166 PX Schiermonnikoog
DATE: 3 May 2025
TIME: 11.00
MEETUP PLAN:
Planning
We meet up at 11 AM at Hotel van der Werff. In front of the hotel is a small music tent called ‘Het Beukenootje’ where we will get together. After we all meet up together we can either do card shopping or, for those who are willing, go for a bike ride around the island.
13.00 we will meet at another at the Berkenplas for lunch and card writing. They have been welcoming us for the past 5 years and love to see us again.
After the bus for the last ferry, 19.00 for those who remain on the island can go to dinner to Duinzicht. They have some delicious food over there and we can still enjoy the company of each other even though with less people. This last one of course is an option.
Postcards
TBD
Bicycles
The lunchroom is best reached by bike, and it might be nice to go over the island after lunch and write for the people who want to. It is a nice island, but it is mainly made for bikes.
In case you are not able to walk or cycle long, there are several options on the island to join for the meeting as well!
There is a tandem bike specially made for people who are disabled. If you need this, tell me and I’ll make sure it is reserved for the date.
Another option is a scoot mobile which can be rented at Soepboer. Also, make sure to be on time to make a reservation.
There are also 2 taxi services on the island in case you can’t walk or be on a bicycle at all.
The last meeting was wonderful with 30 people so I will put a max on 30 people again!
Do know that you bring small stickers and stamps! Bigger ones won’t fit unfortunately :<
