New year speech 2016

First of all, welcome to Zaltbommel. We have a fine programme again this year.

On behalf of the board of the KIVI Region Utrecht, welcome. Before we raise our glasses, a few words briefly. 2015 has been a year of events for us. I would first like to dwell on the board. Roelof is going to leave us and start a study through his employer. We will really miss him as he is the one I float on. Then Gijs. In our midst is his wife Corry. In May, we were suddenly told that Gijs was seriously ill. Even before we could pay him a visit, he was no longer there. Gijs was the oldest member of our board. Gijs' activities were the most successful. We were also able to meet our target because he had to be repeated. Gijs had good relations within rws and his activities were usually full within 2 dough. Gijs was a man of few words. But you could count on him.

I would also like a minute's silence.

KIVI we are here again. All members. Networking! Our association is again facing decline in membership. So too in our board. We are looking for two members and someone to represent our board on the membership council. We are going to be active about it. We are going to put something on our page.

To conclude we have a lot in store again in 2016. Follow us on our website.

I want to raise a glass with you. And conclude with the words. Wishing you a fine, happy and technical year.

The Stadskasteel Zaltbommel is a museum in Zaltbommel, located in the Maarten van Rossum House. It is a regional museum and located in the city centre of Zaltbommel.

We still traditionally manage to find a suitable location for our New Year's Eve event every year.
So this year we are going just across our border to Zaltbommel. Zaltbommel is an old fortified town and easy to reach by car and public transport
